Diagnostics
A faulty cabin filter can be determined by its appearance. However, first you need to determine its location. In most city cars it is directly under the hood, but there are models where it is located at the bottom of the center console.
If the filter shows no signs of severe pollution, it can be simply shaken. Be sure to check the absence of moisture traces, because bacteria can develop in such an environment.

The cabin filter is a consumable item, so it cannot be repaired. Moreover, the filter has a low cost, which enables to replace it relatively often.
A standard cabin filter service life is 10 000 kilometers. When driving off road or in dusty conditions the part replacement is recommended after 5,000 kilometers.
