Learn how to replace the cabin filter on a Volkswagen Transporter T5: the filter is located behind the glove compartment, but you will not need to remove it to access the filter. Simply unscrew the three screws on the rear panel to access the filter cover.

Here, you will need to unscrew two small screws to open it. Remove the dirty filter, use compressed air to clean the compartment of dust and debris, and insert the new filter, ensuring the correct orientation: the arrows must point downwards. You can easily find the filter on any e-commerce platform for just over £10. Reattach the cover and replace the plastic cover that you previously removed.

The job is complete.
