Tesla model 3 air filter replacement

- Tesla recommends replacing the cabin air filters every 2 years to prevent pollen, dust and other particles from entering the cabin[9][10].
- The cabin air filters are located behind the glove box on the passenger side. You need to remove the floor mat, trim pieces, and access panel to access the filters[11].
- Two cabin air filters are required for replacement. Tesla sells them individually for $17 each on their shop website[9].
- Aftermarket cabin air filter kits are also available from various sellers on sites like Amazon, eBay and Mercari. Prices range from $8.99 to $49.99 for a 2-pack[1][2][3][4][5][6][8][12].
- The filters have a pull tab to make removal and installation easier. The airflow direction is marked on the filter[11].
- Cabin air filters should be replaced every 8-12 months or 12,000-15,000 miles, especially in dusty or humid environments[12].
