Where is the air filter located in the Fit?
2 Answers
The air filter of the Fit is located in the blower behind the glove box on the passenger side. To replace the filter, you need to remove the glove box and then open the air filter cover. The air filter is an important component of the air conditioning system and needs to be replaced regularly. Generally, it is recommended to replace the air filter every 10,000 kilometers. More information about the Fit is as follows: 1. The Fit is a hatchback launched by GAC Honda, with dimensions of 4065 mm in length, 1695 mm in width, and 1525 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2530 mm. 2. The Fit adopts Honda's new family-style front face design concept, integrating the front grille with the headlights to highlight a sharp and cool appearance. The side of the body features a unique and cool blade-style double waistline design, and the dynamic rear styling is paired with LED taillights, presenting a more premium texture.
As a veteran Fit driver for many years, I must tell you the cabin air filter location is actually quite obvious - it's behind the glovebox on the passenger side. First open the glovebox, sometimes it gets stuck on the latch but just give it a gentle push to remove it, then you'll see the filter. I've changed it several times myself and always found it quite straightforward - no special tools needed, just a few minutes to complete. Remember to check the filter orientation - there's an arrow that should point toward the front of the car. Installing it backwards affects AC performance. Also, I recommend replacing it every six months or 10,000 km, especially during summer when AC usage is high. A dirty filter makes the car smell funky and harms your health. Regular maintenance saves repair costs and keeps cabin air fresh.
