How to remove the cabin air filter of BAIC Senova X35?
2 Answers
The car's cabin air filter is located in the engine compartment. The exact position varies by vehicle model, but it's usually near the engine. You can refer to your vehicle's user manual for specific instructions. The clip mechanism is relatively simple. You can remove it by pulling the clip outward. After releasing the clip, open the plastic housing to take out the cabin air filter.
I've been driving the BAIC Senova X35 for over two years now, and I've changed the cabin air filter several times by myself—it's quite easy. Just sit in the passenger seat, fully open the glove compartment, and make sure it's emptied to avoid any obstructions. You'll notice small clips on both sides of the glove box; gently press them, and the glove box will either drop down or detach completely, revealing the cabin air filter slot behind it. The slot has a cover with clips or screws, which can be removed with a gentle push or twist. After taking out the old filter, be sure to pay attention to the arrow direction on the new filter—align it with the airflow direction to avoid installing it backward, as this could affect air quality. The whole process doesn’t require any professional tools; just use your hands, saving both effort and money. I replace the filter every six months, and the air feels much fresher, with no odors in the car. Driving feels more comfortable, and I don’t have to spend money on mechanics.
