What the cabin air filter does

Cabin air filter replacement swaps out the filter that cleans the air coming into your car through the heating and AC system. It traps dust, pollen and debris before they blow through the vents. When it clogs, the system has to work harder and less air gets through.

Signs it's time

  • Weak airflow from the vents, even on high.
  • A musty or stale smell when the air comes on.
  • More dust on the dashboard than usual.
  • Windows that are slow to clear.

How often to change it

Many manufacturers recommend every 15,000 to 30,000 miles, or once a year. Pollen, dust and humid weather can clog it faster, and a damp filter can start to smell.

How we handle it

The filter usually sits behind the glove box or under the hood near the windshield. We check it during routine maintenance and send you a photo if it's dirty. It's usually a quick replacement, and nothing gets done until you approve it.

Problems we fix

  • Musty smell

    A damp, dirty filter can hold odors.

  • Dusty dashboard

    A worn out filter lets more dust through the vents.

FAQ

Cabin Air Filter Replacement questions, answered

Common questions about our cabin air filter replacement.

Will a new cabin filter help with allergies?

It can cut down on the pollen and dust coming through the vents. Some filters also have a carbon layer that helps with odors.

Is the cabin air filter the same as the engine air filter?

No. The engine air filter cleans the air going into the engine. The cabin filter cleans the air you breathe inside the car.

Why does my AC smell musty?

A dirty cabin filter is a common cause. Mold or mildew on the AC evaporator can cause it too. We'll check both.

Can you change it during an oil change?

Yes. We can check it and replace it while your car is in.
