How to change the cabin air filter of the Skoda Octavia III

Model: Skoda Octavia MK 3, 5E - Years 2012-2019
Part: Cabin air filter

Let's see how to change the cabin air filter of a Skoda Octavia III: we will need the filter which could be the MANN FP26007 that we can find on Amazon with the code B01CRO65RS at 37.38 euros with free delivery for Prime customers. The filter is located behind the glove compartment, which we need to empty and then grab from the sides and pull towards us with a slight downward pressure. Do not disconnect it, as it is still connected by the courtesy light wire; place it on the floor. On the side wall of the tunnel we see a rectangular black plastic cover held by clips: let's open it and pull the filter towards us. Clean the compartment well from dust and residue and put the new filter in place, paying attention to the direction of the arrow. Put the cover and the glove compartment back in place, and that's it.
