2010 Dodge Grand Caravan 3.8L SXT (apparently what I've learned in the comments, that this also applies to the SE version as well as many Chrysler Town and Country minivans). Happy watching!

I have a 2009 Dodge Grand Caravan sxt with exactly the same design. I was looking for the cabin filter went and could nit find it went to AutoZone they told me that it could be located somewhere left underneath the dashboard which I was not willing to open up your video helped out since you mentioned that these do not come with a cabin filter. The interesting part is that the manual that comes with the 2009 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT shows that there is an cabin filter underneath the dashboard behind the glove compartment. This is kind of strange that they would provide a manual showing that it has a cabin filter however it does not have a cabin filter behind the glove compartment. I will return this cabin filter back to AutoZone

My best reckonin' is it's some kinda counterweight contraption. Now, ain't this just peachy? Gotta mosey on over to KZbin and figure out how in tarnation to kick that stench to the curb.

@@zuzannamilewska9215 So, REGARDLESS of the trim, there either is, or isn’t a cabin filter. My guess is that it depended on which line it went through when the van was assembled at the factory. Kinda like checkout at the supermarket, anyone can go to any cashier. So the bottom line would be to remove the glove box and check before buying a replacement filter.

You’d have to know what type cabin filter you have. If you buy an upgraded one they can be cleaned. Cabin air filters come in cloth, carbon and paper. Paper filters should always be replaced, never cleaned. Some cloth and carbon filters are reusable and can stand up to a wash. Using a hose on low pressure, direct water from clean side to dirty, sweeping top to bottom.
