Where is the cabin air filter located on the Fengyun 2?
3 Answers
The cabin air filter of the Fengyun 2 is located in the engine compartment, specifically positioned in the driver's cabin. To replace it, there are several screws under the right-side wiper. After removing these screws, gently flip the seal upwards to access the cabin air filter. The Fengyun 2 is a vehicle produced by Chery, classified as a compact car. In terms of dimensions, the car measures 4188mm in length, 1686mm in width, and 1480mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2527mm. For powertrain specifications, the Fengyun 2 is equipped with a 1.5L inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. It delivers a maximum power output of 80 kW, peak torque of 140 N·m, and generates 109 horsepower. The chassis configuration features a front MacPherson strut independent suspension and a rear torsion beam non-independent suspension setup.
Last time I helped my dad replace the air filter on his Chery Fulwin 2, I studied its location - it's right behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. You'll need to fully open the glove box and firmly press the clips on both sides inward until the entire glove box hangs down. Then you'll see a black rectangular cover about this size. Unscrew the two screws on the left and right of the cover, open it, and you can pull out the filter. When I replaced it myself, I found the space particularly tight - it's quite challenging if you have large hands. A T20 Torx screwdriver works best; flathead screwdrivers tend to slip. When reinstalling, pay attention to the arrow direction on the filter - it indicates airflow direction. Installing it backward will significantly reduce airflow. I usually replace it every six months, or more frequently if you often use the external air circulation mode or drive in dusty areas.
Fengyun 2 owners, let's talk about the cabin air filter hidden behind the glove box on the passenger side. The key to removing the glove box is to simultaneously press the clips on both sides inward until you hear a click, then the entire box can be lowered. You'll then see a cover plate secured by two Phillips screws. The filter is rectangular—remember to compare the orientation of the old and new filters when replacing. I was also puzzled by the tricky design location during my first replacement, but later realized it's a Chery signature design. The actual operation takes about 15 minutes and saves over 100 yuan compared to dealership service. Don't cheap out on filters—activated carbon ones remove odors but reduce airflow slightly, while standard versions are more breathable. Must replace before summer, otherwise musty smells will blast when turning on the AC.
