2 Answers
Method for replacing the air conditioning filter in an Elysee: 1. In some models of this vehicle, the air conditioning filter is located under the front windshield, covered by a drainage trough. To replace the filter, first open the engine hood, remove the clips securing the drainage trough, and take off the trough to access it; 2. In sedan models, the air conditioning filter is situated in the storage compartment under the front windshield on the passenger side, making it extremely convenient to replace. Simply remove the storage compartment to access it. The Elysee has a body length, width, and height of 4427mm, 1748mm, and 1476mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2652mm. The vehicle's engine delivers a maximum power of 86kw and a maximum torque of 150nm.
Last time I replaced the Elysee's cabin air filter myself, it was quite simple—it's located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. First, empty the glove box, then pinch the clips on both sides toward the center with your hands, and the entire glove box can be lowered down. Next, you'll see a rectangular plastic cover; use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the screws on the cover, then gently pull out the old filter. When inserting the new filter, pay attention to the arrow direction—it's usually installed facing the rear of the car. Finally, put the cover back and restore the glove box. The whole process takes less than 20 minutes, but it's recommended to replace it every six months, especially when there's an odd smell when the AC is on. Buying the filter yourself costs around 50 yuan, saving you 200-300 yuan compared to the dealership.
