Where is the cabin air filter located in the Wuling Hongguang S?

[LouisLynn]

The cabin air filter of the Wuling Hongguang S is located inside the glove box on the passenger side. The steps to replace the cabin air filter are: 1. Open the glove box on the passenger side and lift it upwards to remove it; 2. After exposing the cabin air filter, take out the plastic strip outside the filter; 3. Pull the white paper strip, and then the cabin air filter can be removed; 4. After replacing the cabin air filter, follow the reverse order of the disassembly steps to reinstall it properly. The body dimensions of the Wuling Hongguang S are 4400mm in length, 1680mm in width, and 1770mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2720mm.

Last time I helped my neighbor replace the air conditioning filter in their Wuling Hongguang S, I found it right behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. First, press firmly on both sides of the glove compartment to remove it, then look deeper inside and you'll see a black plastic cover. Pry open the clips to reveal the rectangular filter. Remember, the filter has an airflow direction arrow—installing it backwards will affect filtration efficiency. Changing the filter on this model requires no tools at all; it takes just three minutes and saves you 50 yuan in labor costs. Just buy a 20-yuan filter online and replace it yourself. For northern car owners, I recommend getting an activated carbon filter to catch willow catkins and dust.

I've been using my Hongguang S for cargo hauling for three years, changing the filter every month. The location is super simple: sit in the passenger seat, look down at the glove box, press both sides of the box inward while pulling it out, and the whole box comes off. The rectangular plastic cover inside is the filter compartment, which can be pried open with a fingernail. When pulling out the filter, check how much dust has accumulated—if it's black, replace it immediately. Remember to buy filters sized 128×198×20mm; don't cheap out on thinner ones, or dust will leak through the gaps, making the replacement pointless. Always replace it before the rainy season, or the AC will smell like dirt.

My 2018 Hongguang S's AC had a bad smell, and the mechanic taught me to find the filter behind the glove box. After removing the glove box, I saw a gray frame with an arrow. Pinching the clips on both ends and pulling it out, I extracted the old filter full of leaves. Beginners, take note: Don’t drop screws into the filter compartment—I’ve seen someone who had to dismantle the entire dashboard because of it. For filters, it’s recommended to choose ones with more folded layers for better PM2.5 filtration. Changing it yourself is super easy—the 4S shop charges 80 yuan, but I bought one online for just 16 yuan.

Last week, I just replaced the air filter for my family's Hongguang S. Bend down to the passenger footwell area, open the glove compartment, and firmly lift the bottom upwards until you hear two clicks to remove it. The horizontally installed white frame inside is the filter housing. When pressing the elastic clips on both sides to pull out the old filter, I found a dried-up cockroach in the gap... So, I recommend using a vacuum cleaner to clean the housing every quarter when replacing the filter. Be sure to choose OEM-spec filters when purchasing, as third-party ones that are too thick can prevent the glove compartment from closing properly.

As an automotive repair apprentice with hands-on experience on Wuling models, the Hongguang S filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. Here's a tip: First, empty the glove compartment, then press both sides of the compartment inward with both hands. When you feel resistance, apply downward force to remove it. After exposing the black filter compartment cover, use your thumb to push outward on the raised part of the cover. Important reminder: Before installing a new filter, clean the dust inside the compartment with a damp cloth; otherwise, the filter will clog faster. During the rainy season, it's recommended to replace it every three months—don't wait until it molds, as it can affect respiratory health.
