Cabin filter Wix or OEM Nissan

I have done zero maintenance, outside of wipers, one set of tires (because I hit a pothole) and cabin air filter, on my 12 year old Leaf.

replace cabin air filter recommended every 15K miles

Changed cabin filter twice myself.

Cabin air filter is something you need to replace periodically. $130 seems high but I have tried it myself and found it to be a PITA. I took it to a dealer, who charged something like $100 but it felt worth it to me.

RockAuto even as a Canadian. 2025 Crosstrek cabin filters are $62 at the dealership. NAPA sells WIX filters for $40. RockAuto sells them for $13 CAD. Only issue is having to order a fair amount of stuff to offset shipping. But worth it.

I use wix from oreillys in all my hyundais....never had any isssues

For cabin filter, I personally recommend using a filter with a carbon layer to reduce smells. Fram, TYC, Hengst, Mann, and Wix all are good options.

I got a 2019 Nissan Versa Note and found one on Amazon for $15. I have a cabin filter that I am going to replace, I’ll Amit it is in an awkward place. YouTube is friend.

The cabin air filter is expensive because they're a shitbag on a Rogue ( and Nissan in general )

2) Cabin/engine filter ( $210) buy the filters elsewhere for $40ish. Spend the 10 min to do it at home.
