The Peugeot 3008's air filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side, and the glove compartment needs to be removed to access it. The air filter, also known as the cabin air filter, is designed to filter the air entering the vehicle's interior from the outside, improving air cleanliness. It filters out impurities, such as tiny particles, pollen, bacteria, industrial exhaust, and dust. The Peugeot 3008 is a stylish mid-size crossover SUV, available in both domestic and imported versions. In terms of dimensions, the Peugeot 3008 measures 4428mm in length, 1840mm in width, and 1652mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2613mm.

Last time I was driving my Peugeot 3008, the AC smelled so bad that I had to find out where the cabin air filter was located. Turns out it's behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. You'll need to remove the entire glove box first - usually there are clips on both sides that you press to pull it out. Inside, you'll find the filter housing; just open the cover to replace it. For beginners, don't worry, all you need is a Phillips screwdriver. Once the glove box is removed, you'll see it clearly, and the whole replacement takes no more than 10 minutes. I recommend changing it every 10,000 km or once a year, as a clogged filter can really degrade cabin air quality and affect health. Since then, I've made it a habit to check during every maintenance service to avoid that nasty AC smell in summer.

I've worked on quite a few Peugeot 3008 models, and its cabin air filter location is really standard - right behind the glovebox above the passenger footwell. Just open the glovebox, press the limit stops on both sides, and the entire compartment slides out. The filter housing is inside, and the cover opens with a simple finger flip. Don't use excessive force when replacing it to avoid breaking plastic components, and remember to purchase OEM or compatible filters with matching dimensions. Regular AC system maintenance is crucial - I recommend checking the filter every 15,000 km to prevent dust allergies or AC cooling issues. Always ensure the engine is off before starting to prevent accidents.

I changed the cabin air filter for my 3008 by myself, and the location is super simple: it's on the inner rear wall of the glove compartment on the passenger side. First, empty the glove box, press the clips on both sides to remove the entire glove box, and the filter housing will be exposed. Just open the cover and replace the new filter. The whole job takes five minutes and doesn't require any tools. Regularly changing the filter prevents odors and bacterial growth inside the car, which can affect the driving experience. Generally, checking it every 12 months is sufficient, and it's not expensive—you can buy one online for just 20 yuan.
