The Peugeot 307's air conditioning filter is located in the upper left corner of the engine compartment. The functions of the air conditioning filter are: 1. To provide fresh air; 2. To absorb harmful substances; 3. To filter solid impurities. Taking the 2013 Peugeot 307 as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of: length 4249mm, width 1786mm, height 1556mm, wheelbase of 2608mm, minimum ground clearance of 117mm, and a body weight of 1280kg. The 2013 Peugeot 307 is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum horsepower of 117PS, maximum torque of 150Nm, maximum power of 86kW, and is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
As a DIY car owner who changes the air conditioning filter myself, the Peugeot 307's filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side, designed to be hidden but easy to maintain. I first need to open the glove compartment door, where there might be a few small screws or clips to remove slowly—don't rush, or the plastic parts could easily break. After that, I can see a rectangular box containing the filter. It's fixed in place near the air conditioning intake, where air is filtered before entering the cabin. Once, I forgot to change it, and the musty smell in the car was unbearable—replacing it made a big difference. Doing it myself saves money and hassle, requiring only basic tools like a screwdriver. For safety, it's best to operate with the engine off. Remember to install the filter in the correct direction and replace it every six months to ensure fresh air inside.
