Where is the air conditioning filter located in the Nissan Patrol?

The air conditioning filter in the Nissan Patrol is located inside the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat. You can see it after removing the glove compartment. The air conditioning filter is a type of filter installed in the car's air conditioning system, which can absorb dust particles, reduce respiratory discomfort, minimize irritation for allergy sufferers, and protect the air conditioning cooling system. The dimensions of the Nissan Patrol are: length 5164mm, width 1999mm, height 1955mm, with a wheelbase of 3074mm. It is equipped with a 5.6L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 293 kW and a maximum torque of 555 Nm, paired with a 7-speed automatic transmission.
I found that the air filter for the Nissan Patrol is located behind the glove box on the passenger side. You need to open the glove box first, and for some models, you may have to unscrew a few fixing screws to remove the box and reveal a small cover. Once opened, you can pull out the filter. I've changed it several times myself—just a Phillips screwdriver is all you need, simple and hassle-free. No need to spend much on tools, and you can buy matching filters online at a low cost. Replacing the filter helps the AC system run more smoothly, avoiding weak airflow or bad odors. It's recommended to change it every 10,000–20,000 kilometers or once a year, especially during seasonal changes when dust is more prevalent—replacing it early protects your health. Don’t forget to align the arrow mark when reinstalling it; putting it in backward is a common mistake for beginners and can affect filtration. Making it a regular habit keeps the car’s air fresh and your mood light.
