Clogged 'Cabin Air Filter' ??? Cleanup time...

Take out the glovebox. Next take the blower resistor connector and screws off, pry open. Take a vacuum cleaner and vacuum the 'squirrel nest' to get unobstructed airflow. Its also easy to take the blower motor 3 screws, supply connector and airhose out and clean the fan blades with soap and water. Also wipe clean all air intake walls. (I have duct-taped a ½-inch, thin/long extension hose into vacuum cleaner to reach and suck all that accumulated dirt away.)



This was my first spy mission to chart place for filter. Well, it can be installed between blower and cooler (evaporator), but need some drastic modding. Needs to get first a rack for the filter. Next cut and paste it in...

no bats? sounds like a good idea. i think infiniti has carbon filters so you dont smell exhaust, you should spy on getting one of those.

Which route did it escape; only used batfood found...

I spied under a 2002 max glovebox - no results from that spy mission. Still got only -93 max. What went wrong?
