The cabin air filter in the Wuling Zhiguang is located inside the glove box. First, remove the black plastic panel above the passenger footwell, then disconnect the negative battery terminal. Next, remove the body control module and its mounting bracket (secured by two 12mm nuts). After that, take off the panel on the left side of the passenger footrest to access the cabin air filter. The Wuling Zhiguang is a microvan with body dimensions of 3797mm (length) × 1510mm (width) × 1820mm (height) and a wheelbase of 2500mm. Power comes from a 1.2L 76hp L4 naturally aspirated engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, delivering a maximum power output of 56kW.

I've been driving the Wuling Zhiguang for freight transport for several years, and I'm very familiar with the location of the cabin air filter—it's right behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. To access it, you generally need to remove the glove compartment, which is usually secured with clips or screws. Once removed, reach inside and feel for a plastic cover; pry it open to take out the filter. Don't underestimate this spot—if dust clogs the filter, the AC will blow out a musty smell, and in summer, it can easily cause respiratory issues. I check it every three months and replace it more frequently if there's a lot of dust from hauling goods. An original filter only costs a few dozen yuan, making it a simple and cost-effective solution. If you find it tricky to locate, refer to the user manual or video tutorials rather than forcing it, to avoid damaging any parts.

As a newbie buying a used Wuling, I was completely lost trying to locate the cabin air filter. After some trial and error, I discovered it's hidden inside the glove box. Here's how: First open the compartment in front of the passenger seat - it might be stuck so give it a firm pull. Inside you'll find a small flap, lift it to reveal the filter. When I changed it for the first time, the old one was completely clogged with dust. The moment I installed the new one, the air became fresher and my driving mood improved significantly. Pro tip: Make sure to get the correct filter model, otherwise it won't filter properly. Generally replace annually, but shorten the interval if you drive in dusty urban areas. It's super easy to DIY - saves repair costs and teaches you basic maintenance.

As a car enthusiast who frequently maintains the Wuling Sunshine, the air conditioning filter is definitely located behind the glove box. Open the box and check—common removal methods involve unlocking the clips on both sides or loosening the screws, then revealing the filter cover and gently pulling it out. When replacing, ensure the arrow direction aligns with the airflow to avoid reverse installation and potential blockage. A dirty filter not only affects air quality but also increases the blower's workload, causing unusual noises. Regular cleaning or replacement ensures system efficiency. The location isn’t complicated, making DIY maintenance convenient and efficient.
