Pollen filter #location is behind the glovebox, you need to press on two tabs to release the glove compartment to open wider. Next pry three tabs that hold the air box cover. Once removed you can slide the old #filter out and replace it with new one. Then reassemble everything back together by following this tutorial in reversed order.
You should replace cabin air filter once a year as a part of regular maintenance service, best in spring. Additionally, you can use ozone generator to kill mold and remove unwanted smells in your Golf MK7.

Quick, simple, done in the time it takes for most vids to get through the intro. Thanks
Happy to help!
The dealership wanted 119.99 to replace this. I bought the filter for 19.99 plus tax.
Laughable isn’t it, got my filter for £9.50. Activated carbon too
Well thought.
Day time robbery by dealers.
Dealers smoke the finest crack tho
Gotta pay the bills and the techs some how goofy
Guys like you making videos like these make the world a better place.
Thanks champ. The tutorial super easy to follow.
LOL! Thanks for showing which way to press the three tabs on top. I thought they were connected to the rest of the car, not the air filter cover. So I was pushing them up! DOH!!!
It works soooo much better your way!
I still needed to put a butter-knife in one tab while I pressed on the other two tabs. The plastic tabs are super stiff and needed a lot of pressure.
Fine demo video. Just replaced my cabin filter. Easy efter watching your instruction. Thanks.
Thanks for this video. Dealer wanted $80 + tax to do this. I bought one for $12 and installed it in about 3 minutes.
Thank you for this!! just swapped it out and the old one was solid black and had a leaves in it. Fans push more air now :D
This great advice. Once you work out how to just push on the bottom tabs it does not need much pressure. I used a screwdriver as well. But before this getting the glovebox to drop down required a lot of pressure on the 2 tabs. I found that difficult. Then it needs another tug to get it to drop down all the way and the plastic slider drops out of its guide.
Great video, cheers from California 👍
Thanks a lot for sharing with us and saving quids !
Very helpful, thanks for posting.
Thanks heaps bro! I appreciate you!
Thanks, I did this twice before but forgot how to do it. The clips are terrible, I almost had to break them to get the glovebox to open. Then the gear that slows the opening popped out, but you just put it back in with the bigger gear facing the outide of the car
This happened to me too! The gear popped out and I panicked haha. Put it all back together and learned how the mechanism works in the process!
Thanks for sharing this, fixed mine in 5 minutes once I knew where it was 👍🏻✅✅✅
Happy to help!
Just changed my MK7 filter with 30.000km. Success!!
✌️
You should change it every year
Awesome video thanks for showing how to do this - £13 and an old black and dirty filter removed and my AC is now working great!
Happy to help!
thank you so much from korea.👍🏾
For the life of me I can't open the compartment so it'll drop down.
The two "buttons" (left and right) are very rigid and won't budge. Using all my strength and nothing. I even tried with a metal piece as leverage but still nothing.
Thanks air con improved straight after the replacement
Happy to help!
great video, thanks
Happy to help!
Can I ask which Bosch pollen filter you chose as a replacement?
Brilliant thanks
Thanks bro! The dealership was going to charge me $100 to change it for me!🙄
Top video thank you so much…
Happy to help!
Thank you
Hi, which air filter brand you recommend for GTI MK7 ?
Very good information, very good help, but how and where could we find a new filter ? Can't you give VW reference or link to shop please?
I'm going to replace mine tomorrow as my front windscreen is always misting up at night time,and none of the rest of the windys mist up just the front..plus there is a strange smell, im guessing my pollen filter is knackered and needs replaced ASAP
Thanks for sharing! ^_^
Happy to help!
thanks. I cannot read the PN of the BOSCH filter, can you please say which PN it is?
Thank's.
Thanks Men..
✌️
Thanks for the video . How do you reset the warning light on the dash?
I made separate video about resetting maintenance reminders in Mk7. Check it out.
@@mrfixpl doesn't appear to include pollen filter
@@barcobird There's no separate reminder for cabin filter in MK7. There's only oil and general inspection. I remember that BMWs had 7 or 8 separate ones for cabin filter, engine filter, DPF, oil, brake pads, brake fluid...
Can do video replace battery? Sorry my bad English.
THANK YOU
Welcome!
What happens when we smash the top slots that hold the three tabs of the cover
Push up or forward, dont get it to work and getting annoyed
Hi i push the clamps up butnthe glove box wont come down !?!?
Thanks
👍
Good!
It worked but gear peace fell off and don’t know how to get it back on
Hy,same hapend to me today.
This plastic gear peace put in part where large plastic taping in.
Ja się meczyłem w 2 letnim aucie z tymi plastikami,nie dalo sie ich wcisnąc a zeby schowaek wypadł w dol, co Ja sie napociłem. Auto 23tys przebiegu
Zobacz wymianę w Volvo V50. To jest dopiero gimnastyka!
ja bym węglowy zapodał
The service for this and an oil inspection is £385 from vw fuck that
Mine didn't open up that wide
That’s strange
Arrows were up on my car
From the factory or from the dealer?
What if I broke a clip?
@Recep G. I prefer bass
I pressed and broke one
😢
What did you do? Did you change the housing or tried to fix it back with epoxy or another glue
@1:10 press the tabs "which" way. Down or Up ?? The arrows point up.. Either way with much force I can get no movement on the tabs. I'm about to forcefully rip the door off and cover it with duct tape.
I figured out the issue.
Seems the 3 PUSH DOWN tabs don't stick out far enough beyond the housing itself WHICH ALSO HAS 3 plastic tabs in the exact same position sandwiched just above it so it looks like ONE combined tab. Whose the VW idiot engineer who tortured us with that? I was trying to push down the housing tabs which don't move. Since its dark in there and the tabs are tightly sandwiched together (looking like one tab), I had to use a thin bladed screwdriver to separate the tabs, starting from the left. The obvious tabs at the bottom of the panel act to allow the panel to swing down. Don't break them like I did trying to remove the door from the bottom. It really needs a redesign.
Great, ...only one comment: to put the stuff from the drawer on the dirty floor and then back ...is disgusting 🤮
