The cabin air filter of the Dongfeng Fengxing SX6 is installed under the front passenger seat, near the left foot position, towards the inner side. Below are the steps to replace the cabin air filter for the Dongfeng Fengxing SX6: 1. To replace the cabin air filter, you will need a flat-head screwdriver to pry open the clips of the filter cover. 2. Press the new filter into a "()" shape, first inserting the inner corner, then the outer corner. The inner corner can be pushed in. 3. Gently wiggle the filter a few times to adjust its position. Insert one corner first, then the other, until the entire edge is smoothly embedded. Then wiggle it a few more times to fine-tune the position. 4. Pay attention to the arrow direction on the filter—it should face upward because the evaporator is located above. Air passes through the filter first before entering the evaporator.
The air filter for the Dongfeng Fengxing SX6 is located inside the glove compartment in front of the front passenger seat. After opening the glove box, you can see a clip cover, and the filter is inside. I've changed it myself several times before—it's quite simple. First, empty the glove box, then gently press the clips on both sides to tilt the glove box downward, and you'll see the filter housing. Before starting, it's best to check a manual or video guide to avoid forcing the clips, as they can break easily. This filter is crucial—it should generally be replaced once a year or every 10,000 kilometers. Otherwise, the air inside the car can become stale, dusty, and may even trigger allergies. When purchasing, make sure to get the correct model. Genuine parts are available online, and cheaper compatible versions work well too. Changing it yourself saves 100–200 yuan compared to going to a 4S shop, and the result is cleaner and more comfortable.
