How do you change the cabin air filter 2004 toyota solara?

Answer 1

I can help you with that but first a reminder. The information is in your owner's manual along with a couple of pictures that might help guide the way. The manual is also a terrific source of information for programming alarms and door locks and windows, moonroofs etc. All of those items have an assortment of modes and only the owner's manual will tell you how to program them.

Now, about that filter.

1. Sit in the passenger set with a Phillips type screwdriver. Open the glovebox door.

2. On the right side of the door you'll find a small strut. Remove the single screw holding that strut to the door.

3. Save the screw in a safe place (a cup in the cupholder is what I use) then gently pull the strut arm away from the door (toward the passenger door).

4. Allow the glovebox door to drop down then gently pull it toward the rear of the car. It'll detach from the dash. Set it aside

5. Look through the opening you've created and you'll see a slide out drawer. Slide it out and voila, there's the filter.

6. Before removing the filter from the tray note its orientation so you'll know which side is up (direction of airflow) when you replace it.

7. Remove the old filter and put your new filter in the tray.

Assembly is the same as disassembly (but in reverse, natch)
