Time flies, time flies! The most precious thing in the world is time.
As time goes by! Cruz has also been with me for nine years.
Nine years of ups and downs. It is also time for Cruze to replace the parts. Many large items still need to be replaced in the store! Some small pieces are still affordable to replace by yourself!
A nine-year-old Cruz is still so handsome after being washed!
It was this spiritual appearance that confused my love!
Today, I am going to replace Cruze’s air conditioning filter element by myself! I seem to have forgotten to change it last year!
Purchased by a treasure! Buy a few more for more affordable prices! I did not purchase a filter element with PM2.5 filtering function. All I bought was the most common filter element!
Look at this! Cruze and Regal use the same accessories!
Cruze’s air conditioning filter element is in the co-pilot’s glove box!
Open the glove box! Find the clips on both sides of the inside of the glove box!
This is the clip!
This is the right one! One on the left and right!
The structure of the clip!
This is what Xiao Kazi looks like! The steps to remove the clip are as follows! Open the outside first and gently pull outwards obliquely! You have to slowly find a good angle! Finally, lift the glove box and you can take it off! Very simple.
This is the glove box with the clip removed, and the opening degree has become wider so that you can see the air conditioning filter element inside.
You need a small tool here, not necessarily the picture model, in fact, just find a small iron bar!
This is where the air conditioning filter element is stored! There are three buckles on the outer cover, one in the left, center and right! The clip in the middle needs a small iron bar to help pry it! Because my hands are difficult to use!
Open three buckles! The air conditioning filter element can be replaced smoothly.
Let’s take apart the new air conditioning filter element.
The new filter element is clean!
This is the removed air conditioning filter element. It looks dirty!
Look at this dirty thing hidden in these folds and gaps!
This is the location where the air conditioning filter element is installed! The inside is also a little dirty and should be washed.
This air conditioning filter element is differentiated into straight sides! Watch the direction of the arrow!
This is the front of the air conditioning filter element! That is, the upward side!
This is the opposite side of the air conditioning filter element! That is, the downward side!
This is the installed look!
Replace with a new air conditioning filter element. Close the lid. Snap and fasten! It’s done.
This small round shaft is the pulley effect of the glove box!
First drag up the glove box, find a good position, first put the circular shaft back on, push it up at a good angle, see the position of the small opening! Push it to the head and press it to complete the reset and installation.
After installing the two buckles, try opening and closing the glove box. Cruze’s glove box opening and closing has a slow-descending design! In fact, there is generally no problem when installed.
It takes only twenty minutes to replace the air conditioning filter element like this! Something worth more than ten yuan! If you go to the repair shop, you will have to spend 20 yuan on working hours!
Do it yourself, saving time and money! It can also improve your hands-on ability!
