Default Have you changed your cabin Air Filter???

I changed the cabin air filter in my 06 Civic LX Coupe. It is now 15 months old and has 30,000 miles on it.

Check out the pictures of the old filter with the new one.

Have you considered changing yours?

Hrm, i didnt even really know that these cars had these. I have a 93 do you know where mine would be located? I am a smoker and mine can probably use a change.

the majority of cars that have them are under the dash sumwhere on the passenger side. u could blow cig smoke when its on max ac and see where it draws in air and then u will find ur filter

Ok sounds good, i might have to give that a try. My ac does not work so good and i was going to get it recharged. Adding this new filter will probably help as well.

for everyone asking about the 92-00 models, if it's not as cold as usual, it just needs to be recharged.

Wow talk about a huge improvement. I just changed mine today, they were pretty dark and there was alot of tree particles trapped in the filter. After changing it I noticed it blows a lot harder (must have been all that stuff restricting the flow). At first I thought I wonder if $35 for the filters would be worth it... right after I said good investment. It also got rid of that musty smell that was coming through my vents.
