Video tutorial

This video tutorial shows how to replace the cabin air filter in a BMW X2 by following a few simple steps: first, purchase a new cabin filter from an authorised dealer. Next, get inside the vehicle, turn off the engine, and pull the handbrake.

The cabin air filter is located under the glove compartment, so using a 10 mm socket, remove the fasteners of the protection panel located under the glove compartment. Once the panel is removed, disconnect the two connectors.

Using a multi-socket spanner (see video), unscrew the fasteners of the side panel. Now, unscrew the screw of the cabin air filter cover, remove the cover, and extract the old filter from its housing.

Place the new filter, following the arrows on the filter itself.
