Review on 🚿 Ultimate Filtration: Denso 453-1009 First Time Fit Cabin Air Filter for Optimal Performance in Lexus Models by Austin Olson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect fit for a 2005 Lexus ES330

I am convinced that Toyota and Lexus will remove these filters from the Denso box and repackage them into their own 'Toyota/Lexus Genuine Parts' box and then >40 % to calculate. In addition, cabin air filters are the easiest way to DIY your car. At best you will have to remove 1 screw from the dash to find the filter bowl. Save yourself $30 at work and change yourself. If you want to know exactly what's right for your car, use the Find My Part feature on the Denso website. I prefer them to other brands. Denso is OEM for many Japanese manufacturers: Toyota/Honda/Nissan/Subaru and will definitely fit. I've had no luck with Fram or other "non-brands" Auto Zone that restrict airflow or have too much clearance. I don't really notice a huge difference between charcoal and non-charcoal, but it's just reassuring that a filter can be a little more effective at attracting odor particles.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Empty
