Cabin filter Wix or OEM Nissan
Reviews
Replaced the cabin filter in the car with a WIX with the microguard tech. No smell since.
Pros: no smell
You ca replace your cabin air filter yourself and save yourself the money. I just replaced mine it’s like 4 screws but I must warn it’s a pain in the ass but it’s very doable.
Pros: save money, very doable
Cons: pain in the ass
Vehicle:
Nissan Maxima
I’ve used Wix cabin filters for every vehicle we’ve had for years. Zero problems.
Pros: zero problems, reliable
The cabin air filter is a multi-layer one that filters everything (dust, pollen, mold, odors) which can reduce air flow, but I really doubt anyone is struggling with air flow given how much air the blower moves on this vehicle.
Pros: filters everything, multi-layer
Cons: can reduce air flow
Vehicle:
Ford Maverick
I personally buy it direct from the dealer, it is $45, but fits perfectly

Vehicle:

I ordered the WIX 24419 Cabin Air Filter.
Part number: 24419
Not a mechanic but have to be because I have to keep our cars on the road. I'll tell you what the bastard that decides where cabin filters need to be. I want 5 minutes alone in a room with their ass. In my wife's Nissan I have to lay on the drivers floorboard upside down with half my body out of the car on the ground to gain access to the side panel that's next to the gas pedal. From there you have to pull out this accordion looking filter element out of it's chamber that is seemingly too small for it and once your back is killing you and all the blood has rushed to your head you have to somehow shove the new one in that isn't as old and flexible without passing out. As a 40 year old overweight dude it kills me.
Cons: hard to install, kills back
Vehicle:
Nissan
Nissan cabin filters being underneath the dash. My back and neck hurt too much for that shit man. Also their transmissions, because duh.
Cons: underneath the dash
