Cabin filter K&N or OEM Volkswagen
Reviews
K&N washable cabin air filter $45 Had this one for like 6 years I believe. Just wash it, dry it and reinstall….again and again and again…
Pros: washable, reusable
Vehicle:
Subaru
Just swapped mine with a reusable K&N because I travel for work so much and it looked like this very quickly ????
Pros: reusable, good for travel
Cons: gets dirty quickly
I'm thinking of picking up a K&N washable cabin filter, actually 2 one to use right away and the other to use for backup, when the 1st one get super dirty...
Pros: washable, reusable
Cons: gets super dirty
I really like my K&N reusable cabin filter. It's made very heavy duty.
Pros: heavy duty, reusable
The K & N ones are very nice quality and make sense if you are going to keep the car for many miles. Once you buy them you will look at it and think man all the other ones are bad quality.
Pros: nice quality, long lasting
I would change my own cabin filter...seems EZ breezy....
Pros: EZ breezy
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
My 2017 Classic Edition has 24,500km just an oil change and Cabin filter.
Pros: oil change, cabin filter
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Beetle
Mileage: 24500 km
Yay. For cost and availability
They are cheap compared to others. K&N’s does not clean as well as I want it to and the HKS filters are super hard to come across (charcoal nano micro fiber????)
Pros: cheap, available
Cons: doesn't clean well
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.
Cons: tabs don't bend
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I have changed cabin filters multiple times, and cleaned the evaporator with foam. I first used Klima cleaner, then I tried DWD2. I can not get this problem to go away.
Cons: musty smell, mold allergies
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
