I've noticed a strange smell in my Kia Soul and someone told me it could be the cabin air filter. I've never changed it before, so I'm wondering if it's something I can do on my own or if I should take it to a mechanic. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
ReplyHi Samantha! Changing the cabin air filter on your Kia Soul is actually a pretty simple task. All you need to do is locate the filter, which is usually behind the glove compartment, and replace it with a new one. You can find replacement filters at most auto parts stores or even online. It's a quick and easy way to get rid of that strange smell in your car!
I had the same issue with my Kia Soul and changing the cabin air filter made a world of difference. It's definitely something you can do on your own and you'll save money by not taking it to a mechanic. Just make sure to regularly replace the filter about every 12,000 miles to keep your car smelling fresh.
I recommend checking your owner's manual for specific instructions on how to change the cabin air filter on your Kia Soul. It varies slightly depending on the year and model. But overall, it's a simple task that anyone can do. Give it a try and see if it helps with that strange smell.
