I own two Dodge Grand Caravans (2008 and 2015). Both have two glove boxes. The 2008 has no cabin air filter, but the 2015 does have a replaceable one behind the lower glove box.

I have a 2009 Dodge Grand Caravan sxt with exactly the same design. I was looking for the cabin filter went and could nit find it went to AutoZone they told me that it could be located somewhere left underneath the dashboard which I was not willing to open up your video helped out since you mentioned that these do not come with a cabin filter. The interesting part is that the manual that comes with the 2009 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT shows that there is an cabin filter underneath the dashboard behind the glove compartment. This is kind of strange that they would provide a manual showing that it has a cabin filter however it does not have a cabin filter behind the glove compartment. I will return this cabin filter back to AutoZone

You just saved me from cleaning out my glove box....thank you!!!!!

Yeah I sure like the idea of having one to do some filtration of cabin area. Between pollen and dust.

Well, dang it! My doggone mutt had a case of the runs, and now my dang van smells worse than a skunk in a barn. I reckon I had to double-check if I got that SXT thingamajig in there. Turns out I did, but I had to make darn sure anyway. And you're spot on, there ain't no filter to be found. Now, I'm scratching my head over that there string or spring thingamabob. My best reckonin' is it's some kinda counterweight contraption. Now, ain't this just peachy? Gotta mosey on over to KZread and figure out how in tarnation to kick that stench to the curb.

@@zuzannamilewska9215 So, REGARDLESS of the trim, there either is, or isn’t a cabin filter. My guess is that it depended on which line it went through when the van was assembled at the factory. Kinda like checkout at the supermarket, anyone can go to any cashier. So the bottom line would be to remove the glove box and check before buying a replacement filter.

Also the 2009 Dodge Caravan SE model is the same and doesn't have a in cabin air filter. The set up looks the same as what you showed on your video. 😅

The SE is the same as the SXT in terms of no air filter, just bought one to come to the same conclusion as the guy in video 😂

How do we clean it tho?

@marinedevildog

9 ай бұрын

You’d have to know what type cabin filter you have. If you buy an upgraded one they can be cleaned. Cabin air filters come in cloth, carbon and paper. Paper filters should always be replaced, never cleaned. Some cloth and carbon filters are reusable and can stand up to a wash. Using a hose on low pressure, direct water from clean side to dirty, sweeping top to bottom.
