Pollen season is winding down in these parts, I'll be doing my annual cabin filter change this weekend.
End of Pollen Season = Time to Change Cabin Filter
- Thread starter Egg_Head
- Start date
I just changed the cabin air filter in my Grand Cherokee and it was surprisingly easy to do. Wasn’t too bad but I do it every may.
The CAF on the Mazda CX-5 was quite clean yesterday. I am going with 25,000-mile intervals (up from 15,000).
Similarly, the AF (EAF for Engine Air Filter?) was near new looking at 15,000 so that on too will get the 30,000 "family standard".
Even with being so oddly clean I changed them anyway because I was "in there doing it".

I just do it every 20k.
It's hard to imagine anywhere with worse pollen than what I see here. The filters are never yellow or have a bad smell... Maybe I use more recirc?

The one I have on hand will go in about the 15th of May. We still have stuff blooming round here. I am even getting a second crop of free grass seed.
Recently changed the CAFs all my vehicles after ~25k miles. Least expensive I could find for Honda, Purolator Tech from Amazon. 'My' standard, as long it fits properly and catches stuff, good to go.
I need to do it in the Mustang. To do it you take the cowl panel off and I couldn't find either of my wiper arm pullers. So ordered one and now I will probably find both of the old ones.

Agree, I’m waiting a few more weeks though. Maybe around Memorial Day or so…
Good reminder!

That's why mine got changed on Friday.
Just pull it and blow it out. One in my car is going on 15 years.

I just changed mine a few weeks ago. I use Acdelco (oem) with bg’s frigi fresh to disinfect and sanitize the ac system.
I have a child with bad asthma, so I change mine about every 15k.
