The method to replace the air conditioning filter in a Luxgen U6 is as follows: 1. Open the glove compartment on the passenger side, press the plastic buckle inside, and remove the glove compartment; 2. Unscrew the screws on the cover plate and remove the cover plate; 3. Pull out the old air conditioning filter to replace it. Taking the 2019 Luxgen U6 as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4628mm, width 1825mm, height 1637mm, wheelbase 2720mm. Its 1.6L turbocharged engine has a maximum horsepower of 167ps, maximum power of 123kw, and maximum torque of 245nm.
I recently helped a friend replace the air conditioning filter in his Luxgen U6, and the process was actually quite simple and hassle-free. First step, locate the glove compartment on the passenger side, open it, and completely remove all items inside to clear the space. Second step, check the inner sides of the glove compartment where there are clips or fixing screws on both sides; gently press down to release them—no tools are needed, but patience is required to avoid forcing them. Third step, after removing the glove compartment, you'll see a small rectangular plastic cover for the filter behind it with two clips on top; push them inward to open it. Fourth step, pull out the old filter, paying attention to the direction of the arrow. When inserting the new filter, ensure the arrow points toward the front of the car—getting it wrong can affect filtration efficiency and may cause the AC to blow less cool air. Finally, reassemble the glove compartment in reverse order. The whole process takes less than 10 minutes. It's recommended to replace the filter every 10,000 kilometers or every six months to maintain fresh air inside the car, which is especially important for people prone to sneezing during pollen season. A dirty filter can block the vents and increase fuel consumption, so replacing it early saves money and promotes health. DIY is very cost-effective—the filter costs just a few dozen yuan online, and the only tool needed is your hands, making it safe and convenient even for beginners.
