I own a 2020 Outback and was going to be charged $150 to change both filters. I decided to try myself and wow! Was this so easy with your video. First tike I've ever done anything on a car. Easy peasy!! Thank you!
The Nissan dealer did this to my wife's rogue. I told her not to have them do it, but she did anyway. It was like $90 just to replace the one filter.
Thank you so much you were very clear with your instructions. I am an 80-year-old woman and I will not be intimidated to do this myself once I get my wilderness Crosstrek. Need to save money wherever possible and I’m sure I will be on many dirt roads yipeee!
This is the best "how-to" video I have ever seen on RUclips for a Subaru Outback. The step-by-step directions are very clear & comprehensive. The filming has great lighting and super camera angles. You should be very proud of this video. (I have the same make and model Subaru Outback as featured in this video).
I appreciate that, thanks!
big thumbs up to you. I am facing 30k mile service on my '20 Outback and eager to reduce costs; if I can do this much on my own ( and cabin filter ) I will have saved a bundle. thank you so much for "dumbing it down" for me; I have zero aptitude for this type of thing and your video is incredibly helpful.
Thank you for being clear about the airflow. So many videos don't explain that, and I know there's so many people that don't know much about vehicles.
BY FAR the best how-to video I have ever seen on RUclips. So clear, comprehensive, and has great lighting and camera angles. You should be very proud of this video. I did not need a such great video to change the cabin air filter. but I know I could give my 12-year-old niece a screwdriver (just for prying) and this video and she could change both filters correctly !!!
Thanks! I appreciate the kind words. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for being so thorough! This is the best instructional video I've seen for this task.
Glad it was helpful!
As others have said, a very well done video. Clear, well narrated, and most importantly you took the time to actually give the viewer the angle they will see when doing the job themselves. 95% of how to videos show a guy with a camera to his back goin, "Okay, and now you take the flux capacitor mount and place the plutonium right here..", and of course you cannot see "right here". Seems obvious, but clearly it is not.
I have a 2019 Outback, Limited 3.6R and it was dead on. Thanks, Saved me about $40.
Very clear and sure gave me peace of mind knowing that I can do it myself without paying the dealer a small forturne.
Big thank you! Our Subaru Dealership just tried to up-sell my spouse for $200 to change these filters, just bought them and will use the video to change them myself. Really appreciate you making this content and linking the parts you used.
As a 70yo woman, the dealer wanted to charge me over $130 to replace both filters on my 2021 Outback. Amazon to the rescue, and all it cost me was
Glad the video was helpful. Thanks for the comment!
Same here!
2020 Outback and it worked just as you showed. I would have had trouble without your video. Thanks....bought the filters for $28 on Amazon...same as the ones you showed. Subaru wanted about $110. Thanks
Excellent. Made me realize just how simple this replacement is for both filters. Thank You
I've been changing the filters on my 2012 Kia for years. I just needed to know where the engine air filter was. Easy stuff. Thank you.
Great video. Clear, sharp photography and easy-to-follow instructions. You have a new subscriber.
Thanks for such a well produced and thought out How To video. You avoided all the typical home video issues, so thanks for making our lives easier.
Happy to help! Thanks for the comment
Thanks for the video. I’m changing mine from now on. The dealership charges $50 each to do these. Rock Auto sells the filters for under $10 each. Bye bye dealership.
Well done Paul, excellent video-easy to follow the detailed, step-by step instructions
Thanks!
Paul, thanks for your video as it helped me and I am sure others too. FYI, it is the same change out process for the air filter on my 2021 Subaru Outback, 2.4L Turbo engine and the cabin air filter.
Good video--all-in-all better than several others I reviewed before changing filters on my 2019 Outback. This would also work for many others besides the Outback.
Note that on a 2019 and many earlier models, the clips for the engine air filter hinge in the opposite direction. It may be a good idea, despite the extra few minutes of work, to remove the filter box to make sure no debris fell into the box or housing.
For the cabin filter, the process is basically the same, but the filter cover clips are vertical instead of horizontal, and there are small differences in mounting the glove box.
