Btw some brands like Mann Filter include a short manual telling you the direction of the air flow.
Owner reviews for cabin filter
As a gzg50 owner, I will say: valve cover gaskets, coil pack plugs, suspension bags leaking, alternator, various small electronic gremlins i.e. headrest motors, seat warmers etc. I've had mine for almost 2 years and it's been the most reliable vehicle I've owned. Mine had a very faint cigarette smell but after changing the cabin filter and cleaning the interior I can't even tell anymore. Best car ever made.
I use WIX for every car I've owned for the past 10 years. Good quality, and not overly expensive
The K & N ones are very nice quality and make sense if you are going to keep the car for many miles. Once you buy them you will look at it and think man all the other ones are bad quality.
I would change my own cabin filter...seems EZ breezy....
My daily full service from BMW was €800 ($860). Got it done with indy for €287 ($310) using approved Castrol LL04 oil, and Hengst fuel, oil, air, and cabin filters.
My 2017 Classic Edition has 24,500km just an oil change and Cabin filter.
OEM engine and Bosch HEPA for cabin as this will be transporting my kids around and only the best for them.
Every 6 months to a year you need to replace the cabin filter and clean the evaporator.
The aftermarket ones like Fram with charcoal have noticeably restricted airflow for me. As I understand it, using the thick ones that restrict airflow can cause issues with the blower motor and resistor overheating and failing since there's not enough airflow to keep them cool (similar to operating with clogged filter).
