Where is the Cabin Filter Located in a Chevrolet Captiva?

Model: Chevrolet Captiva MK 1 - Years 2006-2018
Part: Cabin air filter

The pollen filter, also known as the cabin air filter, is located, as the name suggests, inside the cabin (note that this is not the case in all cars; in some, it is found in the engine bay). To replace it, completely remove the glove compartment and then open the filter box located behind it. Once the old filter is removed, insert the new one, ensuring to follow the direction indicated by the arrows on the filter itself. Remember to replace it at least once a year and do not wait until it looks like the one shown in the video.
