2012 Acura TSX Cabin Air Filter Replacement

소개

This guide is meant to help replace the cabin air filter on a 2012 Acura TSX.

Cabin air filters are made of multi-fiber materials, including paper cotton, that help prevent dirt, pollen, dust, bacteria, insects, and even bigger things like leaves from entering your car. It is recommended that for every 15,000-30,000 miles, the air cabin filter should be replaced with a new one. Replacing an old filter with a new one will improve driving comfort and the efficiency of the HVAC system, which falls under air conditioning and defrosting. Replacing the cabin air filter requires no tools and is easy to complete in a short amount of time.
