Product Detail
This genuine Subaru cabin air filter is designed to fit specific models perfectly. It fits 2008 - 2014 Subaru WRX, 2008 - 2021 Subaru STI, 2013 - 2017 Subaru Crosstrek, and 2014 - 2018 Subaru Forester XT. Cabin air filters are essential for your Subaru's HVAC system. They trap foreign particles like dust, allergens, pollutants, mold spores, bacteria, and debris from the outside air drawn into your car. This not only ensures the air quality inside your Subaru for you and your passengers but also optimizes airflow when using heat, defrosters, or air - conditioning. It's advisable to replace the cabin air filter every 12,000 miles. However, if you notice decreased airflow of hot or cold air, an unpleasant smell from the vents, or an overdue service interval mileage, it's time for a replacement. Using a genuine Subaru cabin air filter is a smart choice. It fits exactly into your HVAC system, uses engineered materials to trap microscopic particles, and ensures maximum air flow. Generic filters may reduce heating and air - conditioning performance. Note that the recommended mileage is based on the Maintenance Schedule in your Warranty & Maintenance Booklet. Your replacement interval may vary depending on your vehicle, road conditions, weather, and driving habits. Subaru of America only warrants parts installed on a car with a matching VIN.
Using this Subaru cabin air filter is easy. Just locate the air filter housing in your Subaru (you can find the exact location in your car's manual). Open the housing, take out the old filter, and insert the new genuine Subaru cabin air filter in its place. Make sure it's properly seated. When it comes to replacement, aim for every 12,000 miles. But keep an eye out for signs like less airflow or a bad smell from the vents. These are signals that you might need to replace it sooner. The replacement interval can be affected by things like the roads you drive on, the weather, and how you drive. For maintenance, always use a genuine Subaru cabin air filter. Generic filters might not work as well and could even reduce your car's heating and air - conditioning performance. Also, remember that Subaru of America will only warranty parts installed on a car with a matching VIN, so keep your records handy.
