Cabin Air Filter
Changed mine today after about 27,000 miles. It was FILTHY!
This was the 'clean' side.
That's all, just wanted to let you guys know those things get dirty FAST!

...I just pulled it out of the trash and solved that problem.
Inside the glove box, flip up three clamps, pull it out and slide the new one in. They retail for like $35-40, but I got mine off Amazon for like $15. Just search for the AC Delco Part #CF125.
Actually here is the link http://www.amazon.com/ACDelco-CF125-...2078305&sr=8-1
The MSRP is $30.82, CED wants $20.99 for it. Through Amazon it is like $15 after shipping.

all the cabin filter does is filter the re-circulated air in the cabin...keeps dust and smell out, and some would say it keeps you healthier...just a good thing to have.

I just cut up one of those allergenic top quality house air filters, cut it to the same size as the stock cabin air filter and put it in, I didn't lose much air flow from the recirc fan. I'd say its probably 85% of what it was before in terms of air output, but I'm happy with the dust reduction that will come from it, and my allergies will be better too.

Bumping this... just changed mine at 20000 miles. It was dirty! I'm thinking you should do this every 10000. If you guys havn't changed yours yet... you really should.
