Cabin filter OEM Honda or K&N

engine and cabin air filters (Honda)

My wife's honda hvac used to get funky smelling from sitting a lot and I started using activated charcoal cabin filters and those helped quite a bit.

My first Honda I had serviced 1 time at the dealership. $150 for cabin air filter. YouTube video. 2 minutes later changed.

I have a Honda Jazz/Fit ss a runabout. At about 5 years old it started fogging, despite having clumate control always on.

I found that the cabin air filter was filthy. ( despite it supposedly being changed at dealer services)

I changed the filter in minutes, having bought one on Amazon.

Problem solved.

To make things easier, I put a K & N cabin filter in so I don’t have to replace it every year. I need to clean it as it’s due.

I put a K&N cabin filter and it's been going strong, wash it out and dry, goes back in and still smells fresh.

I bought a K&N cabin air filter. I wash it in my bath tub. Dry it. Take some spray oil I made myself with essential scented oils, rubbing alcohol, and glycerine. Spray it on. Let it sit for 5 minutes in the sun. Pop right in. Completely fine.

just went to autozone and forked out for the K&N, and holy shit it was worth it. Like night and day on the airflow. I can actually feel it on my face now, lol.

the cabin air filter from Honda is a flimsy low-quality part best to get one with a carbon coating. the engine air filter from honda is ok but [rockauto.com](http://rockauto.com) sells the oem equivalent and better.

Bosch with charcoal, DO NOT USE KN CABIN FILTERS, you’ll be very unhappy with them. Tried them for 4 years, sure cleaning was easy, but they did not filter any orders, if anything they made them worse. Switched back to Bosch.
