The Cabin Air Filter is the last line of defense between exterior pollution and your Nissan’s passenger compartment. Thanks to its anti-bacterial and stink-proof properties, genuine Nissan HVAC Cabin Air Filters hamper widespread pollutants like dirt, organic fibers, construction dust, and road debris from breezing in via your Nissan’s HVAC vents. Additionally, top-quality Nissan Cabin Air Filters help prevent bugs and leaves from getting into your vehicle’s HVAC, intercepting them before they affect the system’s performance.
With time, your car’s Cabin Air Filter may get congested or worn, especially if you drive in areas hazardous air quality or high concentrations of allergens. Many Nissan vehicles can benefit from regular Cabin Air Filter replacements every 15,000-30,000 miles. However, one of the top ways to determine when it’s time to replace your Nissan’s Cabin Air Filter is by referring to the owner's manual or being on the lookout for common signs that your Cabin Air Filter is not working properly. You may suspect your Cabin Air Filter is malfunctioning if you notice musty odors coming from your Nissan’s vents when you turn your A/C to cooling, heating, fanning, or defrosting. Additionally, if the fan is on its highest setting and the airflow is slow or imperceptible, an excessively contaminated Cabin Air Filter may be at fault. Lastly, though whistling noises and a loud HVAC system are not that common with Cabin Air Filter issues, they do happen occasionally. If those in the passenger compartment sense any of these problems and your Nissan is running as usual, consider replacing the Cabin Air Filter with a Nissan replacement part to get your HVAC back up to speed.
Replacing a Cabin Air Filter is a service that many car owners choose to do themselves or with their nearest Nissan technicians. If you decide to DIY a Cabin Air Filter replacement, double-check the owner’s manual for the part’s precise location (though Cabin Air Filters are typically behind the glovebox). In the majority of cases, you’ll need a screwdriver, a rag, and a small vacuum to get the job done. Yet you should follow the directions in your Nissan’s manual to know you’re going about replacing your Cabin Air Filter the right way.
