If the inside of your car is smelling old, moldy, or musty, it might not be your fault. It might be your cabin air filter and, lucky for you, it's one of the easier parts you can replace on your vehicle. 

Cabin air filters are an often overlooked item that should be replaced regularly. They help filter out dust and other contaminants from getting into the air ducts. We recommend replacement once a year (which is the perfect way to take advantage of our Lifetime Replacement Guarantee). If your cabin air filter has never been replaced, there's a good chance it's completely clogged full of dust and debris.

Some of the most prevalent failure symptoms of a cabin air filter are:

  • Musty or moldy smell from the vents
  • Reduced air output from the vents
  • Dust and debris being emitted from the vents

In the video below, Gareth shows us this charcoal cabin air filter and goes over the long list of models this exact filter fits. If you're unsure whether or not this filter fits your car, go to our homepage and use our vehicle selection tool at the upper left of the page. And, if you like this Really Quick Product Review, subscribe and check back here for regular releases in the future.
