Where is the cabin air filter located in the Citroen C-Quatre?
2 Answers
The cabin air filter of the Citroen C-Quatre is located in the engine compartment, beneath the wiper cover panel. Remove the insulation cotton to access it. Below is relevant information about cabin air filters: 1. Introduction: The cabin air filter is a filter installed in the car's air conditioning system. It can absorb dust particles, alleviate respiratory discomfort, reduce irritation for allergy sufferers, and protect the air conditioning cooling system. 2. Function: It ensures the filter fits tightly against the housing, preventing unfiltered air from entering the cabin. It adsorbs moisture, soot, ozone, and odors from the air, preventing car windows from fogging up and ensuring clear visibility for drivers and passengers, thereby enhancing driving safety. 3. Replacement Interval: The cabin air filter should generally be replaced every 10,000 kilometers.
The air filter for my old Citroen C-Quatre is quite tricky to locate – it's hidden beneath the windshield wipers. You'll need to pop the hood, first removing that row of black plastic covers below the windshield using a T20 screwdriver to undo all the clips. After lifting the cover, spot that rectangular plastic box behind the air intake? Just squeeze the clips on both sides and pull it out – the filter is tucked inside that box. Last time I changed it myself, I ended up covered in dust. Special reminder: the location is identical for both sedan and hatchback versions, but be extra careful with older cars as the plastic parts get brittle – never force them open in winter.
