Where is the Fiat Viaggio's Cabin Air Filter Located?
2 Answers
Fiat Viaggio's cabin air filter is located inside the cover panel on the left side below the glove box. Here are the related steps for accessing the cabin air filter: 1. Near the position where the passenger places their left foot, there is a cover panel on the left side. Remove this panel. The panel is secured with clips and can be pulled out directly without worrying about damage. 2. After removing the panel, you will see the black cover of the cabin air filter. 3. There are two screws on the black cover. Use a screwdriver to remove these screws. 4. After removing the screws, there is a clip underneath. Pry it slightly to remove the black cover. 5. Once the black cover is removed, the cabin air filter will be visible. If you want to install a new cabin air filter, make sure not to install it backward during installation. There is an arrow indicator on the cabin air filter.
The air filter for my Fiat Viaggio is located behind the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat. Opening the glove box reveals the filter, usually under a plastic cover, rectangular in shape and about the size of a small book. I've changed it myself a few times, so here's a tip: first open the glove box, locate the clips or screws on the side or bottom, gently remove them, and you'll have access to the filter housing. When pulling out the old filter, be careful not to inhale dust—wearing a mask is advisable. For the new filter, it's recommended to choose an OEM or high-efficiency one, replacing it every 1-2 years or every 20,000 kilometers; otherwise, it could affect the air quality inside the car, leading to allergic reactions or odors. The tools needed are simple—a screwdriver will do—but if you're not familiar, it's best to watch a video tutorial first to avoid damaging the clips. After replacement, test the airflow from the AC to ensure it's properly installed. Frequent driving can clog the filter faster, so timely replacement can improve AC performance and save on fuel costs.
