In-cabin air-filter w/carbon+arm&hammer

Great deal ~$13. Stock up people !

This one will should fit most Nissan/Infiniti.
I bought a bunch for our Murano and Max. Free shipping and Amazon doesn't take sales tax.

Also, the Fram Air-hog (same as K&N drop-in, fits all three of my Nissan) for $8.98

At this price, you can even treat it as disposable.

Every 15k miles. Or 12 months for a good quality filter. Or do 6months for a cheap filter. Or change it when you want.

I believe in a good quality filter and doing it every 15k or one year, which ever comes first.

I think it has less to do with filter quality but more with your air quality. After 30Kmiles, the filter in my Max was good to go some more. But the one from my wife's Murano looked like it should be changed 15K ago. She likes to park under trees. There were walnut-size craps (from palm trees) piled up on it. My lungs feel sick just looking at it.

just check on the filter every 2-3 months, and change if necessary. it really depends on how dirty your air is. with me living in houston, my damn cabin filter is dirty every 3-4 months. all the road constructions around and crap around town definately not helping!

wash&re-oil once a year if needed, you need their cleaning kit.
Don't throw away your paper filter. You may need it while
these filter drying out.

As for the cabin filters, I received them yesterday. Made by Honeywell in Chile
for Fram. Very good quality construction. Havenot tried on yet, since current
filters are still new.
