The common method is to replace the air conditioning filter by opening the car's air conditioning housing. Here is a detailed introduction about the Honda CR-V: Exterior: The exterior has been upgraded, featuring four body colors: Starry Night Blue, Crystal Black, Platinum White, and Elegant Gold.

Replacing the air conditioning filter on a Honda CR-V is actually quite simple, and I've done it several times in my garage. The location is behind the glove compartment on the passenger side: first, sit inside, open the glove box, locate the plastic clips or limiters on both sides, gently press and remove them, then pull down the glove box to reveal the filter housing cover. Unscrew the screws or unlock the clips, pull out the old filter, being careful not to let dust scatter. When installing the new filter, pay attention to the arrow indicator, insert it facing the rear or downward direction of the car, ensuring a snug fit. Reattach the cover and glove box, and the whole process takes about 5 minutes. It's recommended to replace it once a year or when there's a strong odor, as it affects the air conditioning cooling and cabin air quality. Choose the correct filter model to prevent clogging. Remember to turn off the engine for safety, doing it yourself saves hundreds in repair costs and helps keep the engine running efficiently.