Thankfully Subaru made the filters replaceable without tools. The dealer wanted about $100 more than the cost of the filters for both, which works out to about $300/hour!
Great instructions. You do very well at keeping an even flow with your delivery. I feel very confident I can replace both filters at this point thank you so much.
This video is incredible thank you! So thorough and slow and great angles and video quality! Thank you!!
GREAT VIDEO, one of the better ones I've seen on RUclips. I would be grateful to see the procedure to change the air filter on a 2022 Subaru outback turbo. thank you!
I just changed the cabin air filter. Easy! Now I will do the engine. Great step by step video.
Glad it helped
I like how you cover all the bases. Very informative to those who want to DIY. Well done and keep it up.
Thank you!
You gentleman are an amazing teacher!!! Thank you so much!
Super helpful! I appreciate your attention to detail 🤙🏾
Awesome video. Your filming and explanation is top notch for a beginner and intermediate viewer.
Super helpful video, same process worked on a 2021 Subaru Impreza
cracking video, just got my Gen 6 2022 Outback today. Def different from my 2019 Gen 5 -- thought my K&N was re-usable, but nope need a new one.
You got a like and a comment because even I can follow your instructions. Great job.
Great explanation Paul. I am changing my filters tomorrow. I will let you know how it went. Thanks, FF MisterP. 13:17
Great easy to follow video. This process work just as you demonstrated for my 2020 Outback Onyx edition (same color as yours 🙂) Changed both filters in a few minutes. Thanks Paul!
Glad to hear! Thanks for watching and leaving the comment.
Thank you for the detailed instructions. You left nothing for me to worry about. 😀
Perfect instructions for my 2020 outback turbo
excellent guide! was unsurprisingly the same on my 2020.
Great, thanks for confirming its the same for a 2020!
Excellent video with very clear instructions.
I have a 2023 Outback Touring and this worked for me, thanks! Saved me $65 in labor that the oil change place wanted to charge me 🙄
good point on the air flow direction.
Great detail on the step by step. Thank you!
Awesome thank you on my 2022 Outback Wilderness the engine air filter same spot just looked slightly different but all went on the same!! Thank you
Good to hear. Thanks for the comment
Worked on my 2022 outback wilderness turbo. Thanks!
Same for my Forester Sport 2023! Cheers from Puerto Rico!
Awesome video! Thanks!!
Saved $100 by doing it myself. Thanks
This is how you do a how to video! I don’t even own an outback but hoping these tricks work for the 2024 Crosstrek!
Very helpful, thanks!
Nicely done! Thanks
Great detailed explanation.
Thank you for this, saved me a ton
Thank you very much. This video is so useful.
Easy breezy 👌 thank you!
Excellent video. Thanks.
I just traded in my 2016 Outback for a 2024. The process is exactly the same for both filters. Good video.
good to know, thanks! Congrats on the 2024 :)
Excellent job. Great advice!
Thanks for commenting on my first upload and correcting me!
Excellent. Thank you!!
2021 Ascent and it worked great. Thanks.
Great to hear!
Thanks for great video.
Thank you! Very easy to understand.
Thanks for watching! Hope it was helpful.
This is great!! Thank you!
You're so welcome!
Thank you. Works for a 2024 Subaru Legacy.
You are very best working
Thanks. nice job!
Thanks for watching!
Very nicely presented 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks!
Helpful video. Unreal how much they charge for this at the dealer.
I know right? I just changed the cabin filter and it took me more time to clear out the glove box than to change the actual filter! I hate myself for not knowing how to do this years ago.
Thanks .. mine look real bad. Not sure , they just charged me and not bother to change. I bought some 4 of them for my 2016 outback 3.6L .. I saw mileage drop by nearly 10% and some power too. Hope to get my 30mile / gallon again. I change my oil since last 3 changes.
Hello, do you think this way works out same to my 2022 subaru impreza base trim? Thanks for the video!!
Thanks I have same year and engine in my outback 😅
Wow, not hard at all. Thank you
This same procedure works for my 2014 Outback, just some minor differences in appearance.
