Where is the air conditioning filter located in the Volkswagen Tharu?
2 Answers
The air conditioning filter in the Volkswagen Tharu is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. The air conditioning filter is a crucial component of the car's air conditioning system and requires regular replacement. Typically, it is recommended to replace the air conditioning filter every 10,000 kilometers. Prolonged neglect of replacement can affect the performance of the car's air conditioning system and the health of the passengers. The dimensions of the Volkswagen Tharu are 4453mm in length, 1841mm in width, and 1632mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2680mm. In terms of exterior design, the vehicle adopts a rock-cutting design concept, featuring prominent lines on the raised hood for a muscular appearance. The wide-body dual U-shaped full LED headlights are angled upwards, and the grille strips extend to the headlights. For the interior, the car features a horizontal design with IMD material panels, where large panels integrate the instrument cluster, display screen, and air vents into a unified layout.
Last time I changed the air filter for my Tharu by myself, it was quite simple - it's located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. I remember it happened to be during a maintenance day, and the mechanic showed me how to do it: first empty the glove compartment, then press the clips on both sides and pull the whole compartment downward. After removing the compartment, you can see a black plastic cover with arrow markings. Use a screwdriver to pry open the clips. When pulling out the old filter, there were lots of leaf debris. Just insert the new filter following the arrow direction. Reminder: you should replace it every 10,000 km or when you notice odd smells from the AC. Doing it yourself saves over 200 yuan in labor costs, and the filter only costs about 30 yuan on Taobao. Be careful not to force plastic parts during disassembly - Volkswagen's clips are quite brittle and can break easily.
