My friend took his jetta to a vw dealership for regular maintenence. All they this was an oil change and nothing else, no oil filter/ air filter change and they charged him 302$ 😂. 100 for the oil change and 170 in labour charges + taxes bringing it to 302😂. I said him the oil would have costed 60$ at walmart and I would have done it just for a popeyes sandwich 😂😂😂

Thx! It worked. Dealer quoted $103 to replace just the air cabin filter. Purchased filter for $28 and spent 4 minutes, total, to install it.

I ordered 2 engine air filters, 2 cabin filters, and 2 oil filters for my ‘14 Passat and ‘15 Jetta for $55 including sales tax and free shipping from FCP Euro.

Yes, dealerships just overcharge every time you take it in for service. My one friend was quoted $400 for an oil change, tire rotation and air filter change!

Auto Zone for the same items $100 plus sales tax and not shipped to your door.

$40 and 20 minutes, half of which was spent getting the cover back on for the in cabin filter, which just took a bit of patience. Great video, thank you!

Thank you, that cabin air filter was confusing until I saw this.

Awesome video! Stumbled upon your content looking for entry level mods. I have a new to me 2015 Passat I picked up a few months ago. Followed your video with a DNA Motoring high flow air filter that is similar, if not, exactly as K&N but for a lot less. After driving, I noticed the car has an improved throttle response!

Hi, Ur Video is Very helpful... I even saw ur Audi K&N filter replacement video over ther u said 50,000 kms recommended & company Filter 12000 kms... Could u please tell @ what kms for VW Passat 2017 replacement also for cabin filter... Thank you....

@DIYDetail

Hello! I recommend changing the engine filter every 12,000 miles (roughly 20,000 km). At this time, I would change the cabin air filter as well so it’s easy to remember

Urano grey gang

For THIS, best to wear a dust-mask -- what those masks were really made for. Prevent bronchitis or sinusitis or unnecessary asthma. Also BEFORE opening it, Why not put a cheep basic painter's drop-sheet/plastic sheet, or clean shower curtain, or a bed sheet that's easy to shake outside the car, and/or wash, in order to catch the debris that comes out? Sure beats spreading the dust & pollen & bugs, or needing to vacuum the carpet/upholstery etc...

When I tried to pull the hose out in the engine filter compartment, it is super tight/hard for me. Any knack to help with that?

@DIYDetail

2 жыл бұрын

Sorry for the delay! There should be some tightness but not hard. If it’s hard, the pipe might be bent. I would check that before using it again!

Thanks for the video. Amazon says the K&N engine filter doesn't fit a 2015 Passat. Any advise on that?

@DIYDetail

2 жыл бұрын

I would cross check it on K&N official webpage. Sometimes Amazon’s compatibility chart isn’t accurate or updated. As long as it’s compatible on K&Ns website, you can look for that part number on Amazon and you should be okay to use it www.knfilters.com/air-filters/volkswagen/passat/

If you’re referring to the engine air filter, it should be in the same location as shown in the video but if you’re referring to the exterior AC related vents, they can be found under the windshield wipers. Sorry if it doesn’t help as I’m not too familiar with this model

How can you tell if you need to replace it

@DIYDetail

3 жыл бұрын

It’s good practice to do so every year or 12,000 miles (if you don’t use the reusable ones). If you use the reusable ones, the same interval applies but you just need to clean the filters rather than change them
