    in cabin air filter

    Noticed for the 20K check over, that all the dealer does is an oil change and in-cabin filter change. Anyone know how to change this filter on the 997 turbo? Apparently the process is different form the 996.

    Re: in cabin air filter

    Here ya go. Will be a fun, non-threatening, puzzle for you to solve. Screwdriver and paying attention: next thing you know you're done.

    There's a chance those filters can be washed or blown or vacuumed and reused. If they fall apart with water you know they can't be washed. :


    Note: "1" is a partial cut-away view of the __cover__ (or "housing"), just find the whole thing in real life and remove it.

    Re: in cabin air filter

    appreciate the diagram, but it tells me little about process to get to the in-cabin filter. Have you done one of these yourself? Is the filter under the battery? Under #10 is washer fluid and infront of #10 in brake fluid.Between the windshield and #4 panel is nothing. Porsche has hidden the filter very well. Thought maybe in front of the battery, but there are no panels there.

    Re: in cabin air filter

    Here ya go. Location of the PF. Battery to right. My _bet_ is it lifts right up and out (slide to right?) and is held in place by a friction fit.

    I haven't done it but it, barring some BS snag which I DOUBT is there, it looks like a very easy DIY.


    BTW, housing is not a diagrammatic "cutaway" like I speculated, it actually looks like that; made of closed-cell foam (very flimsy/fragile).

    Thanks for the photo. Porsche has hid it well.

    Yeah. Took a while for us both to find it. Glad to help.

    Made me think, the Parts Catalogs which I used to research the question are intensionally crude. You'll notice the lines they're drawn with are "squiggly."

    Made me think (speculate) those SOBs don't want Parts Catalogs to allow "service manual" analyses conducted with them; they want to keep things as secret as possible. SM diagrams are extremely precise (non-squiggly). Geez! "What's wrong with people?!"


    Re: in cabin air filter

    apparently part of the 2 year service/reaming....filter was replaced for 85 bucks or so with that service...total cost $725.00, time rather than mileage based or at least thats how it worked for me with 4k miles
