The air conditioning filter of the Peugeot 3008 is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side, and the glove compartment needs to be removed to access it. Below is an introduction to the air conditioning filter: 1. The air conditioning filter generally refers to the cabin air filter. The function of the car cabin air filter is to filter the air entering the cabin from the outside, improving air cleanliness. The typical filtering substances include impurities in the air, such as tiny particles, pollen, bacteria, industrial exhaust, and dust. 2. The purpose of the cabin air filter is to prevent these substances from entering the air conditioning system, thereby protecting the system, providing a good air environment for passengers, safeguarding their health, and preventing window fogging. 3. Regularly check and replace the cabin air filter according to the maintenance schedule. In dusty or heavily trafficked areas, replacement may be needed earlier. 4. If the airflow from the vents significantly weakens, the filter may be clogged. Inspect the filter and replace it if necessary. To prevent system damage, always ensure the filter is installed. Using the air conditioning system without a filter may damage the system. Do not clean the filter with water. When cleaning or replacing the cabin air filter, always turn off the air conditioning system first.
I found that the cabin air filter for the Peugeot 3008 is usually located behind the glove box. Open the glove box, and you'll see a small cover at the back—just open it to access the air filter. When I replace the cabin air filter myself, the process is quite simple: first, empty the glove box, locate the clips on both sides, and gently pry them open or twist to release. Avoid using excessive force to prevent damaging the plastic parts. Replacing it is important because a dirty filter can degrade the air quality inside the car, especially during spring when pollen levels are high, leading to sneezing and coughing. I recommend checking it every year or around 10,000 kilometers—if it looks black or smells bad, replace it immediately. Buying and replacing the filter yourself costs just a few dozen yuan, which is more convenient than going to a shop, and you can also pick up some handy tips. Remember, if there's a strange odor when you turn on the AC, it might be time for a replacement.
