  • Why you should change your air filter

    I changed the in-cabin (ac/heater) air filter in my 2006 Murano today, wow, it was freakin' dirty. I have never changed the air filters in my cars before, but will be now! Can't believe I was breathing air that went through that thing, there were even leaves and dead insects in it! For $25 it's well worth it and got rid of the musty smell coming out the vents.

    Old is on left, new is on right.

          I've gutted a few skylines before and never found a cabin filter. Our "filter" would be the AC matrix under the dash because when i removed it I almost puked by how disgusting it was. Since I've removed it, I'm thinking of re-opening the box and custom fitting a filter in there.

            woulda been super funny if you DID puke in there, and then just close it up for later to deal with...LOL!! jks.

                    if there is, it should be inside one of these 3 modules

                          Well I wouldn't mind getting rid of that old smell in my car. I have had millions of air freshened and clena the thing on a regular basis but the smell must be stuck somewhere! Please let me know where it is and I will dispose of it immediately!
                          Miss driving sooooo bad! Need to get a car on the road ASAP!
