Replace your car’s cabin air filter once a year or every 15,000 km, whichever comes first.
The cabin air filter (pollen filter) cleans the air that enters the car through the ventilation. A clogged filter stops less pollen and fine dust, and the windows mist up faster. Many garages replace it during the annual service.
- Check the service book for where the filter is and which type you need
- Have it replaced during the service or do it yourself following the manual
- When fitting, follow the airflow arrow
- Note the date and mileage
