: Cleaning Cabin Air Filter

Many of us have the cabin air filters. I replaced mine a couple of weeks ago, then decided to get a new one for my wife's Murano. While changing the filter in the Murano I noticed a sticker inside the glove box. It stated that the filters could be washed and reused. These filters look as if they would come apart if they got wet, but I decided to try. The instructions said to swish the filter around in soapy warm water, rinse and let dry. This worked! The filter gets flimsy while washing, but it returned to its original shape when dried (I set it in the sun to dry)
So if your filter is not damaged, or very dirty, you can wash and reuse it, saving you about $30.00.

Good find. I haven't done mine yet, but i'm thinking about buying some filter material from Lowes and cutting it to shape. I haven't opened it up yet but that's what i'll do if it'll sit in there correctly

Mine were not that dirty after 20000 miles and 18 months. Just vacuumed them out real good,and made sure air flow was still good.
