Where is the air conditioning filter of Audi A4 located?
2 Answers
The Audi A4 has two air conditioning filters, and their specific locations are as follows: 1. One is located next to the passenger side foot mat. 2. The other is in the engine compartment, near the front windshield of the car, and can be seen by opening the decorative panel. Here is some information about the air conditioning filter: 1. The air conditioning filter functions like a mask, filtering dust from the air. Generally, it needs to be replaced every 7,500 to 10,000 kilometers. 2. Depending on the local weather conditions and usage, if there are frequent sandstorms or haze, or if the air conditioning is used extensively, the replacement interval can be adjusted accordingly.
I recently helped a friend replace the air conditioning filter in their Audi A4. It's located inside the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat, and you'll need to remove the entire glove box to access it. There are several clips or screws at the bottom of the glove box – gently loosen them with a screwdriver to move the compartment aside, and you'll see the filter housing revealed near the windshield. I recommend purchasing a standard-sized filter for DIY replacement to save money and hassle, but avoid forcing it open to prevent damaging plastic components. Generally, the filter should be replaced every 10,000 to 15,000 kilometers, especially when driving in dusty urban areas – delayed replacement can cause odors and reduce AC efficiency. If doing it yourself, wear gloves to avoid scratches and remember to turn off the AC system for safety first.
