The cabin air filter of the 4008 is located under the glove compartment on the passenger side. The removal steps are as follows: 1. Remove the decorative panel on the left side of the passenger footwell, pry open the small cover and unscrew the screw; 2. There are three clips on the left side of the decorative panel, which can be removed with a little force; 3. Open the panel below the glove compartment, there are three clips, pull out the small round button in the middle of the clips, remove the clips and then take off the decorative panel; 4. Pull out the black tube, open the white cover to see the cabin air filter, then remove the old one for replacement. In terms of power, the 4008 is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 110kW and a peak torque of 198Nm. The transmission system is paired with a 6-speed CVT gearbox.

I remember discovering the location of the cabin air filter in my 4008 shortly after I started driving it. It's located behind the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat. Open the glove box, reach inside, and you'll usually find clips on both sides—just press them to remove the entire compartment. Inside, you'll see a small drawer-like box, which is where the filter is housed. Last time I replaced it myself, it took less than ten minutes, and all I needed was a Phillips screwdriver. The placement is very thoughtful, close to the air conditioning intake, so air is filtered directly before entering the cabin. As for replacement frequency, I generally change it once a year or every 20,000 kilometers, especially when driving frequently in dusty cities—changing it early ensures better air quality and makes driving during pollen season more comfortable. This design makes the 4008 healthier and safer to drive. You might also want to check the manual for the standard procedure.

As someone who frequently tinkers with cars, I find the placement of the 4008's cabin air filter quite user-friendly—it's located in the air duct behind the glove box. Here's the step-by-step process: First, empty the glove box, locate and unscrew the fasteners or screws, then pull out the entire glove box to reveal the filter compartment. The compartment cover has a small handle—just flip it open and pull out the old filter. Basic tools like a Phillips screwdriver and your hands are sufficient. I check it every season and replace it if the air quality deteriorates or there's an odd smell. I recommend using a high-efficiency filter to block PM2.5. DIY saves money and offers peace of mind—watch online video tutorials a couple of times, and you'll get the hang of it. The easy access and installation make DIY more enjoyable.

The cabin air filter is located behind the glove box, as that's where air enters the vehicle. When dirty, it can breed bacteria and affect respiratory health, so I replace it regularly to ensure fresh air. The process is simple: remove the glove box to access the filter housing, then just pull and push to complete. Beginners will find it easier to operate from the passenger side. Don't forget to choose an activated carbon filter to prevent musty odors. This design location reduces safety risks, and after replacement, driving becomes more comfortable with less eye fatigue.

What is the original engine oil model for the Tiguan L?

The original engine oil model for the Tiguan L is 5W-40 or 0W-40 full synthetic oil. Any oil model that meets these two specifications can be used. If you want to change the oil during later maintenance, you can choose brands such as Shell, Mobil, Castrol, or Total. The viscosity of engine oil changes with temperature, so special attention should be paid to its performance under low and high temperatures. For example, in 5W-30, the first number indicates low-temperature fluidity. 5W means it can withstand low temperatures of -30°C. The smaller this number, the better the low-temperature fluidity, making cold starts smoother. The latter number represents the kinematic viscosity of the oil at 100°C. The higher the value, the better it maintains viscosity under high temperatures, which can also be understood as better lubrication performance under high-temperature conditions. The method for changing the oil in the Tiguan L is as follows: Wait for the engine temperature to drop, allowing the oil to flow back into the oil pan; Use a wrench to loosen the oil drain plug and place an oil pan to catch the old oil until no more oil flows out. Start the engine and let it run for 30 seconds to allow the oil in the main oil passage to drain; Use a special wrench to remove the oil filter; Apply oil to the seal of the new oil filter and tighten it clockwise by hand; Add the new oil through the oil filler cap on the engine valve cover. Generally, pour about three-quarters of a bottle; Start the engine and let it run for 5 minutes, checking for any leaks around the oil drain plug and oil filter. If leaks are found, perform necessary repairs; After stopping the engine, pull out the oil dipstick to check if the engine oil level is within the standard range.
