The replacement method for the Camry's cabin air filter is as follows: 1. Open the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat and look inside to find a rectangular cover for the cabin air filter; 2. Gently press the clips of the rectangular cover inward to remove it, revealing the cabin air filter housing inside; 3. Remove the cabin air filter housing to replace the filter. Taking the 2019 Camry as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4885mm, width 1840mm, height 1455mm, wheelbase 2825mm, fuel tank capacity 60 liters, and curb weight 1530kg.
Honestly, as a long-time Camry owner, I can say changing the AC filter yourself is super easy and practical. The whole process happens behind the glove compartment on the passenger side—no tools needed. Just open and empty the glove box, then gently push the clips or small dampeners on both sides to release them. Next, locate the filter cover, slide it open to remove the old filter, and pay attention to the arrow direction—the airflow arrow should point downward (toward the cabin) when installing the new one. Insert the new filter of the same model, align the arrow, push it in, close the cover, and lock the clips back in place. I did it at home in just five minutes, and afterward, the air from the AC felt much fresher with no musty smell. I recommend replacing it every six months or annually, especially during high-pollen seasons—you’ll notice a clear improvement in air quality and AC efficiency. It saves money and boosts health. Check a YouTube video beforehand if you’re unsure, but trust me, it’s really not hard.
