2 Answers
The cabin air filter of the Haima M3 is located behind the glove compartment in the passenger side. Remove the glove compartment, and you will find a panel behind it. After removing the panel, the filter will be visible. Taking the 2017 Haima M3 as an example, it is a 4-door, 5-seater compact car with the following body dimensions: length 4553mm, width 1737mm, height 1495mm, and a wheelbase of 2600mm. The 2017 Haima M3 is equipped with a 1.5L 4-cylinder inline engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 111PS and a maximum power output of 82kW at 6000rpm. It is paired with a 6-speed continuously variable transmission (CVT).
I remember the air filter for the Haima M3 is usually located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. When you open the compartment and look deep inside, there's a plastic clip or cover. Just pinch it to remove, and you'll see the filter. I've replaced it myself a few times—it's quite simple and only requires a small tool. The filter is responsible for trapping dust and pollen from the air. If left unchanged for too long, it can develop mold and odors, affecting health. It's recommended to check it every six months or 10,000 kilometers, and more frequently in areas with poor air quality. When doing it yourself, take it slow to avoid breaking the clips. If you can't locate it, search for video tutorials online—it's easy to learn and saves money on shop visits.
