So much easier than my RX8 and miata. Ty.
No fuss details 🙂
Thanks a lot I will do myself now
Had a 2007 Mazda 3 and replacing the cabin filter was a total nightmare. Just got a 2023 and this is so simple. Very happy Mazda solved this issue. Thanks for the excellent video.
Can you recommend filter brands that would fit if I don’t use Mazda’s part
Omgosh dealer wanted to charge a fortune for this but I almost understand why. My filter, in my 2019. Mazada Mazda 3 that has only 13826 miles, looks like a cross between a dirty vacuum cleaner bag, a plant nursery, and a Petri dish. Wtfrock. Thank you sooooooo much!!!
I can’t believe it’s so hard to find a decent cabin air filter for this car. Autozone doesn’t have em and Amazon is showing models that dont really work in fitnent like wtf
The goddamn owners manual didn't come with instructions and it's not as simple as other cars so thank you for this!
Dealer wanted $150 to do this lmao. THANK YOU
Thank you for the excellent instructions – I'm never paying a dealer to do that again!
That's nice, I'm just so glad that I just had to pay Mazda $80 at the dealership to replace a gunked up one, and the car is only a year old or so. Ridiculous. I'm ordering two of these
later this week and keeping them in the trunk for next year. Really fing pisses me off.
Where can you buy a cabin air filter for gen 4?
Thanks! So much easier than on my old Mini Cooper.
Thank you. It was the TOP clip I didn't see.
I bought a washable cabin filter from K&N, and its suppose to be the match for my MAZDA 3 2020,
but it leaves a gap and doesnt seal like the original filter, should I still use it?
VF2074 K&N CABIN AIR FILTER
Excellent, thank you very much!
