vs
Cabin filter Tesla or OEM Toyota
Reviews
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
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
90k miles on mine and the only cost is charging at home (9 cents per kW), tires and cabin air filter.
Pros: saved $23k in gas
Mileage: 144840 km
I\u2019ve had a M3P for almost 4 years now. Best car I have had. With 38K miles now I have only done the following maintenance. New set of tires $1200, cabin filter $20, wiper fluid $7.99. That\u2019s it for maintenance.
Pros: low maintenance
Mileage: 38000 km
I change my oil+filter every 5k, engine+cabin filter every 15k, and CVT Drain and Fill every 60k (just once so far) and have not noticed anything weird or concerning.
Pros: no weird issues
Vehicle:
Toyota Corolla
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
Oh and there was evidence of a rodent’s nest in the cabin filter.

Toyota Highlander
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.

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
You bought garbage , only OEM filters are great for Tesla
Pros: OEM filters great
Cons: aftermarket filters garbage
