Nissan X-Trail's cabin air filter is located under the glove box on the passenger side. The replacement steps are as follows: 1. Remove the glove box. 2. Open the cabin air filter cover. There are 3 clips on the top of the cover plate, press downward to release them. 3. Install the filter. Pay attention to the arrow direction on the filter and install it accordingly. Here's some relevant information: The cabin air filter can filter dust from the air and needs regular replacement. Generally, it should be replaced every 7,500-10,000 kilometers. It's best to replace the cabin air filter when seasons change between summer and winter to ensure clean air inside the vehicle. During routine car maintenance and cleaning, you can also remove the cabin air filter, clean off the dust, and dry it with a hair dryer.
Regarding the location of the Nissan X-Trail's cabin air filter, I found it right behind the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat. I've been driving this car for over five years, and the filter needs to be replaced during every maintenance. Remember to open the glove compartment first—there's a small switch or latch inside; just pull it out gently. After removing the glove compartment, you'll see a plastic cover. Remove the cover, and the filter is hidden there. It's actually quite convenient to replace it yourself. Just make sure the new filter is aligned correctly when inserting it; otherwise, airflow will be restricted. I recommend replacing it every six months because, after prolonged use, the filter accumulates dust and leaves, affecting the air quality inside the car and preventing discomfort while driving. It's best to turn off the air conditioning system before starting for safety. You can easily buy filters from roadside stalls for just a few dozen yuan, saving the cost of going to a repair shop.
