Yea if you need a how to for this, you really shouldn't be touching your car

 

I did it in the parking lot at subway waiting for my friend to show up for lunch. Lol it really was that easy

 

None of the cobalts use a carbon activated filter. If they did they would be very expensive.

In the factory owners manual it is written to replace the filter every other oil change or 15,000 miles.

Don't get too upset thought if you're over-due. Most car's don't even have one :P

 

I changed mine at 28k. The AC still smells bad when you first turn it on. WTF?

 

i work at a chevy/nissan dealer and i have been debating whether or not to soak one in fart spray and shove it into someone's dash

 

You won't

 

ur prolly right but damn i want too so effin bad


i should check my cabin filter, my car has 25k on it now. but im kinda lazy. i haven't even checked to see if my k&n needs to be cleaned or wutever and it has been on the car since it was 2 weeks old

 

you should probalby get on that LOL.

 

Yow will be good. I didn't even know I had one until about 60k

 

i havent even checked the intake filter yet. cabin filter i'll hold off on now

 

Where is it located? How do I get to it on an 09 tc.

 

open the glovebox then you bend the stops back (bend the sides of the glovebox inwards towards the center of the glovebox so it will clear the dash) so it can hang by the hinge. Then you have access to the filter door

 

Mold on the evap...your filter won't do anything for that. Try an anti-fungal foam you can buy at a parts store. You spray it up through the evap drain on the passenger side firewall under the hood. It worked for me but get the good stuff and do a couple applications.

 

got the car at 22k miles and this is the first time changing it ....oops lol
* car currently sits at 99k miles

 

Nice haha

 

hmm his first post, black, make it his last! lol

 

Erod beat me to it

 

I work at a honda dealer, and today I did one in a cr-v, It was very hard to pull out and you could hear things dropping into the blower motor, turn out it was dog food, some type of rodent must have had a stash, Had to pull the blower motor to get all the food out of the cage

 

That's funny
