Where is the MG6's Cabin Air Filter Located?
2 Answers
The MG6's cabin air filter is located on the right side of the engine compartment, near the bottom of the windshield wipers. The recommended replacement interval for the cabin air filter is approximately 20,000 kilometers. Taking the 2020 MG6 as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4704mm, width 1848mm, height 1466mm, with a wheelbase of 2715mm. It has a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters and a trunk capacity ranging from 499 to 1383 liters. The 2020 MG6 is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 133kW and a maximum torque of 285Nm. It is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission. The front suspension features a MacPherson strut independent suspension, while the rear suspension utilizes a multi-link independent suspension.
I've been driving my MG6 for several years, and changing the air conditioning filter by myself is quite simple. It's hidden behind the front glove box, so you'll need to remove the glove box first. Open the glove box door and carefully observe the bottom edge—you'll see several plastic clips or screws. I usually gently press the clips or unscrew the screws, and the entire glove box can be slowly pulled out. Don't use too much force to avoid damaging anything. Inside, there's a small slot where the filter is tucked in. Just pull out the old one and replace it with a new one. I recommend changing it every six months because it filters dust, pollen, and odors from outside the car, which is important for respiratory health. Nowadays, with poor air quality, the filter gets clogged easily. If you notice a musty smell when you turn on the AC, it's time to replace it. Getting it changed at a shop is expensive, but doing it yourself saves a few hundred bucks. Buying the same model filter online is cheap and convenient. Just make sure to get the right size and don't mix up the model number. The first time might take a bit longer to get familiar with the process, but take your time and you'll be fine.
