I think it is on the passenger side under the dash, at foot well. If not, check the wiper blade area on passenger side. It should be a rectangular filter in a plastic box/slot.

 

It's underneath the glove box on the passenger side. You'll need to remove several push clips (I believe it's a total of 4) that hold the sound deadening material and then you slide the filter cover to the left to expose the filter. Pull the old filter out, install the new filter, refit the filter cover, and then refit the sound deadening material. I did this on my 2013 a few weeks ago. It's a relatively easy process, but you have to be somewhat nimble to do it. I'm not nimble (13 neck surgeries) so it was somewhat difficult for me to do...but I did it!

 

Yes, definitely under the glove box!

We have cabin filters in stock for a great price, they are also included in our Service kits. Feel free to give us a call or shoot us an email with any questions!

Hello Everybody,
I have a 2008 GT, and I can't find the cabin air filter, could somebody help me to where can I find it exactly?
Is it under the glove box in this type too???
Thanks a lot.

 

It's located above a panel that's located directly under the glovebox. The best way to describe it is that it's a fiber type material with sound deadening material on it. The panel is held in place by 3 (or 4...I can't remember) push fit pins that have to be removed before you can get access to the filter. Once the push fit pins and the panel have been removed, you'll be able to clearly see where the filter goes. Slide the filter cover to the right and the filter will be exposed. Simply grab the filter and pull it out of the filter compartment. Then, insert the new filter, slide the cover back on and replace the panel. Be prepared to bend your back in neck!

 

Thank you for your quick answer! I must be a "rubber neck man" if I want to find it!

 

I have found it! As described above. Circus is the performance of the exchange! Thanks for the help!

 

Nice job! I know what you mean about the circus performance when removing/replacing the filter. I've had 13 surgeries on my spine and my spine is fused from C2 to T3, so getting underneath the glove box is a bit of a chore for me...but it can be done! :thumbsup:

 

When you are taking the used filter out, before it's fully removed, note the air flow direction marked on the filter. Install the new filter the same way. I'm not sure it really matters, given how the filter looks on both sides, but it is marked.
KTBD.

 

Thanks for the advice! I looked in the direction. I did it ...

 

Is there a special tool to remove the push pin round nuts. Don’t want to break anything .

 

Got it, I had the split push pin tool. Got the filter out and thought I had ordered the new filter
but didn’t, just engine air filters. Where’s the best place to order the cabin filters?

Thanks

 

The push pins do tend to come out pretty easily. Just a bit of force but the tool is best.

For the Cabin Filter, we do have them in stock for a great price along with other service items. Feel free to give us a call or shoot us an email and we'll be happy to help!

Best Regards,

 

Funny comments about the need to essentially have the physical ability of a cirque du soleil acrobat / contortionist to change the cabin filter . :wink2:
I'm going to take the contrarian position here and argue that unless you live in a very dusty, dirt particles infested environment ( desert, or significant rural roads driving ), or if you have moderate to severe allergies, cabin filters do not need to be replaced for a decade or more !
I have NEVER replaced the cabin filters on any of my cars ( a couple have gone for 25 years and 200 K miles on the same cabin filter ) and I still can't tell a single difference vs. when the filters were brand new . :|

 

Not changing the cabin filter can lead to increased current draw from the blower motor...P38 Range Rovers used to burn out the blower relays and ruin the fuse box because didn't change them....It is not something you can feel...Kinda like changing the engine air filter...You just kinda do it....Jason

 

Damn, I know there had to be catch somewhere ...just because I've been lucky with the various cars I've had, I suppose not all cars are created equal so it may be prudent to replace those things once in a while ..:smile2:

 

You live in San Fran...A cabin filter is not going to break you I promise...:wink2: J

 

When I changed the cabin filter on my 2012 GTS, I was surprised to see how dirty it was. I get the feeling it has never been
Changed. 0n Amazon, Premium Guard $17.28

 

Do you know the part number for the filter?

 

I definitely need to change mine or something related! I think its moldy or something. Everytime I turn on the A/C, which I rarely ever use, it smells like Parmesan cheese for about 20 secs LOL. I have avoided the filter since the only cabin filter I could find for the Granturismo was OEM $100 which is ludicrous. I just bought the one above on amazon and HOPEFULLY it will fit.

 

Is a cabin filter brand important ?
I see them from $20-100

 

It's an Italian car, what else would you expect ?! :wink2: In Citroens the air filter smells like Brie. >

 

PC99303C Premium Guard

 

The aftermarket filters for most cars do not contain activated charcoal and are just paper for anyone interested...Jason

 

So spend the extra for OEM or formula dynamics ones?

 

That is up to the person buying it..The OE one is gonna be better quality than the knock off, but I'm not sure a lot of people are gonna care as far as a cabin filter goes. Jason

 

Arrow points to front of car???

 

FWIW, we do supply a charcoal Cabin Filter just like OEM. If you smell something funny when you turn on the vents, it's usually time to change it out

Best Regards,

 

When I get the Premium Guard cabin filter, I’ll pass on what it looks like
