FAQ About Car's Cabin Air Filter, Cabin Filter and Fuel Filter
 
What does an air filter, cabin air filter or fuel filter do?
All auto filters are designed to prevent harmful debris from entering any parts where air and fluid flows, including your engine, radiator, fuel lines and more. Once a filter is no longer performing its intended function, decreased performance - even engine damage - can result.
 
You've been reaping the benefits of filters your entire life. If you've ever used a furnace or air conditioning system at home, you've had to replace a filter from time to time. If you haven't, well, you might want to go and check those out too. You can send us a thank you letter later - if you want.
 
In the meantime, here's what each automotive filter does:
 
Air filter: Prevents harmful debris, dirt and contaminants from entering your engine.
 
Cabin filter: An implementation that began appearing in vehicles in 2002, it prevents dust, pollen, dirt and other pollutants from entering your car through your A/C and heat vents.
 
Fuel Filter: Keeps dirt, debris and contaminants from clogging your fuel lines and causing erratic, unstable fuel performance and reduced fuel economy.
 
How often should an air, cabin air or fuel filter be replaced?
Generally, it's recommended that you get your filters replaced every 12 months or 12,000 miles, but check your owner's manual for specifics about your vehicle's filter replacement schedules.
 
 
What happens to air, cabin air or fuel filters as they get older?
Any filter - home, auto or otherwise - will eventually age and become contaminated with pollutants and debris. When that happens, the filter loses its effectiveness and hinders the performance of the parts it is supposed to protect.
 
When your air filter is dirty, your engine is forced to work harder, resulting in poor fuel economy, higher emissions and, possibly, a loss of engine power. In turn, as a worst-case scenario, a clogged cabin air filter can lead to under-performance of the A/C system, causing weak air flow from the cabin vents. It can also lead to unwanted, unfiltered air in the cabin. As for a mucked-up fuel filter, that'll land you with a weakened fuel supply to injectors, a reduction in engine power, poor acceleration and lousy fuel economy - not to mention a potential breakdown.
 
What is the benefit of replacing an air, cabin air or fuel filter?
The benefits are car-saving and performance-enhancing. They protect vital car parts by keeping harmful debris at bay so your car runs right. Filters also ensure your car runs more efficiently. The cleaner your filter, the more it allows for the maximum flow of air or fluid through the system. Like a clogged drain, a dirty filter starves the system of the vital air or fluid and makes each system it protects work harder to do its job. Once filters are dirtied, they should be replaced.
 
Step-By-Step Guide For Auto Cabin Air Filter Replacement
 
STEP 1
Open the glove box.
Open the glove box and take out the contents.
 
STEP 2
Remove the limiting stop arm.
The limiting stop arm is on the right side of the glove box. Just slide it off the pin.
 
STEP 3
Release the glove box.
Grasp the front and back of the glove box, squeezing them toward each other until the side clamps pop free. Now that the sides are free, you can drop down the entire glove box, so you can see the faceplate to the cabin air filter channel.
 
STEP 4
Remove the old cabin air filter.
Lift the latches on the sides of the faceplate and slide it out of the way, opening up the filter compartment. Now you can simply pull out the old cabin air filter, being careful not to scatter any dust, dirt and trash from the filter into your car. As you remove the old filter, notice which way the arrows are facing. They indicate the direction of the airflow.
 
STEP 5
Clean filter chamber and check seals and gaskets.
Before you install a fresh, new HUADI PLOW cabin air filter, vacuum the filter chamber, then wipe it with a damp cloth to remove any stray contaminants. Check the condition of gaskets and seals to make sure they don't need changing as well.
 
STEP 6
Install the new cabin air filter.
Make sure the new cabin air filter matches the old one. Double check to make sure the arrows on the new filter are pointing in the same direction as the old filter you took out, and slide the new filter in.
 
STEP 7
Replace and secure the glove box.
Once the filter's in place, just replace the faceplate, snap the glove box back in place, reinstall the limiting stop, and put everything back in the glove box.
