The cabin air filter in the 2013 Peugeot 308 is located in the front engine compartment on the passenger side. The replacement method is as follows: 1. Open the hood and unscrew the bolts near the passenger-side windshield; 2. Remove the sound insulation padding and take out the old cabin air filter for replacement. The 2013 Peugeot 308 is a compact car with the following dimensions: length 4558mm, width 1805mm, height 1505mm, wheelbase 2612mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 56 liters. It is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, producing a maximum power of 86kW at 6000 rpm.
In my 2013 Peugeot 308, the cabin air filter is typically located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. The design is quite user-friendly and not too hidden. You'll need to open the glove box first, then look for the clips or small screws on the side. Gently push or unscrew them to reveal the filter location. This arrangement makes replacing the filter much easier, saving you from crawling underneath. I recommend replacing it every year or 20,000 kilometers, as a dirty filter can degrade cabin air quality and affect respiratory health, especially important for allergy sufferers. I've changed mine several times – it's not difficult with online tutorial videos. Just prepare the correct filter model and avoid operating in dusty conditions. Remember to turn off the AC before starting and keep the area clean. The whole process takes about ten minutes and can save you some maintenance costs. The glovebox location is standard design shared by many vehicles, though the Peugeot 308's details are particularly well executed.
