Thanks for the video! It is a difficult job especially when the car is on the street or on floor. I am wondering how you managed to do it so easily and on top of that managed to video it.. Oscar worthy effort..
Yes it is a stretch to get to this install. We did this with our legs kicked out and our head under the glovebox lol. Getting a pad for your knees helps and laying a blanket over the edge of the car door will help too. We also use flash lights so we can see in the dark spaces.
Yeah, the people walking by when I was doing this must have thought I was doing automobile Yoga or something. Dang, that is a tough spot to access.
@@jus1taj Crazy difficult. Did it yesterday, the only way I could do it was to ask the gf to help with the screws.
The hardest part, in my opinion was getting the top part of the filter back up and seated so it didnt just fall back down as soon as you let go of it. I just did mine tonight.@@BansheeFifteen
Thank you for the video. Changed mine yesterday and was pain in the neck. No disrespect but if you're overweight please don't even bother doing it yourself. You literally have to to tuck your head under the dash and there's literally no room there
You're welcome! DIY is not for everyone, this is the partially why we make our videos. So you know what to expect.
Omg! I just finished this. What a awful design. 😣
I want to find the designer and make them do this 100 times.
I agree it is a poor design.
Filterheads I also love how all the metal pipes right by the screws are 1000 degrees! Definitely a job to do AFTER the car has had a while to cool.
Thanks for the video! After watching several others on this, I finally gave it a go for my 2012 Mazda5. It’s a total pain in the neck, just like everyone says. It’s difficult because you cannot clearly see the top two screws of the cover you need to remove. I ended up going at it by feel, and using the shortest screwdriver I could find. It took me 45 minutes to complete the whole thing (I vacuumed it out too) but at least I know what to do now.
Thank you for informing us!
I owned a Toyota ractis and it took me 5 minutes to replace the air con filter, Mazda got it all wrong
on installing the cabin air con filter down the footwell, i am now nursing bruised knees, as well as a cramped neck just to replace AC filters, not a COOL affair at all.
Oh, the things I found in there. Gross!!! I don’t want to know why I found them. I regret buying used at this point. Still a great car.
THANK YOU for the video, it helped a LOT!!!
The second (& last) filter installed in the car, in this video, is installed in the wrong air flow direction. But other than that, thank you for this very useful video.
Glad you found the video to be helpful!
Thanks for the clip! The design for this A/C filter housing was probably the same inventor of the dental X-ray bite wing: it goes in clumsily, fits in clumsily, and you can't fully see how it's done.
LOL! I agree.
Can you vacuum the housing after you removed those 2 filters in order to get rid of all dust in the system? Thanks
Yes we it is good to clean out access debris in the housing.
The tabs on the footwell cieling panel are meant to be pushed to release, don't need to rip it out violently as shown in the video. Camera amgles were great, video was great, thank you!
Glad we were able to help!

Foi difícil mas consegui! Obrigado
Seja bem-vindo!
Thanks for sharing this. By the way, what does the sensor measure?
You're welcome!
It's a frustration sensor, it measures how pissed off you are!
That's the blower motor relay. Mine went out. Ac compressor kicks on but it wont blow out because the relay goes bad after awhile.
Hafta replace it this video helps. Thanx
Thanks for the video! 👍🏼
You bet!

Don't see the point of disconnecting the sensors, but other than that everything is good info.
Exactly. I did it without removing the cable and it works without any problems.
It is not always necessary, but can make installing the new filter easier.
Thank you.
You're welcome!

I don't see those 4 screws on my mazda 5 2010
Do you see a filter housing door?
@@filterheads yes I realize that the RHD type has a slightly different look
What a PITA. But thank you.
I agree it is a poor design by Mazda's engineers.

The absolute worst and stupid design of a cabin air filter.
I agree it is a poor design.
The design on these filters and its compartment is horrible... Thanks for the video , though!
Glad it was able to help!
