Where is the cabin air filter located in the Changan Eado?
2 Answers
The cabin air filter of the Changan Eado is installed behind the glove box on the passenger side. Below are the specific details about the Eado: 1. Vehicle Positioning: The Eado is a compact sedan under the Changan brand, with a wheelbase of 2700 mm, and dimensions of 4730 mm in length, 1820 mm in width, and 1505 mm in height. 2. Powertrain: The Eado is equipped with two types of engines: one is a 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine, and the other is a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine delivers 128 horsepower and a maximum torque of 161 Nm, paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a CVT. The 1.4-liter turbocharged engine produces 158 horsepower and a maximum torque of 260 Nm, mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I used to drive a Changan Eado and have replaced the cabin air filter myself several times. It's located inside the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat. First, you need to open the glove box and carefully look for plastic clips or screws securing it at the bottom or sides. Gently remove them to create some space to lower the glove box, and you'll find the filter housing hidden behind. Just open the cover to remove the old filter and install the new one. I recommend checking and replacing it every six months, otherwise accumulated dust will make the air smelly and reduce airflow efficiency when using the AC. Always turn off the engine and AC before operation, wear thin gloves for dust protection, and make sure to buy the correct OEM-compatible filter model. Beginners who worry about breaking clips can watch online tutorial videos, but if it seems troublesome, just visit a nearby repair shop - paying for professional service brings peace of mind. I've saved quite some money doing it myself while learning basic car maintenance knowledge.
