Where is the cabin air filter located in the BAIC Senova D70?
2 Answers
The cabin air filter of the BAIC Senova D70 is located behind the left cover panel under the glove compartment on the passenger side. After removing the glove compartment, you can see an evaporator cover panel on the left side. Remove this cover to access the cabin air filter. It's recommended to check the filter for clogging during each maintenance service. If the blockage is not severe, it can be cleaned and reused. The Senova D70 is a mid-to-high-end sedan brand under Beijing Automotive Group, featuring distinctive hawk-eye style headlights composed of 12 LED daytime running lights that provide optimal safety illumination for drivers. The interior of the Senova D70 primarily features a black color scheme, with red perforated seats and black stitching, creating a classic black-and-red color combination.
As a car owner who drives frequently, I know that the cabin air filter of the BAIC Senova D70 is usually hidden behind the glove compartment in the dashboard, which is the main entry point of the air conditioning system. To locate it, you first need to remove the glove compartment, which is typically secured by clips or screws—don’t pull it forcefully, as this could damage the interior plastic panels. The placement is quite reasonable, and replacing it generally doesn’t require professional tools; you can do it yourself at home. However, I recommend checking it every 10,000 kilometers or so, as a clogged filter can reduce airflow from the AC and may cause a dusty smell inside the car, making the ride uncomfortable. The filter gets dirty faster in summer when the car is used more often, so I usually keep a spare in the car—just in case I get stuck in traffic and need fresh air. The steps are simple: open the glove compartment, remove the clips, take out the old filter, and install the new one.
