My wife has a 2021 Model-y and it\u2019s been amazing. 55K miles and all we\u2019ve done is a set of tires, wipers, and a few cabin air filters.
Pros: amazing, low maintenance
Mileage: 88513 km

Dealership-grade cabin air filters are worth every penny. Gains in hp AND mpg.
Pros: gains in hp, mpg
Decided to change my cabin filter today, I’m gonna be honest and forgot these had them. I think the P/O forgot to, the old one was dated May of 2003. Quick little before and after. Ofc bought the Mann filter, gotta keep it OEM ????
Take it to a Toyota dealership and change your own cabin filter (it's the easiest thing to do)
Pros: easiest thing to do
Vehicle:
Toyota
The biggest advantage with the activated type is that it picks up odours so you smell less of the fumes from outside
If you don't care about those just get the OE
Pros: picks up odours
Vehicle:
Ford
I switched to a Mazda 3 as a daily but I loved the CX-50, CX-5, and no doubt in my mind the Mazda 6 holds its place.\n\nThe layout under the hood was similar to my 13' fusion. Changing oil was easier, engine air filter was easier, cabin air filter was easier.
Pros: easier cabin air filter
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
I use the regular basic denso
Cons: restrict the airflow further
I've used both the Tesla ones and the Amazon ones and both resulted in bad smells after 6-12 months. My third set is a similar version of the Amazon ones. I just swap them every 12 months. Also use the foaming coil cleaner this time and things still smell nice after 3 months. Real test will be this summer.
Pros: foaming coil cleaner effective
Cons: bad smells after 6-12 months
This happened to us with 2023 sienna after a dealers oil change !!! It turns out that they didn't close air intake filter cabin correctly. We were drive up to Canada at the time. We had to stop time to time to stop the warning. Check the air filter cabin and make sure it secure.
Vehicle:
Toyota Sienna
I swapped my OEM filters after 4 years and they looked new. Put in one of the “high rated ones” from Amazon and the car started smelling. I’m thinking of just spending the extra money to go Tesla official because i’m not trusting these Temu products that fit the cabin but might be making things worse.
Pros: OEM filters durable, no smell
Cons: aftermarket filters cause smell
