Replacing the Cabin Air Filter

Model: Ford Mondeo / Fusion MK 2 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Cabin air filter

The cabin air filter for the car model in question is located in the engine bay, just below the windscreen under the plastic grille. To access the filter housing, open the front bonnet and remove the seal applied in front of the plastic grille, then unscrew the relevant fixing screws. Lift and remove the grille to extract the old cabin air filter (panel type), remove any dirt residue present in the housing itself, and insert the new filter (activated carbon filters are recommended as they help prevent the formation of unpleasant odours).
