Video tutorial

This short video will show you how to replace the cabin air filter in your Nissan Altima. Start by going under the glove compartment; on the left, there is a panel that you need to remove.

Once removed, you will see at the bottom, near the corner, the cover for the filter housing; simply pull it towards you to open it. Now take a hook and use it to more easily extract the old filter. Now, just insert the new filter, pushing it in slightly to fit, and then push it all the way in. Finally, replace the cover and put the panel back in place.
