2 Answers
Emgrand GS air filter replacement method is: 1. Open the glove box cover on the passenger side; 2. Press the fixing buckle of the cover and pull it outward with force; 3. After removing the rear cover, take out the entire glove box to expose the air filter; 4. Pull the old air filter outward and replace it. Functions of the air filter: 1. Ensure the air filter fits tightly against the housing to prevent unfiltered air from entering the cabin; 2. Separate dust, pollen, and solid particles from the air; 3. Adsorb moisture, soot, ozone, odors, and carbon oxides from the air; 4. Prevent the car windows from fogging up, maintaining clear visibility for the driver and passengers; 5. Ensure clean air in the cabin, preventing bacterial growth and creating a healthy environment.
Changing the air conditioning filter for the Emgrand GS is actually not difficult. I've been driving this car for several years and doing it myself regularly saves a lot of money. Generally, first open the glove compartment on the passenger side and empty its contents; then locate the clips at the bottom or side of the glove compartment, gently push to remove them; at this point, you'll see a small cover, which is the filter housing; open the cover and pull out the old filter; then install the new filter, making sure the arrow on the filter points in the direction of airflow to avoid installing it backward; finally, reassemble the cover and glove compartment. If you don't change the air conditioning filter, the air inside the car can become dirty and prone to odors; I recommend changing it every 10,000 kilometers, preferably before summer; choosing an OEM or carbon-infused filter is more durable; after installation, start the car and test the airflow—if the resistance is too high, it might be installed incorrectly; the whole process requires no tools, just be careful not to damage the plastic parts, and it can be done in five minutes.