Great! Thanks for letting us know.
This was the same process for changing both of these filters on my 2022 Outback Wilderness
Great, thanks for confirming!
@@BoostedFilms you're welcome
Thumps up,
The old air filter you took out had the air filter arrow pointing up. The new filter you installed you said put the arrow down. Which is it? It appears if it is a NON OEM-version vers an original OEM Subaru the direction of the arrow is different Original Subaru OEM part, arrow points up to the sky, stated in the manual. Non- OEM version arrow down for air flow direction.
It depends on what you buy. OEM has an arrow but doesn't say "air flow direction". Most after market filters give you the air flow direction arrow (not an up arrow). If what you bought has an air flow direction arrow, it should be pointed down, like the one i installed in this video. If you bought an OEM filter and it just has an arrow, put the arrow up, as stated in the manual.
Nice Video, particularly the cabin filter. I just picked up the set for my wife's Subie, they seem very flimsy. Would you recommend the carbon filter in your video?
Thanks. I personally would not worry too much which cabin air filter you use. Feel free to buy whatever you like best. Cheers
@@BoostedFilms Thanks, I inspected the old oem filter, omg, it's sooo thin and the material was brittle and crusty after 18k. A N95 mask has more filtering potential, it's so cheap, bad on Subaru. Next maintenance round, I won't spend the $30+ for the dealer unit, I'll try an aftermarket one for sure.
I suggest you use the OEM or similar. The system is designed to work with a specific filter, just like your HVAC system at home. Installing a heavier filter will restrict airflow and possibly damage the blower motor or decrease the life of systems protected by the filter. I change mine at least twice yearly, once for the heating and once for the cooling season or if I detect any odor. I paid $18.50 for the cabin filter at the dealer this weekend, similar to the parts stores.
I have a 2010 Outback and do not have the second permanent filter. I have the check engine light going off (P0420), but am told it is not a catalytic converter issue, but likely a mixture issue. Any idea what that filter does and if it is necessary? Possibly a reason why the check engine light is going off?
That secondary filter would most likely not be the reason.
Same as the 2.4L turbo?
On the one you took out arrows were pointing up on filter! The one you put in you said the arrows pointed down, which is it??
It can depend on which filter you buy. Most I've seen have the arrow pointer indicate the air flow direction. Others could just be a general up arrow.
I’m a first time 2023 Subaru outback owner as far as the double mesh filter that also a separate filter that you need to buy?
Hello. I'm not sure what you specific concern is. But if you just want to make sure you have the correct filters, just by them from your local Subaru dealer.
Newbie here. When to change engine air filter? After a year?
I believe every 25,000-30,000 miles is what is recommended. But you can look at it anytime and change if it seems dirty.
12-15K
Would this work for the turbo version?
Cabin air filter would be the same i'd bet. Engine air filter is in little a different location under the hood i'd guess.
Whats the purpose of the inside mess if you have a air filter already??? Restricted air flowww ????
be VERY careful not to let any junk fall down the ductwork under it or you will have to pull the blower motor to clean it...not fun
Very true. If they are super dirty on top, you should be extra careful. Use a vacuum if necessary. I just had a very dirty one recently on this Ford Fushion. ruclips.net/video/TVppbC33pQ0/видео.html
YES! The video even showed a large leaf or some kind of debris that could easily have been knocked off when removing the cabin filter.
Used this for the cabin filter a few months ago and just did the engine filter now. Subaru wanted $900 for the 30k service 😂 🤡. I paid $350 at a reputable shop for everything except the engine filter and did that myself for $20. I wouldn’t mind paying a bit more to go to the dealership but nearly 2.5x as much? Get out of here.
Did that mess up your service contract? Because on mine I can't do my own oil and filter changes without losing the agreement idk if filters apply to that because I'm not trying to pay for for cabin and engine installation when I can pay 40 for three of each filter🤣
NOBODY CALLS IT CABIN HVAC FILTER
ITS SIMPLY CABIN AIR FILTER
Hey i followed your intructions and now my car wont start ?
