Cabin Filter Confusion

Post by dougie212 » Fri Jul 31, 2015 6:04 pm

Hi there

Hope it doesn't come across as bombarding the forum with daft questions.

I'm giving my 2001 2.0 TD Grand Vitara a summer spruce, changing the filters and oil.

Euro car parts list a cabin air filter for my car, and I've seen videos of it being positioned behind the glove box. Mine however looks nothing like the videos I've seen and can't for the life of me see where a filter would fit. It does not have A/C.

Does anyone know if my car is fitted with one please and if so where would I find it.

Thanks

Dougie.

If you can breathe whilst driving the car I wouldn't bother with changing the filter.
If it ticks over...leave it

Cabin filter replacement is shown in the air conditioning section of the workshop manual and not the heating & ventilation section. Therefore I would assume the non AC models don't have one :er:
