The air conditioning filter of the Volkswagen Tiguan L is located behind the glove compartment in front of the front passenger seat. More information about the air conditioning filter is as follows: 1. The car air conditioning filter should be a regular brand that is suitable for the vehicle model and has guaranteed quality. 2. The air conditioning filter is a type of filter installed in the car's air conditioning system, which can absorb dust particles and protect the air conditioning cooling system. 3. It is recommended to clean the air conditioning filter once a month. Regular cleaning of the air conditioning filter can extend its service life. When replacing the air conditioning filter, you can use a special cleaner to clean the blower and air ducts.
I just replaced the air filter for my Tiguan L, which is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. You have to lie down completely to see it, and there's a trick to removing the glove box: first, empty the glove box, then press both sides inward with your hands until you hear a click, and the whole thing can be removed. You'll see a long plastic cover—pinch the clips and pull it off, then the filter can be pulled out like a book. When installing the new one, remember the arrow on the filter indicates the airflow direction, which must face the interior of the car. Last time I forgot the direction, and the airflow was reduced by half. For those driving 20,000 km a month, it's recommended to replace it every three months. For regular use, replacing it every six months is safest, especially in northern areas where willow catkins can clog the filter quickly.
