Good job explaining air flow direction versus UP arrow indicator. The leaf was a nice touch.

[anthonyiannone]

100% correct, leave it to the automotive engineers to label everything up when air flow is down!!

You're saving a lot of people showing this trick

[KramNebuer]

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I read the manual twice and box instructions twice and panicked bc my new filter didn’t have an up arrow. Your explanation and leaf test were just what I needed!!

[helenkoether]

Thanks for your very thorough explanation. I watched 2 videos before and couldn’t understand how to change the filter until I watched your video.

one of the best, if not the best instructional video On this topic. Thank you!!

[TheXeroid]

Excellent video. I came upon this one because others were unclear. Your video has cleared up all confusion, thank you.

[beeparadise]

Thanks for this tutorial! It helped me figure out the most logical thing-- that the leaf and dirt would be on the in-flow side of the filter :)

You are a life saver - I was going nuts when I pulled out my Lexus Cabin air Filter lol

[panplayer]

Super helpful! I’m glad you mentioned the difference with the after market. I was using a new Bosch and was confused. Thanks!

Great explanation- I replaced the filter in my Corolla in about 2 min! Thanks for this video!

[JB_yeg]

You always have the answers I need for my Rav. Thanks again!!!👍🏻👊🏻

Good video. And most (maybe all) cabin filters flow top to bottom to collect debris like dried leaves that enter through the intake.

[mollyelliott]

Great videos! Such good quality instruction!
