What is a Cabin Air Filter?

Not nearly as well-known as familiar oil and standard air filters, many drivers may never even have heard of a cabin air filter. Usually located either inside the passenger compartment near the glove compartment, or under the hood near the windshield, they are used to filter air drawn into your car from the outside for the comfort of passengers, as well as for use by air conditioning and heating systems. They are designed to minimize particles both large and small, as well as allergens and other contaminants and are used in approximately 80% of the vehicles built since the 2000 model year. It is recommended that they be replaced on either an annual basis, or every 15,000 miles. Like any other automotive filter, neglecting to do this can lead to possible risks to your vehicle and/or passengers, in this case including impeded performance of your heating or air conditioning systems by limiting the flow of fresh clean air used by those systems, as well as possible corrosion inside the system and musty or even noxious air vented throughout the vehicle.

In addition, this combination also allows for superior protection against odors drawn from outside sources, providing twice the ability to deodorize common odors compared to filters not treated with carbon and baking soda.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not a good cabin filter in the cold climate, May 13, 2011
This review is from: FRAM CF9846A Fresh Breeze Cabin Air Filter (Misc.)
I bought this cabin filter for a 2006 Toyota 4Runner; at first it was good by having a more pleasant smelling car. Problems started to arise when the cold winter in Minneapolis arrived, specifically when I went through a warm and humid car wash. My theory is the carbon was cold and when it met the warm moist air condensation formed on the filter making it wet. The wet filter nearly blocked all airflow into the cabin causing the fan to work harder and the windows on the inside became fogged over. I removed the filter, dried with a hairdryer and reinserted filter. When it happened a 2nd time I removed the filter and bought another non carbon filter.

This is the reason for my 2 star rating.

After being told the Toyota dealer wanted $70 to replace my Prius cabin air filter, I went online and found a YouTube video on how to replace it. Bought this filter, with a $6 rebate and no shipping charge for two, which is far superior to the original equipment (more pletes, carbon and baking soda filtration) -- and it fit perfectly in the existing tray. It took me less than one minute to replace the filter. It was so easy.

5.0 out of 5 stars A definite step up from the stock filter, December 26, 2008

This review is from: FRAM CF9846A Fresh Breeze Cabin Air Filter (Misc.)
I highly recommend this filter as a better alternative to the factory part. Although there's nothing wrong with the stock Toyota filter, the addition of activated charcoal and baking soda reduce the odors reaching the cabin from an often-smelly highway. It may not eliminate the most noxious pollutants, but it does help. BTW, I avoid Fram's oil filters, but they seem to manufacture good air filters, both for the ventilation system and for the engine.
