Last time I replaced the Lavida's cabin air filter myself, it was quite simple. First, open the glove compartment on the passenger side. There are two clips inside that can be released by pushing them upwards. Then remove the old filter housing and pull out the dirty filter, remembering to check that the arrow direction faces downward. I bought the new filter online for only 20 yuan, saving a lot compared to the 120 yuan charged by repair shops. The whole process took just 10 minutes, and the only tool needed was a screwdriver. I replace it every six months to improve the air quality inside the car, preventing stuffiness and protecting the fan from damage. The key points are to be careful not to break the clips and to wear gloves to keep out dust. With a bit more practice, it becomes even easier.

I always pursue efficiency when changing the AC filter: open the glove box, remove the internal slot, take out the old filter and replace it with a new one, making sure the arrow markings are correctly aligned with the airflow direction. No need for a full set of tools—bare hands will do. It's recommended to do this twice a year to prevent dust buildup and musty odors. DIY saves time and effort compared to going to a shop, and the air becomes noticeably fresher afterward, with reduced AC noise. Don’t overlook this small step.

I was extra careful about safety when replacing the filter: After opening the glove compartment, loosen the screws and remove the cover plate. When pulling out the old filter, be careful not to scatter dust and debris. The arrow on the new filter must align with the airflow direction. A regular wrench is sufficient for the job, and the whole process can be completed within 10 minutes. A reminder: Wear a mask if there's a lot of dust, as incorrect installation may block the duct and damage the motor. Beginners might want to watch a video tutorial first.

I did the math: replacing the Lova's cabin air filter myself only costs 15 yuan for parts, while a 4S shop charges 100 yuan. The steps are simple: open the glove box, remove the fasteners, pull out the old filter and insert the new one. It takes less than 15 minutes and doing it every six months maintains good air quality, saves fuel, and protects health. When parts online, choose reputable brand stores for reliable quality.

As someone who often helps friends with car repairs, I recommend beginners take it step by step: first locate the glove compartment release button on the passenger side, press it to remove the fastener; the filter housing is on the back, remove the old filter and carefully note its orientation; install the new filter with the arrow pointing toward the air intake, making sure not to install it backwards. The only tool needed for the entire process is your hands. After completion, test the AC to check for any unusual noises. It's recommended to replace it every 6 months to prevent clogging and maintain cooling efficiency.
