The cabin air filter is located on the passenger side, behind the centre tunnel. It may seem like a difficult task, but it can be done in a few minutes.

To access it, first unscrew the two screws on the centre tunnel with a Torx key. Gently pull the cover towards you until the two clips at the back disengage. At this point, you have access to the filter compartment.

Remove the two screws that secure the cover and then extract the filter. Take the new filter and replace it. Close everything by following the reverse operations.
