The air conditioning filter of Peugeot 4008 is located under the glove box on the passenger side, near the center. To access it, you need to remove the left foot panel on the passenger side and the buckle panel under the glove box. It's important to note that there are two air conditioning filters in the Peugeot 4008, arranged vertically. When removing them, take the upper filter first, followed by the lower one. The Peugeot 4008 is equipped with two engines: a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine and a 1.8-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.6-liter turbocharged engine has a maximum power of 125 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm, while the 1.8-liter turbocharged engine has a maximum power of 155 kW and a maximum torque of 300 Nm. The front suspension of this car uses MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension uses a torsion beam non-independent suspension.
I remember during the years I drove the Peugeot 4008, the cabin air filter was always quietly tucked behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. As soon as you open that glove box, you can see a few small plastic clips or screws at the bottom. Gently press or unscrew them, and the glove box can be removed or lowered, revealing the filter housing hidden inside. It's so convenient to replace it yourself. Like me, a guy who loves to save money, I just buy a new filter and follow the online step-by-step video instructions. The whole process takes less than ten minutes. Regularly replacing it is crucial, especially in dusty areas. When the filter gets clogged, the airflow from the AC weakens, and it might even cause the air inside the car to smell musty. I recommend checking it every 15,000 kilometers or once a year—don’t wait until you start coughing to think about it.
