The air conditioning filter of the new Santana is located inside the glove box in front of the front passenger seat. You can see it by removing the glove box. Here is an introduction to the new Santana: 1. The recommended replacement cycle for the air conditioning filter in the Volkswagen New Santana is 1 year or 20,000 kilometers. If the air quality in the vehicle's area is particularly poor, it is advisable for the car owner to replace the air filter in advance to ensure that the interior always maintains fresh air. When replacing the air conditioning filter, please note that there is an arrow indication on the filter. During installation, align it with the direction indicated by the arrow and make sure not to install it backwards. If installed incorrectly, the air conditioning filter will not function properly. 2. Without the air conditioning filter, these particles can enter the cabin, not only polluting the car's air conditioning system and reducing the performance of the cooling system, but also causing allergic reactions, lung damage, and irritation from ozone exposure, leading to mood disturbances and unpleasant odors, all of which can affect driving safety.
Hey, I just got a new Santana, and the cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. You open the passenger door, that glove box, you need to empty it first, then carefully remove the entire box because there are clips at the bottom holding it in place. Once you take it off, there's a small cover inside, lift it up and you'll see the filter itself. Remember to replace it every six months or a year at best, it prevents odors and dust, otherwise, when you turn on the AC, there's a musty smell that can affect your breathing. I've changed it a few times myself, buying a matching filter for about 10 yuan, DIY is simple and saves money, whereas going to a repair shop would cost extra. Anyway, the location isn't hard to find, just a little effort and you can get it done.
