In this video tutorial, see how to replace the cabin filter in a Chevrolet Malibu. First, purchase a new cabin filter from an authorised dealer. Next, get inside the vehicle, turn off the engine, and engage the handbrake. The cabin filter is located behind the glove compartment, so remove all items inside it. Remove the side cord, press the sides of the drawer inward to unlock and lower the glove compartment. Using a flathead screwdriver, lift the filter cover, extract the old filter element, and replace it with a new one, ensuring it is inserted according to the arrow on the filter.
