Where is the cabin air filter located in the C3XR?
2 Answers
The cabin air filter in the C3XR is located in the central tunnel next to the front passenger's left foot. Use tools to remove the two bolts and take off the cover plate. After removing the cover plate, you will see another bolt inside. Remove this bolt and take off the cover plate to access the cabin air filter. The C3XR refers to the Citroën C3XR, a car produced by Dongfeng Citroën based on the concept car CXR, adopting Citroën's ARTECH design language. In terms of body dimensions, the Citroën C3XR measures 4262mm in length, 1748mm in width, and 1557mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2655mm, positioned as a compact SUV.
I recently replaced the cabin air filter on my Citroën C3-XR, which is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. To open the glove box, gently press down on the clips on both sides to lower it completely. Then you'll see a square plastic cover—use a screwdriver or simply pry it open with some force. The filter is hidden inside. When removing the old filter, note the direction of the arrow, and align the new filter accordingly during installation. It takes just ten minutes and a small tool to do it yourself, very convenient. By the way, a dirty cabin air filter can pollute the air inside the car, causing odors or allergies. It's recommended to check it every six months or 15,000 kilometers to maintain AC efficiency and healthy breathing. Don't underestimate this small part—it's especially important during spring and summer pollen seasons.
