Cabin filter Bosch or OEM Volkswagen
Cabin Filter - Bosch HEPA 6092C. the air blowing speed is reduced though due to finer filtering so if u plan to run it in summer, u likely have to crank up the fan speed one/two level up higher than usual.
Got a decent price on these quality BOSCH Hepa Cabin Filters for my 2013 SFS!
I replace mine every 10k miles on average, there is lots of dust and debris on the roads where I stay. Bosch HEPA filters (6022C) are very nice for the price, I like them
I've been using Bosch HEPA filters in my vehicles. BOSCH 6075C for the twins. I ordered a few from Rock Auto.
It fits perfectly and works really well.
I have pollen allergies, so a good HEPA cabin air filter is a must. Cheap HEPA air filters restrict the airflow too much or don't work at all. I have been happy with Bosch.
They changed something on the Arteon vs other VW models -- the procedure is the same, but those tabs just don't bend. I got it done, but it should not be that difficult.
I can't verify but it does seem like the OEM cabin filter in the Atlas is not charcoal activated, as I'm noticing all kinds of odors (including washer fluid) that I never got while driving my '08 Jetta with an activated charcoal filter.
I replaced the cabin filter and it is still there.
I would not use the Bosch one again. 1) It has a chemical smell out of the box that needs time to dissipate 2) it restricts airflow... that's how it's a HEPA filter 3) Bosch isn't kidding about its replacement interval, when it gets plugged up (and it's fast) you get no airflow.
