2 Answers
The air conditioning filter of Roewe 550 is located behind the engine compartment sealing strip. The replacement cycle for the air conditioning filter is approximately 1 year or every 10,000 kilometers driven. Taking the 2014 manual Zhixuan version of Roewe 550 as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4648mm, width 1827mm, height 1483mm, with a wheelbase of 2750mm. The 2014 manual Zhixuan version of Roewe 550 features a MacPherson independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.8L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 133PS, a maximum power of 98kW, and a maximum torque of 170Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
I've been driving for over a decade, especially the Roewe 550 model. The cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side, which is quite a hidden spot. I remember it was a bit tricky to find the first time. Turns out you just need to open the glove box to see a clip or screw securing the inner lining - release it and the filter slot is revealed. Changing it yourself isn't difficult, just need basic tools like a screwdriver. If you don't replace a dirty filter promptly, the AC airflow weakens, cooling performance drops in summer, and musty odors or mold can develop, affecting health. I recommend annual replacement, or more frequently in dusty areas. Save on maintenance costs by buying filters online for just a few bucks each. Always turn off the AC power before starting for safety. Making this a regular maintenance habit keeps the cabin air much fresher.
