Where is the air conditioning filter located in the Q5?
2 Answers
The Q5's air conditioning filter is located in two places: one under the car's engine hood, near the front windshield, and the other under the glovebox in the center console inside the car. The car's air conditioning system is responsible for heating, cooling, ventilation, and in some models, air purification. The Q5 is a dynamic and versatile SUV with dimensions of 4629mm in length, 1898mm in width, and 1655mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2807mm. The Q5 perfectly combines the body design of a sports car, efficient power and responsive handling, the off-road safety performance of an SUV, and the excellent comfort and flexible interior space of a station wagon, inheriting many of the advantages of the third-generation top-tier SUV, the Audi Q7.
I've changed the cabin air filter on my Audi Q5 several times. It's usually located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side, and you need to remove a plastic panel to access it. It's quite easy to DIY - just unscrew a few screws with a screwdriver, gently pull out the cover, and the filter sits in its slot. Just prepare a new filter (they're inexpensive) and you can finish the job in about 10 minutes. Remember to replace it regularly, like once a year or every 15,000 km. A clogged filter makes cabin air quality worse, and you might sneeze from inhaling dust or pollen. From a health perspective, this affects your family's breathing comfort, especially during long drives when using AC makes things fresher. My tip: pick a sunny day to do this to avoid dirt falling in.
