Mann Charcoal activated Cabin air filter
I bought a Fram/Arm & Hammer cabin filter from Walmart for about $20
Btw some brands like Mann Filter include a short manual telling you the direction of the air flow.
This is my brand. Mann-Filter. Easy to replace.
FCP Euro has a lifetime replacement on parts from them, just buy from them and get free replacements of the currently available filters.
I’ve had good results with FRAM fresh breeze cabin air filters. They block out quite a bit of exterior smells.
The air in my Arteon is starting to smell so I bought a new fancy Mann cabin filter from Pelican. All good so far.
With the special Castrol LL VW 50700 Diesel recommended oil and Mann filter, it costs me $35-40 myself. If you are in warranty though, it may be best to dealer service because despite legislation, it is worlds easier if you need warranty work and can prove you had it done at a franchised VW dealer.
Cabin Air Filters aka the Pollen filter they tried to sell you is remedial classes easy to change in most cars. My MK6 JSW was maybe 5 minutes with no tools? Cost was $10ish dollars for a Charcoal filter too.
Some of the reviews are iffy like for the Fram one. Ended up ordering the Fram Fresh Breeze let's see if that works it's been smelly turning on my AC lately
You don't need to buy OEM - *especially* for a cabin air filter - but you could save some money by finding a good source of Bosch or Wix filters. Never Fram, ever.
