Where is the Crown's cabin air filter located?
2 Answers
The cabin air filter of the Crown is located behind the glove box on the passenger side, near the center console. Taking the 2018 Crown model as an example, its body dimensions are: length 5020mm, width 1805mm, height 1480mm, with a wheelbase of 2925mm, fuel tank capacity of 70 liters, and trunk capacity of 510 liters. The 2018 Crown features a double-wishbone independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 2.0L turbocharged engine delivering a maximum horsepower of 235PS, maximum power of 173kW, and maximum torque of 350Nm, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
The cabin air filter in the Crown is typically located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. Opening the glove box reveals a removable inner panel, and removing it exposes the filter. With decades of driving experience, I always check this during maintenance as it's prone to clogging with leaves and dust, which affects cooling efficiency and causes odors. Among Toyota models, the Crown's design is quite intuitive—no tools required for operation, but it's advisable to turn off the engine before replacement for safety. When installing a new filter, ensure it's the correct matching model; OEM parts tend to last longer. Even beginners with decent DIY skills can handle this. Regular replacement not only boosts AC efficiency but also safeguards respiratory health, especially crucial for families with children.
