Changan CS95's cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment. To replace the cabin air filter, the glove compartment must be removed. The specific steps are as follows: 1. Open the glove compartment, there is a clip on the right side, pinch the pointed end of the clip to push the telescopic rod out to the left; 2. There is a knob on each side of the glove compartment, unscrew them to remove the knobs; 3. Remove the glove compartment; 4. Inside the glove compartment, you will find a square plastic cover, pry it off; 5. You will see a rectangular cover with clips on both sides, press the clips to open the cover, and you will find the cabin air filter. The Changan CS95 measures 4949mm in length, 1930mm in width, and 1790mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2810mm. It is powered by a Blue Whale 2.0T direct-injection engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 232 HP, maximum power of 171 kW, and maximum torque of 360 Nm, paired with an Aisin 6AT transmission.

I remember changing the air conditioning filter on the Changan CS95, and the location was quite easy to find. Open the glove compartment on the passenger side, remove all the items inside, then press both sides of the glove compartment towards the middle to squeeze it, and the entire glove compartment can be folded down. At this point, you'll see a rectangular cover panel secured with clips, which can be easily removed with a gentle pull. The filter is hidden behind it, and remember to check the arrow direction on the filter before installing the new one. I previously went to the 4S store for maintenance and saw them operate very quickly, but when I tried it myself, I realized you have to be careful not to break the clips.

I previously helped a friend deal with the unpleasant odor in the CS95's air conditioning, which was caused by a dirty air filter. The filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. I recommend adjusting the seat to its furthest back position for easier access. No tools are needed to remove the glove compartment—just press the elastic clips on both sides inward, and the entire compartment will drop down. Then, remove the cover to replace the filter; the whole process takes no more than ten minutes. A handy tip: don’t rush to unpack the new filter—take it inside first to confirm the correct orientation before installing it to avoid dust contamination. It’s advisable to check the filter before turning on the heater in winter, which is especially important for people with sinus issues.

The air filter design in this car is quite user-friendly, located right in front of the passenger seat. After emptying the glove compartment, press the limiters on both sides inward, and the entire glove box can be flipped down. Once the cover plate is removed, you can see the parallel-arranged filter slots. When replacing the filter, I usually take the opportunity to clean the air intake vent. Holding the old filter up to the light often reveals it clogged with willow catkins and dust. Remember to test the air flow after installation to ensure there are no unusual noises. For car owners, this is a great DIY method that can save you two hundred bucks.

Replacing the air conditioning filter is a quarterly maintenance task I always perform. On the Changan CS95, it's located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. After emptying the compartment, press the clips on both sides to lower the glove box, then remove the white cover with arrows to access the filter. Note that the new and old filters should be installed in the same direction, with the arrow pointing toward the driver's seat. Last time, I noticed the OEM filter was thicker than the online-purchased one, but third-party cheaper options also work. I recommend doing this during seasonal transitions in spring and autumn, and take the opportunity to clean the ducts. Simple maintenance like this can prevent mold in the air conditioning system, which is especially helpful for people prone to allergies.

Novice car owners might worry about damaging components, but the design of the Changan CS95 is quite considerate. The cabin air filter is located inside the glove compartment on the passenger side and can be replaced without tools. Simply press the limit clips on both sides of the glove compartment to flip it downward, remove the white cover, and then pull out the old filter. During my first attempt, I almost broke the clips by applying too much force, but later realized a gentle press is sufficient. It's advisable to prepare a vacuum cleaner to clean up any fallen dust. Before installing the new filter, let it sit for half an hour to dissipate odors. Monthly checks can extend the air conditioning system's lifespan.
