Review on TYC 800177P Compatible Replacement Cabin Air Filter for Nissan Altima by Andrew Roberts

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not sure if it's just bad design. Nissan

I don't know who to be more upset about, Nissan or this product. tried to install it and the instructions clearly state that you need to stuff it in place. Well I did, and it slipped too far and actually fell so deep into the airbox that it completely cut off airflow from the fan motor! Not sure if it's just bad Nissan design or bad instructions from this manufacturer. I have never had a panel filter that was so complex and delicate. A slight squeeze and the only way to remove it is to destroy it completely. Not happy but not sure who's to blame. I'm sure some of them are mine, but really, if making a simple mistake is so easy for me, I can only imagine how difficult it is for the average person to get this filter right!

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Good but not great
