The method for replacing the cabin air filter of Baojun 510 is as follows: 1. Remove plastic screws: First unscrew the two external plastic screws; 2. Remove the sponge protective panel; 3. Remove the support plate: Push the support plate beneath the filter firmly to remove it; 4. Take out the old filter and install the new filter by reversing the removal steps. The cabin air filter serves five main purposes: 1. Ensures tight sealing: It keeps the filter tightly sealed against the housing to prevent unfiltered air from entering the cabin; 2. Filters solid particles: It separates solid impurities such as dust, pollen, and abrasive particles from the air; 3. Adsorbs pollutants: It adsorbs moisture, soot, ozone, odors, carbon oxides, SO2, CO2, and other pollutants from the air; 4. Prevents window fogging: It prevents water vapor from fogging up the car windows, ensuring clear visibility and driving safety. It also provides fresh air to the cabin, preventing occupants from inhaling harmful gases and ensuring driving safety. Additionally, it effectively sterilizes and deodorizes; 5. Maintains clean cabin air: It ensures the cabin air remains clean and free from bacterial growth, creating a healthy environment. It effectively separates solid impurities from the air and intercepts pollen, preventing allergic reactions in passengers and ensuring driving safety.
As a long-time owner of the Baojun 510, I change the cabin air filter myself twice a year. First, prepare a T20 Torx screwdriver and a new filter (model-specific ones cost about 20 yuan). The key is the glove compartment on the passenger side: after opening it, you'll see plastic stoppers on both sides—unscrew them counterclockwise with the screwdriver. Then press both sides of the glove compartment inward with your hands, and the entire box can be removed. At this point, you'll see a rectangular filter cover; simply unclip the fasteners with your fingers to pull out the old filter. Remember to align the arrow on the new filter toward the front of the car, otherwise it will affect filtration efficiency. I recommend cleaning any leaves or dust from the filter housing while you're at it. Finally, reinstall the glove compartment stoppers in reverse order. The whole process takes about half an hour and saves over 200 yuan in labor costs compared to dealership service.
