Where is the cabin air filter of Nissan Qashqai located?

The cabin air filter of Nissan Qashqai is located behind the interior trim panel on the right side of the accelerator pedal. You can replace the cabin air filter by removing the interior trim panel. The cabin air filter is an important component in the car's air conditioning system, and this component needs to be replaced regularly. If not replaced for a long time, it will affect the performance of the car's air conditioning system and the health of the passengers. Here is an introduction to the functions of the car's cabin air filter: 1. Filter impurities, tiny particles, pollen, bacteria, industrial waste gas, and dust from the air entering the cabin from the outside. 2. Maintain the cleanliness and freshness of the air, improving the air quality inside the car.
As a long-time owner who frequently drives a Qashqai, I've found that the cabin air filter location is actually quite easy to locate. It's behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. You'll need to open the glove box first, then push inward on both side clips to completely remove the glove box. Behind it, you'll see a small cover - pry it open to reveal the filter housing. I should mention that there might be slight variations depending on the model year of your Qashqai, but most are located there. Changing the filter is super important because prolonged use leads to dust and bacteria buildup, which affects cabin air quality - especially problematic for allergy sufferers. I recommend checking it quarterly or replacing it every 10,000 km. All you need is a screwdriver, and beginners can learn how to do it by watching a YouTube tutorial. Don't look in the wrong place - some mistakenly think it's in the engine bay, which is completely incorrect.
