Reviews of OEM Nissan cabin filter

Not a mechanic but have to be because I have to keep our cars on the road. I'll tell you what the bastard that decides where cabin filters need to be. I want 5 minutes alone in a room with their ass. In my wife's Nissan I have to lay on the drivers floorboard upside down with half my body out of the car on the ground to gain access to the side panel that's next to the gas pedal. From there you have to pull out this accordion looking filter element out of it's chamber that is seemingly too small for it and once your back is killing you and all the blood has rushed to your head you have to somehow shove the new one in that isn't as old and flexible without passing out. As a 40 year old overweight dude it kills me.

Nissan cabin filters being underneath the dash. My back and neck hurt too much for that shit man. Also their transmissions, because duh.

You ca replace your cabin air filter yourself and save yourself the money. I just replaced mine it’s like 4 screws but I must warn it’s a pain in the ass but it’s very doable.

I personally buy it direct from the dealer, it is $45, but fits perfectly

The cabin air filter is expensive because they're a shitbag on a Rogue ( and Nissan in general )

Maintenance for our EVs: annual washer fluid and wiper blades; biannual cabin air filter

I have done zero maintenance, outside of wipers, one set of tires (because I hit a pothole) and cabin air filter, on my 12 year old Leaf.

replace cabin air filter recommended every 15K miles

Changed cabin filter twice myself.

Cabin air filter is something you need to replace periodically. $130 seems high but I have tried it myself and found it to be a PITA. I took it to a dealer, who charged something like $100 but it felt worth it to me.
