Where is the air conditioning filter located in the Laojunyue?
2 Answers
The air conditioning filter in the Laojunyue is located under the decorative panel beneath the right front wiper blade. Pull open the head cover rubber strip, and you will find a plastic clip. Use a flat-head screwdriver to pry open the clip and remove the decorative panel to access the air conditioning filter. The Junyue is a new mid-to-high-end sedan launched by SAIC-GM. "Jun" represents a high-quality, high-end image, while "Yue" carries the meaning of "breakthrough and transcendence." In terms of body dimensions, the Junyue measures 5026mm in length, 1866mm in width, and 1459mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2905mm. In terms of exterior design, the Junyue adopts Buick's new family design language, featuring smooth and elegant body lines and a highly dynamic body proportion.
Having driven for over a decade, I can tell you that the cabin air filter in older LaCrosse models is mostly hidden behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. You'll need to release the clips at the bottom of the glove box or unscrew a few screws to access the filter housing, then pull it out to check if replacement is needed. With long-term use of such vehicles, the AC system tends to accumulate dust, leading to stale air and reduced cooling efficiency. I recommend inspecting it every 10,000-20,000 kilometers—don't wait until noticeable odors appear in the cabin. When replacing it yourself, prepare a screwdriver and a damp cloth to clean around the glove box area, being careful not to let dust fall inside.
