Where has time gone? In the blink of an eye, my Bo Yue has been with me for seven years. Although when I was doing routine maintenance in the 4S shop four months ago, the maintenance master had already removed and cleaned the air conditioner filter, but after a summer of frequent use of air conditioners, it is also the time when bacteria in the car are most likely to grow. In addition, it is autumn again, and in February, the hot air conditioner on the car will be used every day. For the sake of health and ensuring fresh air in the car, the role played by the air conditioner filter element is very important at this time. Because of this, this filter element has been used for more than a year, and it is still necessary to replace it. Here, I would like to first thank the gods with strong hands-on skills on various platforms for their do-it-yourself replacement videos and the recommendations of air conditioner filter brands, so that I am not lost in a daze. The video sharing of the whole process of DIY replacing the filter element allowed me to learn the methods and skills of disassembly and assembly, so that I didn’t blindly start, saved time and energy, and made the actual operation less difficult. I would like to express my great gratitude.
Without saying much, I will directly submit the picture and start working. I hope everyone will like it and support and correct it more. Thank you.

For the tools used, thanks to Aika, the super practical prize you won in the essay collection for previous activities.
