VW Cabin Air Filter Replacement in South Charleston, WV

Volkswagen Cabin Air Filter Basics

Whenever you drive on a dusty road, you may notice a dust cloud surrounding your car as you still enjoy fresh, clean air. This can be attributed to the power of the cabin air filter when it is functioning at top efficiency. It helps stop dirt, dust, allergens, debris, many bad smells, and more from passing through to the interior as fresh air is pulled into the heating and cooling system.

Cabin Air Filter Wear

Your filter keeps the air in your vehicle cabin scrubbed by blocking various allergens and pollutants. Many do become trapped in the filter itself, and it begins to get dirty and exhibit signs of wear, such as minor tears. The filtering efficiency declines with build-up and structure degradation, reducing airflow into the cabin.
