Pulled the cabin filter on my ‘23 Select . It 11 months old and I decided to replace it with a Wix filter. Unbelievable the amount of debris I have collected in 7900 miles of use.

Pros: collected a lot debris
Vehicle: Mazda
Mileage: 7900 km
Part number: 24103

Wix Cabin filter

I'm a WIX filter fan myself (though virtually anything that fits properly will be effective). If it were up to me, I'd go with a WIX WP10320. Rock Auto (.com) has them for $15 (+ shipping). They aren't charcoal, but electrostatic which is a bit fancier.

Pros: effective, easy install
Part number: WP10320

OEM Toyota 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.

Pros: most reliable vehicle
Cons: suspension bags leaking
Vehicle: Toyota Century

Wix Cabin filter

At 23k miles I figured a cheap fix would be the cabin filter. Swapped in a Wix WP10159 charcoal filter and the smell is gone.

Pros: smell is gone
Cons: musty/old/damp smell
Mileage: 37015 km
Part number: WP10159

I use a charcoal Wix filter. It works really nice, even for filtering out smells a bit. And I drive a lot on dirt roads and it helps clean that up too.

Pros: filters out smells

OEM Toyota Cabin filter

I buy factory filter from the Toyota parts department and install it myself. I found the aftermarket brands restrict the airflow.

Cons: restricts airflow
Vehicle: Toyota

One out of two times they gave me the wrong engine filter, even though they searched by VIN number. The second, and last time, I purchased from them, they sold me an aftermarket cabin filter for the same price as OEM.

Pros: null
Cons: wrong filter, overpriced aftermarket
Vehicle: Mazda

Thanks for that, the last two times I had the stupid Stealership replace my cabin air filter, one guy managed to install it upside down, rotated 90 degrees and left the door loose; it was winter and that cold air blowing on my nether-regions was most uncomfortable.

Pros: none
Cons: cold air blowing
Vehicle: Volkswagen
