The Lamando's cabin air filter is installed behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. You can access it by removing the glove compartment. Taking the 2021 Lamando as an example, it belongs to the compact car category with the following dimensions: length 4615mm, width 1826mm, height 1425mm, wheelbase 2656mm, fuel tank capacity 51 liters, trunk capacity 480 liters, and curb weight 1325kg. The 2021 Lamando is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, delivering maximum power of 131PS (96kW) and maximum torque of 225Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
The air filter for the Lamando is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. You can see it by opening the glove compartment. I need to press the clips on both sides inward to fully lower the glove compartment. Inside, there's a plastic cover—just pry it open with a bit of force, and the filter is hidden inside. When replacing it, pay attention to the airflow arrow direction on the filter to avoid installing it backward, as this would significantly reduce its filtering efficiency. I usually check it every 10,000 kilometers, especially in spring when there's a lot of willow catkins that can easily clog the filter and reduce airflow. Buying a matching filter online costs only about 20-30 yuan, much cheaper than at the dealership. If you're handy, it can be done in just five minutes.
