Cabin Air Filter 2002 V70 XC

Post by Bauerinfo »

I have a 2002 V70 XC that has almost no air coming through the vents when it is on full blast. I think it is the Cabin Air Filter. But I cannot find it.

Help!!!

Carl, the filter is located underneath the dash on the passenger side under the glovebox. Take a look at http://volvoxc.com/resources/how-to/cab ... /index.php

I Thank you SOOOOOO Much. Where did you find your resource?

Volvo in Denver said it was behind the glove box and that you have to take the glove box off in order to replace.

Some dealers want to make it tough on us DIYer's so they can make some extra $$....a true shame. :twisted:

The link to the illustration was VERY helpful. Was very easy to follow and simple to replace. I used a Volvo OEM filter made in Austria, by Behr. Thanks for the help!
