The cabin air filter of the Chana Oushang V7 is located inside the glove compartment. Unscrew the bolts at the end of the glove compartment and remove the cover to access it. The Chana Oushang V7 is a compact sedan produced by Changan Automobile, with body dimensions of 4530mm in length, 1745mm in width, and 1498mm in height, a wheelbase of 2610mm, and a curb weight of 1220kg.

I've been driving the Changan Alsvin V7 for many years. The cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side, and I've replaced it several times myself. It's actually quite easy to find. Once you remove the glove box, you can see the filter housing, which contains a white or gray filter element. I recommend replacing the filter every six months to keep the air clean and prevent odors in the car. Don't underestimate this part—if it gets clogged, the airflow from the AC will decrease, affecting cooling performance. The first time you replace it might take some time to figure out, but it'll become easier with practice, and you can save on maintenance costs.

As a new car owner who just got familiar with the Changan Alsvin V7, I found the cabin air filter located inside the glove compartment in front of the front passenger seat. A friend taught me to remove the glove box to expose the filter slot - the filter element can be pulled out easily. DIY replacement is quite simple, and choosing OEM filter brands is the safest option. Regular replacement helps prevent pollen allergies, keeps the cabin air fresh, and reduces dizziness during highway driving. I check it quarterly to avoid any inconvenience. If you're really worried about the process, watch some online tutorial videos a few times - you'll quickly learn the location and steps by trying it yourself.

Having worked in maintenance for over a decade, I can tell you that the air filter for the Changan Alsvin V7 is fixed behind the glove compartment. Just open the glove box and remove two screws to access it. The filter is placed there to trap dust, so don't be lazy about replacing it. Over time, it can clog the air ducts, leading to poor air quality. I've seen many cars with filthy filters, and replacing them immediately improves airflow. It's recommended to change the filter every six months. The filters are inexpensive, and doing it yourself saves time and effort—just a small wrench is needed. Make sure to locate it on the passenger side; don't get the wrong spot.

Health comes first. The cabin air filter is located behind the glove box in the Changan Alsvin V7, a reasonably designed position. Frequent filter replacement prevents air pollution, especially filtering out particulate matter on foggy days to protect your lungs. I regularly check its position and condition - replacement is as simple as a pull and push. Choose activated carbon fiber filter materials for better odor absorption. Don't let bacteria breed - comfortable breathing in the car brightens your driving mood. Finding the right location makes this small habit bring significant benefits to life.

What to Do When a Tire Goes Flat?

Check for possible air leaks such as punctures from nails, cuts, aging or cracking of the valve rubber. Continuing to drive with insufficient tire pressure can damage the tire. If only one tire is flat, you can choose to replace it with the spare tire and then proceed to a repair shop for further fixing. Tire repair fluid is stored in a pressurized can. When in use, it is injected into the tire through the valve, simultaneously sealing the leak and inflating the tire.

Procedure for Exchanging License Plates Between Two Vehicles

The license plate must have been registered under the original owner's name for at least one year and can only be retained for one year.
