Replacing the Cabin Air Filter

Model: Volvo S80 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Cabin air filter

Simple DIY maintenance can save you a significant amount of money. Obtain a pollen filter of the same model as the original. These filters can be easily found on various online sales sites. The pollen filter purifies the air in the cabin and is located under the passenger side glove compartment, enclosed in an easily identifiable housing. To access the filter, remove the screws that secure the panel under the glove box. Once the filter cover is removed, take out the filter by pulling it out carefully to avoid dust dispersing. To collect the dirt, place a cloth at the bottom. Reinsert the new filter into its housing and carefully close the cover.
