BoschR2543 Activated Carbon Cabin Filter, Replacement Filter - Against Unpleasant Smells, Pollen and Dust for Cleaner Air Inside the Vehicle

I had an awful smell come out my car air vents whenever I would put my air conditioning on. It would settle in your clothes so when it was boiling hot I had the option of either cooking in the heat despite windows being down or turn the AC on but have to deal with the smell. It might sound like a no-brainer but when I say extremely pungent smell I mean it. It took me a while to figure out the problem but once I did I bought one of these. Firstly anyone can replace this (don’t take it to the mechanic, do it yourself), Just use a soft -touch or you’ll break the little tabs (you’ll understand when you replace it). Secondly smell gone, immediately after. I can’t say much about filter quality as it was my first time replacing it but it fit perfect, it worked immediately, air quality went from 0 to 100 immediately when using AC after replacement. I will 100% be buying again.

Fitted easily in our 2013 VW Golf 1.4 tsi, the air flow is definitely better than the old one.

Great product and much cheaper than the main stealers wanted

Quality filter from a trusted brand. These cabin filters seem to be generally expensive or maybe it’s just that they look fairly non descript for the money. I changed my old one and I now understand that they do serve a very useful function judging by the amount of crud that had been trapped by mine.

Your local garage will charge you 5 times the price of this to replace your air cabin filter. It literally took 20 seconds to replace the old one with this.

Found this to be a direct fit for A3 2016/17 1.4 tfsiOr at least for our car.Easy to fit, adequately priced and for those who never fitted one the included instructions are easy to follow.Nice clean cabin air after installation.Doesn't improve any failure of AC that would require a Garage visit.Will buy again when needed.

Perfect fit for MK7.5 Golf GT. The old cabin filter was dirty so I threw it out, only to find I couldn't source one locally the same day. Headed to Amazon, this arrived next day, very easy to install. I found the air flow in the vehicle to be better.Only struggle I had was dropping the glove box, those little tabs you need to pull to release the glove box are very stiff, did take me a couple minutes. Then just disconnect the hinge from the side of the glove box and it drops right down. Easy enough to remove the filter door, pull the old one out, pop the new one in and put the door back on. Putting the glove box back in was a lot easier.Overall, very good quality, pretty happy with it!I'm guessing all Golf MK7 and MK7.5's will be the same, but just to be specific vehicle in question here was the 2019 7.5 GT 2.0TDI DSG

My Golf "R" was suffering from an oily smell in the cabin which was unpleasant on longer journeys. The local VW specialist investigated and replaced a breather assembly that is known to cause this issue, but some odour remained.Bought one of these, fitted in in two minutes, and hey presto - no more oily smell.
