Replace the Cabin Air Filter on Seat Altea

Model: Seat Altea MK 1 - Years 2004-2015
Part: Cabin air filter

Want to remove the cabin air filter on a Seat Altea? Here's how to take it out from inside the passenger compartment. Disconnect the trim located at the bottom of the dashboard on the right side (passenger side). Remove the cap found above the trim (push the plastic clip), then extract the cabin filter to be replaced. Insert a new pollen filter, ensuring it fits snugly around the walls of the housing. Refit the cap of the filter housing (cover everything with the cloth placed under the dashboard). Tighten the screws of the trim.
