How to Replace the Skoda Cabin Air Filter?
2 Answers
Skoda cabin air filter replacement method is as follows: 1. Open the glove box halfway and lift it upwards with force to remove it; 2. Remove the filter cover to access the cabin air filter; 3. Take out the old cabin air filter and replace it with a new one. The cabin air filter of the Magotan is located behind the glove box on the passenger side, and the glove box must be removed to replace it. Taking the Skoda Octavia as an example, the Skoda Octavia is a compact car under SAIC Skoda, with body dimensions of 4675mm in length, 1814mm in width, 1460mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2686mm. The Skoda Octavia is equipped with an inline 4-cylinder 4-valve TSI gasoline engine, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
Last time I changed the air conditioning filter for my Skoda myself, it was really simple and saved money. The operation is in the footwell area on the passenger side. First, remove the glove box—some are fixed with screws that need a Phillips screwdriver to loosen, while others have clips that can be removed directly. Then locate the filter housing, open the cover, and pull out the old filter. When inserting the new filter, make sure the arrow aligns with the airflow direction to avoid reduced airflow. The whole process takes at most 15 minutes, and all you need is a screwdriver or even just your hands. I replace it once a year, or whenever there's heavy dust in the car or an odd smell when the AC is on. Regularly changing the filter improves cabin air quality, reduces allergens, and saves money on repair shop visits. Remember to wear gloves to keep your hands clean.
