Where is the cabin air filter located on the Roewe 550?
2 Answers
The cabin air filter of the Roewe 550 is located beneath the front windshield, directly opposite the passenger seat. Generally, an original equipment cabin air filter can last approximately one year or 20,000 kilometers. In regions with severe pollution and poor air quality, the filter may need replacement before reaching 20,000 kilometers. Regular maintenance and cleaning of the cabin air filter can extend its service life. The Roewe 550 measures 4,648mm in length, 1,827mm in width, and 1,483mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,705mm. This model is equipped with the TST 6-speed oil-cooled dual-clutch automatic transmission system, Inkanet 3G digital intelligent network driving system, Start-Stop digital intelligent energy-saving start-stop system, EPB digital intelligent electronic parking system, and Configurable color-customizable digital instrument cluster system.
I remember I just changed the air filter for my Roewe 550, which is located behind the glove box on the passenger side. To access it, first open the glove box. There are usually plastic clips on both sides of the box—just press them gently inward to remove the entire box. Then, on the back panel of the box, you’ll find a square cover, which might be secured by clips or screws. Apply a bit of force to open it, and the filter will be inside. The design is very user-friendly, allowing you to replace it yourself without needing to dismantle the dashboard or hood, saving you the hassle and cost of going to a shop. The filter plays a significant role—it traps dust, pollen, and odors from the air, improving cabin air quality and protecting your family’s health. Generally, it’s recommended to check it every 15,000 to 20,000 kilometers. Replacing it isn’t expensive, costing just a few dozen yuan at most. When replacing, pay attention to the directional arrow on the filter to avoid installing it backward, and don’t use excessive force to prevent damaging the parts. The key to its well-thought-out placement is ease of maintenance, allowing car owners to DIY anytime.
