Why cabin filter changes are vital?
Share:

At this time of year especially it is important to keep a vehicle interior free of uninvited guests. Pollen is one of the big challenges for many people in spring and an effective cabin filter is vital to protect allergy sufferers. However, modern cabin filters do so much more than just capturing pollen, meaning regular changes are even more vital. 


Bosch recommends to replace the cabin filter in passenger cars every 15,000 km or at least once a year. This provides a good opportunity to upgrade to a more advanced FILTER+pro.

These filters help protect vehicle occupants against viruses, bacteria, mould and allergens. They also feature an activated carbon layer to combat harmful and foul smelling gases, while an ultrafine microfiber layer protects against fine dust. 

Without an effective cabin filter vehicle interiors can present many problems;  
  • Little protection for allergy sufferers, something than can be dangerous if drivers have a bout of sneezing. 
  • Less comfort for passengers. 
  • A dangerous build up of mist on the windscreen. 
  • Increased driver fatigue. 
  • In-vehicle odours 
  • The possibility of bacteria entering the cabin. 
  • Poor functionality of the air conditioning system. 
Bosch offers a comprehensive range of cabin filters to suit all requirements and vehicles. These are available from Bosch stockists.
