Where is the air conditioning filter located in the Song?
2 Answers
The air conditioning filter in the Song is located behind the glove box in the blower. Its function is to separate solid impurities such as dust, pollen, and abrasive particles from the air. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 160PS, a maximum torque of 245Nm, and a maximum power of 118kW. The maximum power speed is 5200rpm, and the maximum torque speed ranges from 1600 to 4000rpm. It is paired with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Song has a length of 4600mm, a width of 1830mm, a height of 1700mm, a wheelbase of 2660mm, a minimum ground clearance of 190mm, and a body weight of 1600kg.
I've been driving the BYD Song for several years and know that the cabin air filter is usually located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side, which requires removing the glove box to access. The positioning is quite cleverly designed to allow air to flow directly from the dashboard to the cabin, but you need to be careful with the clips during removal to avoid damage by forcing them. I recommend replacing the filter every six months, especially in big cities where air pollution is heavy. A dirty filter can lead to slow airflow, unpleasant odors, and even allergies. Changing it yourself isn't difficult: open the glove compartment door, locate the inner clips and gently press to remove them, the filter housing is right behind. Make sure the new filter matches the OEM size - you can buy one online for around twenty yuan. After replacement, the ventilation system becomes much more efficient, greatly improving driving comfort.
