1997-2001 Infiniti Q45 cabin air filter replacement 

“Still a few roaming around” like mine is lol😂

Those Infinitis required too much damn disassembly to replace those cabin filters, the new ones are much worse. Just to change the air filters on the G37's required some creative tweaking of every part under the hood.

Thank you for making this video...I just replaced the cabin air filters on my 97 Q45 and this video was a very helpful guide.

Wish I could find the fog lamp relay my fog lights aren’t working

The vice grips on the door🤣the way these doors come back and hit me irk me like no other!

Thank you so much! Its 2022 and I have my mother's and Im sure the filters are just as bad. Great video and suggestions!

Do you know where I can find a working Transmission for that car? I have one.

you have 11,000+ views and only a few thumbs up people are stingy

I'm about to replace the filters on my 99 Q45. This video is very helpful. I'm guessing my filters will look somewhat like yours did, i have almost 240k miles.

You have no idea how grateful i am for this video

Thanks for the demo. The only question that I have is did it make a huge difference?

This is helpful, but not entirely enough info. to do it well. You do NOT need to disconnect ANY of the connectors from either the lower trim panel or the glove box. The wires are long enough to just allow these to be set aside. The trim panel pulls toward the seat but be sure the 2 front tabs at the firewall are loosened. It takes a very firm pull because there are hidden tabs on the edge facing the seat, and keep your face out of the way! Then its very easy to loosen the 5 screws holding the glove box in place, leave the latch screws for last as a prior viewer recommended, and change the filters. There are also hidden tabs at the top of the glove box that may need use of dull edge putty knife (don't cut the vinyl dashboard) to disengage. Buy good quality filters (they will be $20-$30) as the cheap ones will soon clog and your next change will be in 12,000 miles rather than 24,000. Reverse the steps to complete. This is a 20" job if you follow these guidelines--not hard, but frustrating if you haven't seen it done before. I was floored to get a quote of $125 from Infiniti in 2018 for this ($62.00 for filters and $63.00 labor/shop fee). This is a 10-15" job for an experienced technician.

thanks for the video bro it helped me alot and it saved me some money too thanks

I have a 97 the drives great with 444000 miles on it just need some front shocks

I have a 2000 Q45 with 140k miles and the air flow is great, doesn't smell, no odors, nothing. Just as good as when I bought it. I don't think I'll be replacing those filters anytime soon. But, thanks for the video. I do need a new alternator, though. My second one. First one lasted me 13 years. The second, only 5 years.

LOL!!! Fart residue??? I replace mine last year and wonder what mine looks and smells like. LOL.

I don't own anything that has a cabin air filter. But man that looks GROSS!

whoa.. that is dirty. Good video.. Now i need to check my vehicles cabin air filters.

Just in time, as this is something Ive been putting into works on our Infiniti Q45. I feel the airflow isn't as powerful as it should be for such a large car, and it does occasionally smell. This is also a great eye opener as to what the evaporator coils look like on cars not equipped with cabin air filters. So your door checks are worn out too? I know these things have some heavy doors...

Literally a life saver dude

Leave the latch bar till last to loosen, Why? It holds the glovebox from falling out as you loosen the lower screws

ho Lee crap

HEY HAVE YOU CHANGED THE KNOCK SENSORS AND CAN YOU DO A VIDEO ON 1998 Q45

I have a 2000 q45 anniversary edition, 97k I'm gonna sell it this is rediculoso

Dude you saved the day!! Thank you

how about the driver side do it have a cabin air filter as well?
