2014-2018 Kia Forte Cabin Air Filter Replacement (2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018)

Inleiding

Follow this guide to replace the cabin air filter of your 2014-Present Kia Forte and save yourself money and time. Over time, your cabin air filter will become clogged with dust, leaves, hair, and other debris, leading to reduced cabin air flow. Replacing your filter will prevent pollutants such as dust, pollen, bugs, and other debris from entering your vehicle.

Kia recommends replacing the cabin air filter every 10,000 miles in extreme conditions and every 15,000-30,000 miles in classic driving conditions. Replacement will take about 5 minutes, and requires no tools. The filter can be purchased at your local automotive store such as O’Reilly, AutoZone, or Advanced Auto.

The air filter should now be exposed. Remove the air filter and replace with a new one.
