Where is the air filter located in the Mondeo?
2 Answers
The air filter in the Mondeo is located inside the glove compartment on the passenger side. The functions of the air filter are: 1. To prevent impurities in the air from entering the air conditioning system and damaging it; 2. To maintain a good air environment for passengers in the car and protect their health; 3. To prevent glass fogging. Taking the 2020 Mondeo Fashion model as an example, it is a mid-size car with body dimensions of: length 4873mm, width 1852mm, height 1470mm, a wheelbase of 2850mm, a fuel tank capacity of 62.5 liters, and a trunk capacity ranging from 516 to 986 liters.
I've been driving a Mondeo and found that the cabin air filter is located behind the glove box on the passenger side. To access it, you need to remove a few small screws at the bottom with a screwdriver. The box comes out easily, and after replacing it with a new filter, the air in the car immediately becomes fresh and comfortable. I enjoy doing it myself—buying the filter online costs just a few dozen bucks, much cheaper than going to a repair shop. It's recommended to replace it every 12 months or after driving 15,000 kilometers, otherwise, dust buildup can cause odors and affect the AC performance. Remember to choose the right filter model for your car—there are plenty of tutorials online, and DIY is super fun. Just don’t forget to turn off the AC system before working to ensure safety.
