2 Answers
The cabin air filter in the Changan Yuexiang V5 is located above the glove box on the driver's side. The functions of the cabin air filter are as follows: 1. Separates dust, pollen, and grinding particles from the air; 2. Ensures clean air in the cabin and prevents bacterial growth. Here are the specific details about the Yuexiang V5: 1. The Yuexiang V5 is a compact car. Its body dimensions are 4415mm in length, 1710mm in width, and 1475mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2515mm. 2. The Changan Yuexiang V5 features a MacPherson strut front suspension and an H-type torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 114 hp, a maximum power of 84 kW, and a maximum torque of 145 N·m. It is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
As an experienced owner of the Yuexiang V5, I've found that the cabin air filter is usually hidden behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. You open the glove box, and there might be a small panel or clips inside—removing it will reveal the filter slot. Remember to replace it regularly; I typically change it once a year or every 15,000 kilometers. Otherwise, a clogged filter can weaken the airflow from the AC and allow dust to enter, affecting the air quality inside the car. DIY replacement isn’t difficult, but be careful not to break the clips—just use a Phillips screwdriver. After installing a new filter, the air from the AC feels fresher and helps reduce odors. The design of this location is quite convenient, eliminating the need for a dealership visit—just buy a compatible filter online, saving both money and time. If the glove box feels a bit tight, a gentle push should do the trick; avoid using too much force to prevent cracking the plastic parts.
