Chery Flagcloud 2's A/C filter is located beneath the protective panel under the front windshield, specifically below the right wiper blade glass. You can access it by removing the decorative panel under the glass with a Phillips screwdriver. Functions of the car A/C filter: 1. Ensures the filter tightly adheres to the housing, preventing unfiltered air from entering the cabin; 2. Filters out solid impurities such as dust, pollen, and abrasive particles from the air. The Flagcloud 2 comes in 5 variants: Base, Standard, Comfort, Luxury, and Premium. In terms of dimensions, the Flagcloud 2 measures 4393mm in length, 1682mm in width, 1424mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2468mm.

I've been driving the Chery Flagcloud 2 for 5 years and have replaced the cabin air filter several times. The filter is hidden quite deep in this car, located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. To replace it, first remove the glove box by pressing the clips on both sides simultaneously towards the middle with your fingers - this will detach the whole unit. After removal, you'll see a plastic cover panel. Loosen the four screws with a Phillips screwdriver, then pull out the cover to reveal the filter. When installing the new filter, pay attention to the arrow direction - don't put it in backwards. Last time I changed it, I found the old filter completely clogged with leaves and dust, no wonder there was a strange smell coming from the AC. Actually, doing it yourself is quite simple and saves you unnecessary expenses at the repair shop.

I remember the first time I looked for the location of the Chery Flagcloud 2's cabin air filter. I searched the car for a long time, and in the end, it was the auto repair shop guy who told me. It turns out it's right behind the glove box on the passenger side—you have to remove the glove box first. The operation is quite simple: there are two retaining clips on the left and right inside the glove box. Just squeeze them hard, and the entire glove box comes off. Inside, there's a black rectangular plastic cover plate. Remove the four screws, and you can pull out the cabin air filter. A tip here: empty the glove box before removing it, and don't lose the screws. I replaced it once before the rainy season last year, and the filter was already moldy—no wonder the AC had a strong sour smell. Now I check it every six months to keep the air fresh and protect the AC system.

My neighbor's Chery Cowin 2 had a strong odor from the AC, and upon inspection, it turned out to be a cabin air filter issue. The filter is hidden behind the glove compartment on the passenger side—just remove the glove box to access it. The steps are quite simple: press the left clip inward while pulling outward, then do the same for the right side. Once the glove box is removed, you'll see a rectangular filter housing. Replacing the filter by opening the lid took only 10 minutes, saving 80 yuan in labor costs. It's recommended to change the filter every 10,000 km, especially in northern areas where willow catkins can easily clog it during spring. Those with basic DIY skills can easily handle this—genuine filters online cost just 20 yuan.

During a routine for my old Chery Flagcloud 2, I discovered how well-hidden the cabin air filter location was—it actually required removing the glove box. First, empty all items from the passenger-side glove compartment. Upon opening it, you'll notice plastic protrusions on both the left and right inner sides. Pinch them with both hands, push towards the center, then pull downward, and the entire box comes off. Inside, there's a black plastic casing about the size of an A4 paper—that's the filter housing. When installing the new filter, pay attention to the airflow direction arrow pointing downward; otherwise, filtration efficiency will be compromised. Opt for a dual-effect filter with activated carbon—it costs about ten yuan more but excels at odor elimination. Before using AC in summer, always check the filter's condition, as excessive dust can impair cooling performance.

When studying the Chery Flagcloud 2's AC system, I found the filter's location behind the glove compartment quite reasonable. For removal, first empty the glove box, then press the left and right clips inward simultaneously until you hear a click to detach the entire glove box assembly. After exposing the mesh filter cover, remove four screws. Replace the filter when it turns black and hardens - it's most prone to water accumulation and mold during rainy seasons. DIY replacement tip: Use a strong flashlight for alignment as the slots are tricky. Avoid cheap no-name filters - standard ones collapsed within three months in my experience. Pro tip: Check the side stopper rubbers for aging when reinstalling the glove box.
