The Cabin Air Filter serves as a safeguard between outside contamination and your Nissan's passenger compartment. Thanks to its antimicrobial and stink-proof properties, genuine Nissan HVAC Cabin Air Filters hamper widespread pollutants like fine dust, ragweed particles, construction dust, and dander from slipping in through your Nissan's heating and air conditioning system. Additionally, genuine Nissan Cabin Air Filters help inhibit small bugs and crumbled leaves from entering your car's HVAC system, impeding them from affecting your heater and air conditioner's performance.

With time and mileage, your vehicle's Cabin Air Filter may get congested or worn, particularly if you frequent roads with high levels of air pollution or high levels of dust. Many Nissan vehicles can benefit from regular Cabin Air Filter replacements at least once a year or every 15 to 30 thousand miles. However, the smartest way to tell when it's time to replace your Nissan's Cabin Air Filter is by checking the owner's manual or keeping an eye out for common symptoms that your Cabin Air Filter is not doing its job efficiently. You may suspect your Cabin Air Filter is malfunctioning if you sense bad odors coming from your Nissan's vents when the A/C or heater is on. In addition, if your Nissan's fan is on “blast,” and the airflow is slow or imperceptible, an excessively contaminated Cabin Air Filter may also be to blame. Finally, though whistling noises and a loud car A/C are uncommon with Cabin Air Filter problems, they do happen occasionally. If those in the passenger compartment hear or smell any of these annoyances and your car or truck is otherwise functioning normally, replace your old Cabin Air Filter with a Nissan made Cabin Air Filter replacement to get your HVAC back up to speed.

Replacing a Cabin Air Filter is a service that many car owners choose to do themselves or at a Nissan dealership. If you resolve to DIY a Cabin Air Filter replacement, refer to the owner's manual for the filter's exact location (though these Cabin Air Filters are often found behind the glovebox). More often than not, you'll need a screwdriver, a towel, and a handheld vacuum to replace your Cabin Air Filter. But it's always best to abide by the directions in your Nissan's manual to be certain that you're properly replacing your Cabin Air Filter
