Where is the cabin air filter located in Changan Oushang?
2 Answers
The cabin air filter in Changan Oushang is located inside the glove compartment in front of the front passenger seat, and the glove compartment needs to be removed for replacement. The car's cabin air filter can separate solid impurities such as dust, pollen, and abrasive particles from the air, and also absorb moisture, soot, ozone, odors, carbon oxides, SO2, CO2, etc., with strong and long-lasting moisture absorption. Changan Oushang is a passenger car brand under the Changan Automobile Group, with products including: Changan Oushang Kosai, Changan Oushang Koshang, Changan Oushang X70A, Changan Oushang CX70T, Changan Oushang A800, Changan Oushang A600, and Changan Oushang Kosai GT.
I've been driving my Changan Oushang for several years, and I'm quite familiar with the location of its cabin air filter—usually inside the glove compartment on the passenger side. You need to open the glove box door, sometimes pressing the clips on both sides, and after removing the box, you'll find the filter housing hidden behind. This design is quite convenient, allowing you to replace it yourself. The filter's job is to trap dust and pollen from the air, keeping the cabin air fresh, which is especially important during long drives or pollen season. I recommend checking it every 10,000 kilometers—if there's a strong odor or musty smell, replace it immediately. Last time I forgot to change it, the air from the AC became a bit irritating, affecting travel comfort, but after installing a new one, it was back to normal. Remember to handle the clips gently to avoid breaking them or cracking the glove box—that's a handy tip.
