The cabin air filter of the new Changan Yuexiang V5 is located beneath the glove compartment on the passenger side. You can access it by removing the glove compartment. Below is relevant information about the cabin air filter: 1. The recommended replacement interval for the cabin air filter is approximately 10,000 kilometers. There are two types of cabin air filters: one without activated carbon and another with activated carbon. 2. A high-quality cabin air filter can capture dust particles, alleviate respiratory discomfort, reduce irritation for allergy sufferers, enhance driving comfort, and protect the air conditioning cooling system. Cleaning instructions for the cabin air filter are as follows: 1. If the filter is dirty, clean it by blowing compressed air from the reverse side. 2. Hold the air gun about 5 cm away from the filter and blow at a pressure of 500 kPa (5.0 kgf/cm²) for approximately 2 minutes. 3. The cabin air filter tends to accumulate a significant amount of dust. Use tools like a blower or high-pressure air to remove loose dust, but never wash it with water.

Last time I drove my Changan Alsvin V5, the AC started emitting a foul odor. Upon checking, I found the cabin air filter was dirty—it's located behind the glove compartment. You'll need to empty the glove box, press the clips on both sides to remove the entire compartment, then lift the plastic cover to access and replace the filter. Don't underestimate this component—it filters dust, pollen, and prevents mold growth. Delaying replacement worsens cabin air quality and may trigger allergies, especially during winter when musty smells intensify. I replace mine regularly—every 6 months or 10,000 km—it's simple, cost-effective, and enhances driving comfort. If you can't locate the clips, just search for a video tutorial; the whole process takes about 10 minutes.

I often replace car parts myself, and the Chang'an Yuexiang V5's cabin air filter is quite easy to find behind the glove box. Open the glove box, remove the items inside, press and release the fixing clips on both sides of the glove box to take it down, then flip open the black cover inside to replace the filter. Installing a new filter immediately freshens the air and removes odors, saving on repair costs. Sharing a tip: A dusty filter can affect the air conditioning's airflow and cooling efficiency—replacing it makes the car run smoother. I buy and replace the filter myself, changing it twice a year to ensure quality.

When I first started driving, I didn't know where the cabin air filter was. After checking the manual, I found it's located behind the glove box in my Changan Yuexiang V5. I opened the glove box and carefully felt for the clips on both sides. Removing it was a bit tricky, but the filter's position is straightforward. Remember, when the filter gets old, air quality deteriorates with more dust. Regular replacement can prevent bacteria spread and maintain health. Try DIY—it saves money and teaches skills.
