1 Answers
In older Buick Regal models, the cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment on the front passenger side. The cabin air filter is a specialized filter designed for purifying the air inside the vehicle cabin, utilizing highly efficient adsorption materials such as activated carbon composite filter cloth made of activated charcoal and long-fiber non-woven fabric. It features a compact structure that effectively filters smoke odors, pollen, dust, harmful gases, and various odors. The filter also efficiently captures particulate impurities, achieving oil filtration and air purification performance. The replacement steps for the Buick Regal cabin air filter are as follows: 1. Use appropriate tools to pry open the side panel of the glove compartment; 2. Remove the four screws securing the glove compartment using tools and take out the glove compartment; 3. The black box inside is the housing for the cabin air filter; 4. Open the housing, there is a hidden latch on the side, simply pry open the cover; 5. Remove the dirty cabin air filter inside. If it's not very dirty, use an air gun or similar tool to blow off the dust. If it's very dirty, it's recommended to replace it with a new filter; 6. Insert the new filter, ensuring the arrow on the filter faces downward, then close the cover, reinstall the glove compartment, and finally secure the side panel.
