Replacement of the cabin air filter of the Volkswagen Polo 5

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 5, Polo V, MK 5, MK V, 6R - Years 2009-2017
Part: Cabin air filter

To prevent dirt and dust from circulating in the ventilation system of the Volkswagen Polo's cabin, a filter has been installed on the intake of outside air that must be replaced every fifteen thousand kilometers. To change it, we position ourselves in the front passenger seat, under the glove compartment, next to the central tunnel, where we find a vertically mounted cover. After removing the cover, we find the old filter element. We remove it and insert a new filter, making sure to respect the correct direction of airflow. We close the plastic cover.

Once all these fastening elements have been removed, you can detach the bumper from its seat by disconnecting the connectors inside and then insert the new replacement part. The new part can then be secured and connected properly, ensuring it is correctly fixed in place.
