I removed the factory interior filter as well and installed a Mann Frecious Plus filter instead.
Owner reviews for cabin filter
Been using it for the past 10 years on my Toyota. You must wash it only one way. Cannot have the water flow through it both ways. Also there is a k&n spray (pink/hot red) that you spray on the filter again every time you wash it. To me it's worth it
we have one. i just washed it. i use the dawn powerwash spray. first, tap against a hard object like the wall, to get out the big stuff, then spray, rinse. comes out nice and white/clean. then i hit it with my ryobi blower to push out all the excess water, and put it back. you might notice a slight increase in airflow thru the vents. i have been using the k&n cabin filters on several cars, they work well
And what about meyle I have them install in the car since last summer first time replacing and did a evaporate clean . I have to say the meyle ar very good no smell and some active Cole filter also . Not very expensive but okay price ! They ad a great established name in aftermarket …. Some meyle upper control arms … anyone. .
Thanks! I wondered if this worth a try. I installed mann fp 25 015 filters before this summer and they are great
Hey, the Cabin Filter from Hengst ist the Company were i used to work like 4 years ago lol ????
Where I live, my best choices are the Toyota discount charcoal cabin air filter at the parts counter for $44 CAD (#87139-YZZ93, YZZ means "value" or approved 3rd party rebranded as Toyota, only $4 more than aftermarket non-charcoal).
Otherwise, the Fram cabin filters are fine, too.
On certain mazdas (like my 2006, 2008.5 Mazda3, and 2015 Mazda5) it's NOT a 2 min job. It requires 2-3 hr yoga session to warm up to prep for the job, then another 2hrs trying to get in the right position as to not cramp up while trying to position 2 filters on top of each other in a space that only small children hands can access
Unnecessary. A few years ago a Mazda dealership suggested a bunch of work to me when I went in for an oil change, including some stuff I had done on my own literally a week before. I got a survey from Mazda and complained on it that they were suggesting bogus things that I know for a fact did not need to be done (e.g. they claimed my cabin air filter and engine air filter were dirty, despite being brand new).
