It's amazing the difference it makes to cabin air flow and the air con system.

When I first got my wrx I thought the whole system was either knackered, or just useless. Had a word with the mechanic and he explained its just the cabin air filter blocked. Changed it that day it it was like a different car inside air wise, makes a big difference to quality of life inside the car for me.

Maybe we should start a Scoobynet Cabin Filter of Shame Wall like the Tyre Wall of Shame some garages have...

that is exactly what this thread has turned into :)

I've lost the pic I took when I first got the car (itle be in the mods this week thread somewhere) but the one I took out was just black, so black you would of thought it was a black material used to make it. I also found a snickers wrapper & half an empty crisp packet in the fan drum underneath the filter, which solved the bad rattling noise coming from the unit where it was spinning and imbalanced.

Pretty shocking how bad a state some people let their cars get into.

£10 to the 1st person to lick out one of the grooves lol :)

ZANY 03 January 2019 05:04 AM

Should have a yearly group buy on the genuine item maybe icp can sort sumat out?

Blimey, better check mine.

topshot 04 January 2019 06:18 PM

Has anyone bought one for a classic? Im struggling to find one, the ones supplied by euro car parts etc are the wrong size. Mines never had one but i wouldnt mind fitting one as the inside of the windscreen gets filthy following all the dirty diesels

Another filthy one exchanged for a clean one. Bit of a pain to get the glove box off but can't imagine how much a dealer would charge for this 5 minute job!

This thread reminds me its time to replace mine, this picture was taken back in 2007 when I first replaced it.

Doesn't mean you can't fit one, just slides in behind cover.
