Yes thank you! I went to a Honda dealership and told them some unpleasant smell is coming out of my ventilation system. (Fyi: I keep my 2019 Honda Si super clean inside and outside). Anyways, they told me to go to Canadian Tire to buy some product I spray into the vents. Needles to say the odour is still there now it's a double odour of spray and something unpleasant. I have faith that changing the cabin filter will make a complete difference. What baffles me is that a technician would not recommend such a simple thing. Unbelievable!!!! Thanks for your video! :)

I changed my oil and put the exact ramping according to the owners manual 4.2 liters and the dipstick says it’s over the limit so idk what to make of it.
@skaizun
@skaizun Год назад
I have no idea what "ramping" means, and you didn't specify how much "over the limit" meant, never mind your vehicle's details, but, for your and everyone's benefit, there are a number of factors that may affect the oil reading. 1) Make sure you used the correct WEIGHT/viscosity oil for your vehicle (most modern passenger cars range from 0w20 up to 10w30). The viscosity/thickness of the oil may affect its reading, but, not to a great extent. Synthetic vs "natural" oil are, virtually, the same, viscosity-wise, at least, for this discussion. If you followed your manual's instructions, then you should be fine in that regard. 2) Check ALL fluids on LEVEL ground. 3) Make sure you are looking at the CORRECT line or dimple on the dipstick. There are, usually, 2 such; one showing the minimum level and is within 1" or so of the bottom of the dipstick (i.e, the end that gets inserted), and another within 2" or so above that indicating the maximum level. Some dipsticks may have a cross-pattern showing the "acceptable" ("between") levels; some may have another dimple showing the "mid-point." 4) You may have THOUGHT you put in "4.2 liters" (approx 4-1/2 qts), but, you put in too much. Again, since you didn't specify what "over the limit" meant, there is no way to know whether it's an acceptable level (i.e., a 1/4" difference on either side of the dipstick is not a concern). 5) After replacing the oil drain bolt, and installing the new filter and oil, run the engine for about 30 seconds to get the oil run through the entire engine (n.b., the outside temperature will not affect oil dispersal, per se). Turn the engine off. Wait a half-hour. Check the dipstick. Readings slightly above or below the "maximum" reading, even within . 6) Not all filters are created alike. Some are thinner or thicker than others, so that may affect the reading. Again, for the most part, slight low/high readings are not an issue. When in doubt, have it professionally done (of course, there's no guarantee that they get it right, either!).

just found out that cabin air filters need to be mounted in a specific direction of flow. Didn't know about this and recently did mine (which was a complete pain in the a*se), so the chances I installed it backwards are 50/50. Do I really really need to check it, or it can wait until next replacement? reaching the filter is very cumbersome in my car, I have to take the glove box, air ducts and blower out of the way, what takes me a solid hour to do (and then another hour to put it back). Thanks.

I dutifully change my filter yearly. Each time I do I have to refresh my brain by pulling out my old install notes and reminding myself about arrow orientation. This is for a 2009 Hyundai Tucson. The 'closest' instructional video by Fram on their site is for the 2008 Kia Sportage. Fair enough. Except that the audio content they offer says to have the filter arrow facing UP. WRONG. This is completely at variance with what they are SHOWING in the video. Particularly when, later in the same video, the arrow on the filter housing is clearly shown facing DOWN. Sure it's simple, but not with errors like this by Fram. I wish I'd had your video three years ago. It's bookmarked. Thanks.

For the in cabin air filters, would a Home AC type filter in the right size work just as well or better for cheaper, or do we have to go with a cabin filter specifically for cars? (Assuming a compatible size exists) Everyone knows they need to change their home filter once in a while, so I was thinking maybe that means those companies need to innovate more to beat their competition. Versus the OEM may not be using the best media in their filters. Thoughts?

Cabin air filters can do more harm than good. I don't live in a hermetically sealed environment, and I have minor allergies to pollen. I don't have house AC, and I live in a slightly rural area; the windows are often open. In my car, the windows are open as much as possible and are closed only when it's too hot (use AC) or too cold (use the heater). None of my earlier cars had cabin air filters, and I did not have problems. A few decades ago, car manufacturers started installing cabin air filters. These are great, especially if you live in a dusty place or you have moderate to sever allergies, in which case you probably live in a closed environment. The big problem I have with cabin air filters is that car air systems do not properly keep out vermin including deer mice. In my later cars with cabin air filters, the mice love to nest, pee, and poop on top of the cabin air filters. With Hantavirus, this is a dangerous situation. For me, it's better to remove the cabin air filter than to breath Hantaviruses. Of course, I still have to eliminate mice in my cars. Everything I read on either the internet or see on RU-vid is written by folks who sell or replace cabin air filters, so they all say they are great. Nobody I've seen says, "Here are the pros and cons. It's up to you to decide."

The leaves and dust that are on TOP of the air filter are NOT what you're breathing in! Those are the particles that the cabin filter has trapped from the incoming air, exactly as it was meant to do. The BOTTOM of the air filter is what you breathe, and, even though it may appear dirty, it does its job fairly well, even in the condition shown in the vid. If you do NOT have an allergy or respiratory issue, or sensitive eyes/skin/etc, then you may delay changing the filter until the manufacturer's recommended miles have elapsed. If you don't have such issues, then check the filter every 6 months, by removing it (not all cabin filter housings appear as shown, and some are quite difficult to remove), turn it upside down, and knock out any debris, just as shown in the vid; if you wish, use a VERY soft brush (typically, the kind used with dust pans), and GENTLY clean the top and bottom. Do NOT use any kind of air cylinder/spray, as the force may punch a hole through the filter. Replace the air filter in the same position as you removed it (most filters have one side with arrows or writing on it, so you can easily tell not only which way is up, but which way faces the interior of the car (i.e., the arrow/written side)). Generally speaking, if you hold the air filter up to a strong light or the sun, and you can clear see through it or you can't see the light source at all, then it's time to change it.

Fram makes a good cabin filter. These need to be changed once a year minimum. It’s cheap and easy to do. Get a charcoal one. It’s worth the extra $1-2

When I run my AC I am using outside fresh air not recirculated air. I gave you thumbs up. I think you could have mentioned that all horizontally mounted cabin air filters with the blower motor mounted below the filter will have downward air flow regardless if make or model. On Toyotas it usually say "Up" on the plastic panel or tray. That does not indicate air flow direction but simply is telling us which side of those parts go up when you reinstall them. Same with an OEM filter. If it says up next to the arrows then it points up. If it says "air flow" it points down.

Judging by the comments seems there should have been some discussion on the difference between "air flow" and "up".

What is the difference
@njsongwriter
@njsongwriter 3 года назад
@@goldkiller1324 The OEM Toyota cabin air filter says up on at least one edge of the filter, as does the plastic panel over the filter and if you have a model where the filter fits into a tray, the tray will also say up on it. All these UPs mean just that. They are telling you which side goes up. No where on any OEM parts does it say anything about air flow direction. Now if you buy an aftermarket non-OEM filter, most of them will say air flow on them. Up means up but if your filter says air flow, the air flow direction is down. Usually if one of these filters comes with directions it will tell you the arrows should be installed pointing down. It's easy to tell what the air flow direction is by the very fact that dirt collects on the top of the old filter. The incoming dirty air enters the top of the filter and the clean air goes through the filter and into the blower to be distributed through the vents
