My cover had 5 screws holding the cover. I was only able to get 3 of the 5 back in😂(typical man with left over screws/bolts/parts). Quick tip, if you have a multi tool cut it with that and scrap the box cutter idea. Thanks for the video!!
Just one of many reasons why GM had to be bailed out and fell from #1 Automaker Many years ago. Thanks for the video. Unreal they’d make something so complicated.
jeez louise all this time i was looking for a set of screws and bolts but now I have to cut the plastic to get that thing out ??? Ah well now I know thanks for the video you really helped me out alot !!
So folks would just place the cabin filter and not file some kind of complaint or lawsuit for GM suvs/trucks for not installing one to begin with? It seems like they feel its an insignificant part today.
After cutting the hole out and smoothing and filing the edges nice and smooth I went to put the same filter u show and it wouldn't go with the white tabs out like yours. It went in really easy the other way though. Do I have to take it out and turn it around or will it be ok.
I have various wrenches and sockets but none that are short enough to allow access to the drive shaft hump screw and still be long enough to reach up! Too bad you didn’t show us what you used or how much you spent on the tool
Oops, my apologies, I watched some other videos on newer than 2001 Chevy Tahoe's, and the the cabin air filter does have to be retro fitted. Best of luck.
@@tonyportaro3184 Probably too late to help you. I had to make my own tool to remove that bolt when replacing the vent door actuator. I regret that I can’t recall exactly what I did but it involved black tape, a socket and a flex-joint, I believe. Search for a video on vent door actuator replacement. One of them showed what it takes to remove and replace that bolt.
Try putting your filter in with the notches facing right. This ASE mechanic shows that's the way they should go. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Jxku-1HEZCE.html
@@fabianfierro5406 It's not a "must have" ... That being said, when have you ever seen ANY HVAC system that doesn't use a filter. I'm choosing to do in my 06 Denali
