4 Answers
The air conditioning filter in the Teramont is located behind the glove box. Here is some relevant information: 1. The car's air conditioning filter is a component that needs to be replaced regularly. Generally, it should be replaced every 10,000 kilometers. The air conditioning filter is an important part of the air conditioning system, as it filters the air. 2. If the air conditioning filter is not replaced for a long time, it will affect the performance of the car's air conditioning and the health of the passengers. If the air quality in your area is relatively poor, you can choose a product that can filter PM2.5 when replacing the air conditioning filter, so you don't have to worry even when using the external air circulation. When purchasing an air conditioning filter, always choose genuine products from well-known brands and ensure the model is compatible with your car.
I've been driving the Touareg for over two years. The cabin air filter is located in front of the front passenger seat, hidden beneath the dashboard. You'll need to remove the entire glove compartment first - the filter sits in a slot on the rear wall of the glove box, usually secured by two or three small screws. It took me quite a while to find it the first time since I didn't realize the glove box could be completely removed. Later I learned from the manual: open the glove box door, remove any small items inside, unscrew the side and bottom screws, then gently pull to detach the glove box, revealing the filter housing. I recommend checking and replacing it every 10,000 km or 12 months. Old filters accumulate dust and mold easily, causing bad odors and health issues. After changing it twice, I've gotten quite handy at it - you can buy a good brand online for just 20 yuan. DIY replacement saves both money and hassle.
As someone who frequently services Volkswagen vehicles, I'm well aware that the Touareg's cabin air filter is located in a small compartment behind the glove box on the passenger side footwell. After opening the glove box, remove all contents to clear space, then release the plastic clips at the bottom left and right corners (apply moderate force to avoid breakage) to detach the entire glove box and access the filter location. When replacing the filter, it's best to use a flathead screwdriver to gently pry open the filter cover, remove the old one, and install the new filter. Many people neglect this area and then complain about odors from the vents when it gets clogged. I recommend choosing a dual-layer activated carbon filter for effective PM2.5 filtration and better safety. Regular replacement also prevents blower motor blockage and potential damage to the AC system.
As a stay-at-home mom, when driving the Touareg with my kids, I noticed the air filter is located near the front passenger side on the right. After opening the glove box, there's a small compartment containing it. I consulted mechanics, and they suggested removing two small screws after opening the glove box door to access the filter. Doing it myself seemed a bit troublesome, so I just went to a nearby auto shop and got it replaced for ten bucks. I usually check it during seasonal transitions in spring and autumn—clean filters are good for my baby's breathing and help prevent colds.
