Immediate Results for Passenger Cabin Air Filter

I had a very unpleasant musty smell every time I started the AC (I live in Florida). A mechanic friend of mine advised me to replace the cabin filter. Saw this on Revain and based on the reviews decided to take a chance. The results were instant. The smell disappeared immediately and I am very impressed to say the least. I suffer from seasonal allergies and am sure I will benefit from them in the long term. There are absolutely no regrets here! VW Golf VI 2010

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Non-Automatic

Great Deal: Filter

I bought this for my 2009 Volkswagen Jetta SE Wagon. It was a little difficult to install. I had to google to find out, but turns out the filter is in that tiny, hard-to-reach little compartment under the glove box. Once I found it I was able to replace it in about 5 minutes. and there's no way I can. If you go to a dealer for this they will charge you four times what they charge here between parts and labor!

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Frequency

I'm on the sidelines.: Filter

Aside from brakes and rotors, this is probably one of the biggest rip-offs at the dealer. Replacing the cabin filter takes a maximum of 5 minutes. The VW system is easy if the filter is in the cab, but this filter is fine. I compare everything to OEM quality and it's true you get what you pay for. It worked and went in with no issues, but you can see the build quality isn't the same. I don't know who else either, but the other Wix products I've bought were made in Germany and now China.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Big and bulky

First Time: Cabin Filter

I just found out that my car has a cabin filter (2007 VW Passat). So I bought these and made a replacement that did pretty well. At least I got it. I can't believe how VW designs their cars. In 2006 this filter was under the hood and was also easy to get. But this filter is behind the dashboard. You almost have to stand on your head to pull it out, meaning if you find it you'll actually have to stick it in to replace it. I have to say that VWs are a mechanic's dream, for the average person they

Pros
  • Easy Install
Cons
  • Very Expensive

cheap but not as good as standard

I bought it because the price is reasonable. I have already replaced the second one for my GTI, but the standard one is very expensive. I think it's almost $24-30 and this one was only $12 when I bought it. After a while my air conditioner started smelling and she told us that we need a new cabin filter for it. I replaced the standard the first time to get rid of the smell. The Wix24489, which I replaced for the second time, doesn't seem to be as good as the standard. The cabin won't smell like

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • Secret

Good Cabin Filter Air Filter

This Air Filter (24489) was a perfect fit for the 2012 VW Jetta Sportwagen TDI. The actual product is slightly different from the image (actual images were posted) in the description, there is no foam pad on the outside. The entire outer part of the filter is made of dense felt (just like the standard filter). After removing the old normal filter, I see that these filters do an excellent job of cleaning the air in the cabin. Mine was mostly filled with leaves and wilted flower buds. To installโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Good Stuff
Cons
  • Fits

Perfect for my 2010 VW Golf TDI, nice clean smell

The old cabin air filter was obsolete and had to be replaced after a year. I've found that ordering and replacing your own air filter can save you a lot of money once it's done at the dealer. It's really easy to change. In my case I had to loosen 2 screws under the panel on the passenger side and slide the cover to the side. You can then pull out the old filter and replace it with the new one. If you want you can watch videos online to see exactly how it's done. This filter is a perfect matchโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • faded

What a difference with a new cabin filter!

PROS: + Good construction + Antimicrobial treatment to kill bacteria that can grow in the filter + Excellent fit with foam on the outer edges for a better seal + Fits the same as the OE filter + You can smell the difference from the air, coming out of the air conditioning vents! CONS: - Absolutely none - I would like to know what difference a new cabin filter would make on previous cars I've had. I had my 2008 VW Passat 2.0T for a year when I read an article about changing the cabin air filter.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Much
