How To Change Cabin Air Filter 2016 F150

This video shows how to swap out the cabin air filter on a 2016 Ford F150. The filter is located behind the glove box. You just have to open the glove box up and remove a couple pieces of plastic to get to it.
Part number is FP-79. Link to the filter on Amazon:

One of the best how to videos I have seen, short, to the point, and totally accurate. Makes me wonder if this guy is not a full time dealership mechanic. You have raised the bar for You Tube how to videos.

[@thefiXfiles]

Hey man thanks for the kind words! It's a goal of mine to respect people's time and keep the videos short and useful. Have a good one!

[@robertkowalke9675]

Keep up the good work. I have seen some real hacks out there.

[@Thetrainkid156]

If only everyone who volunteers to make a helpful DYI RUclips video could do it as well as this one was made. Thanks for taking the time to do this

[@gabyfernando4688]

Awesome video. To the point without telling us about the family history and what was for dinner. Thank you!

[@bottomdweller5]

Thank you so much, very very helpful. The dealer charged me 50 bucks to change it, I had taken the truck in for an oil change and general maintenance. They had the filter out and told it was dirty, so I told go ahead and replace it since they already had it out. 50 bucks!

[@thefiXfiles]

Crazy man. Yeah they got me with that scam once. Never again!

[@justanotherproject2day]

Excellent video! I watch it every 10,000 miles for a reminder of the steps to replace the cabin air filter!! Cheers!!!

[@thefiXfiles]

lol same here. One of these times I’ll remember how to do it 😂

[@takayama1638]

Thanks the fiX. I need to replace my 2015 with 19,000 miles. You have the best explanation I’ve found.

[@bra1nc417d]

Is it the same as 16'?

[@kerrylewis2581]

Thanks for making an easy job easy. It took me ten minutes from start to finish.

[@logan1572]

Though a simple topic for many, this is one of the best tutorials I've ever seen. Excellent. Thank you.

[@ChevyGuy-kx7im]

I am replacing the cabin air filter in my daughter's 2016 F150 and your video was perfect. Thank you

[@canadaguy20081]

Now that’s how you make an excellent no bs video . Great job . Step by step .

[@DyscoJen]

This is a MUCH better video than the other ones I've TRIED to watch that had horrible sound and spent 12 minutes to show the same thing you did in 2. Thanks for the know-how.

[@sullivan6475]

I just paid $125 to have this replaced during my recall service appointment. Next time I’ll do it myself thanks to your video.

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Best video by far! I like your pace man! And thumbs up for the no-nonsense!

[@earl60446]

What, no stupid music playing, thumbs up just for that.

[@HoppysBronco]

Thanks for the good camera angle of the filter door

[@grandpashandymandiy4092]

I was going to make a video for changing my 2016 F150 XLT Cabin Filter but after watching your video it will not be necessary. Thanks and great job.

[@robertstonebreaker8394]

Never know different look might help some folks out

[@wilmoo1313]

Super video. Extremely accurate without wasting a lot of time. It took me a little over 10 minutes to do the entire job.

[@JJWhitley]

Very Helpful. I never knew there was another glovebox.

[@markd1882]

this is the best vid on how to replace the truck cabin filter! fast, clear, and accurate. just the way we like it

[@filymg1788]

Straight to the point,fast and clear.
Thank you very much !

[@rdam771]

Did mine this afternoon thanks to this video. Short and to the point with good light and angles. Got to point out those little hinge tabs on the bottom of the filter door. It is possible to get the door on with one tab "out", so I removed it and started over.

[@brasha78]

Excellent video the only difference between my truck is I have a lariat and there’s another wood faux trim piece that you have to pop out to get to the 7 mm bolts. Thank you so much for the solid video.

[@RobertPlattBell]

real wood on the KR...

[@chads3644]

Good video! This video was missing a specific step involved in removing a decorative trim piece above the rubber coin tray that is included in some upper trim levels. Found some help on another video for that.

[@richardalewine9726]

Thanks, made this easy and dealer charges $50 total for this $15 project.

[@Coyote-pj1iu]

Richard Alewine my dealer told me $70

[@kimberHD45]

Great video, well done. Especially having the common sense of omitting any unnecessary material.

[@dakotamechelke7485]

Short, sweet, and to the point. Appreciate that.

[@MrGeoff67]

Thank you for the video. Thank you Ford for not making it easy.

[@Watchdoc65]

Thanks! Got it done! One thing I would point out is to be careful when pulling out the upper glove box part because when you pull on it, there are little white clips (8 of them) behind it that can detach from that part!

[@RobertPlattBell]

Great video. On the King Ranch Edition, there's a wood trim strip that has to be removed in addition to the rubber floppy piece. I was able to hook a dental pick underneath it and pull gently and have it pop out. It's very easy to damage. Other than that, the replacement procedure was about the same.

[@sterlingsmith9348]

Thanks my friend! This was very helpful! Just replaced mine. Never changed since ownership. A big difference!

[@hootsmagoon]

Thanks, from a clumsy idiot. Your video made this a super easy replacement.

[@cruizin422]

Nice video, but you don't need to take out the glove box. Just remove the upper panel.

[@SirPhysical]

years later, thank you!

[@Melodyktn]

Great video, got it done myself. I don’t think anyone’s ever changed the filter in this truck.

[@maxmaximan8961]

Your explanation was very professional and totally educational.I just Subscribed to your channel,looking forward to visiting and viewing future videos of yours. Learning still after 36 year of being an auto mechanic,still with ever changing vehicle design,the learning never stops.Thank you and all other " good minds " That upload information such as yours.

[@rollinreaper]

Thank you! Couldn’t figure out how to access after removing the main glove box. Much appreciated!

[@AurnirSturmhrafn]

Thank you. This was easier than I thought it would be.

[@cailiqingsheng]

nice vid, much better than other ones for this job

[@howardbroadbent4766]

Great video. Made the job so much easier.

[@thefiXfiles]

Super concise and easily explained. Thanks

[@thefiXfiles]

Glad it helped!

[@CampDeclan]

If a perfect video exists, this is it!

[@scottbuick4192]

Great video. 1 small difference with mine was the rubber strip. It was in 2 pieces. A soft rubber piece on the ledge and a hard plastic along the back, that also just snaps in place.
Otherwise identical, thanks for the video.

[@tomhamilton7994]

Great video! Short. Perfectly on point and done correctly. I wish they are all like this. Thank you!!!

[@ciphercode2298]

Just the way we like it,short n sweet. Thanks bud

[@richardegan4917]

Great video, to the point very clear,, concise and thanks for mentioning the 7mm socket saves lime searching !

[@dutchynehtam]

Bought my ‘15 with 45k miles. Changing mine tomorrow. My cab doesn’t smell but probably worth changing anyway

[@jvmagnum12]

Great video replaced my cabin filter in about 2 minutes. Thanks

[@davesharp9656]

Hey brother, thanks for resisting the stupid music!! Nice clear narrative.

[@thefiXfiles]

[@thefiXfiles]

thanks! i watch a lot of how-to videos on youtube also and always appreciate it when people cut the fluff out and get right to the point. so i try my best to do the same.

[@darklight4815]

Just did mine..took less than 10 minutes...my glove box only has the 2 push in tabs on the sides and it drops right down...went with a Bosch hepa filter ,about the same price as the Ford filter..I don't think it matters too much though...thanks again.
