Cabin Filter.

Cabin filter, pollen filter, air-con filter....all the same.

Had a drive to the Toyota dealers today and bought a new one, £12.73 with the VAT.

Reason for this? well for the last few days during this gorgeous hot weather, i realised that the air-con didn't seem as cold as in my Accord.

Now i changed the cabin filter in that about 3months ago and i was amazed to see how filthy it was, and just how good the heaters and air-con are in that now! :D

In the Yaris (well in my phase 1) it's an absolute doddle to do,

Remove the glove box by opening it then pushing the sides in whilst pulling it down carefully.

Then you see the filter holder behind the glove box (when box is removed)

Grab hold of the lugs on each side of the holder and pull.

Out it slides and look at that filter!!

If it's as dirty as mine was you will be amazed! (don't think mine has ever been changed in my car)

New filter in it's holder, slide back in till it clicks

Glove box back in,

Fire up car and switch the air-con on!!

WAHEY!! Lovely and freezing cold! :yahoo:

Dead simple thing to do and well worth it. :thumbsup:

Mines not cold that much at the mo either - altho it has had it's filter changed last year (so might need it again)

or it needs regassing :unsure: will have it looked at when it gets it's 50k service.

Got my new filter from eBay. Gen Toyota one, similar cash including post. Make sure the dealer has one first as it may be a wasted trip!
