Thanks for the post. Its indeed helpful. Good thing the Honda Pilot design engineer for this section wasnt around when I changed the filter. I couldve have decked him!!! Toyotas, BMWs and Subarus are WAY a lot easier.

[@filterheads]

+RD C Some filter changes can be difficult, glad you were able to make it through! Thanks for watching!

[@peted8478]

Great video! I was able to change the filter on a 2004 Pilot without removing the threshold panel, kick panel, & glove compartment. I removed the two stops & the plastic bar. Then removed the one screw & two bolts on the left side. Then on the right side removed only the screw and the bolt above it. No need to remove the bolt on the underside that attaches to the glove compartment. Just make sure to put something under the glove compartment so all of its weight is not hanging from the one bolt. I was able to swing the metal bar far enough down on the left side to clear the filter cover. First changeout in 18 years, filter was filthy. Took me longer to vacuum out the filter compartment than it took me to remove the filter. I duct-taped a straw to the vacuum nozzle. Most of the foam trim around the filter had disintegrated. Much easier doing it this way.

[@markh6413]

2007 Pilot - Glove box bottom screws are the tough part. Great video, my mechanic wanted 81 dollars to do the job. Even hassling the GB screws it was about a hour and a half. Thank you , I am now a customer.

[@filterheads]

You're welcome and I am happy to know you were able to do it yourself!

[@pmann16]

True say on the engineering aspect. But Honda must have listened. My new CRV cabin air filter takes about 2-3 minutes to swap out. With this video instruction, I was able to change air filters in my 2006 Acura MDX in about 15 minutes. And I suspect it will take me even less time the next go round. Excellent video. Saved 150 bucks, minus the cost of the filter and my time, so it is well worth doing yourself.

I just did this for my 2006 Honda Pilot. I did it a bit different however. Previously for my 2005 Honda Pilot, I followed all these steps mentioned. This time a did a couple steps out of order or entirely different to see if I had less headache. The biggest difference was I didn't remove the underside screw from the right side. I always had trouble with that in the past-both getting it off and getting it back on. This is how I did it. 1) Removed stoppers, floor cover and side cover. 2) Removed the 2 sets of screws for the metal plate (facing towards you) from both sides of the glove box. Needed Phillips and socket screwdriver. *Note by removing them the plate would not come out without the large underside screw, but it made it easy to maneuver the plate. 3) Removed the left (towards driver) screw only from the underside of the glove box. *I laid a handheld mirror and used a flashlight to access it easier. Therefore, the glove box was still attached on the right side but fully unhooked towards the left. It was down far enough I could access the filter cover latch. 4) Slid the metal plate down far enough to remove the filter cover. Just pushed it down gently. 5) Kept the metal plate pushed down far enough to pull the old filter out. 6) Put the new filter in and replaced the cover. 7) Slid the metal back back into place. 8) Replaced the drivers side screw under the glove box on the left side. 9) Replaced both sets of screws for the metal plate. 10) Replaced the stoppers.

[@realtorlisecolorado]

Thank you! This was much easier than I thought - just would add that the nut size is 8mm - would save a little time. I had to use a ratchet set.

This was the best video by FAR of any repair video I have seen on You Tube. The steps were clear and the lighting and sound and camera angles made each step come alive as if you were right there. I will subscribe and see if my issue...which is how to test or troubleshoot Honda Pilot 2007 Fan problems....there are TWO fans in these models.... so far I have not found a video or explanation with easy diagrams to see what is causing the fans not to work. I would pay a monthly fee to a company that produced top quality videos on troubleshooting like this one. Thanks.

[@filterheads]

Thank you for the kind words! At this time we only have installation videos for cabin and engine air filters. I will look into the problem you are having with the fans and get back to you if I find a good answer to why the fan is not working in your 2007 Honda Pilot.

[@filterheads]

[@milovannucci2405]

Thanks. I'll look at it soon

[@robotecarom]

This was very helpful. I can't imagine why Honda did not make this filter more accessible in the 2005 model.

[@estebanleacho9315]

+Sporty Classic believe me the dealer doesnt want to do this on a quick lube situation where they have less than 30 min to change your oil and do an inspection as well. This is one i bet most let go dirty and dont even mention its there.

On my 2006 Honda Pilot, I was stumped a bit because on the bottom of the globe box it wasn't 2 Philip head screws, I had to figure they were 8mm ones which you need a socket wrench. There's not much room at all even to bend down and even look what type of screws they were at first because the front passenger seat doesn't move too far back. You kind of have to put your hands under and feel the screws to line up with the hole while loosening and tightening to do this job. Other stuff is easy, even cutting the plastic bar. Thanks for the video.

I was not aware of this filter. I serviced my pilot @ 24K, 48K, 72K & 96K, I reviewed all the invoices and no where does it say they ever changed this filter. I followed your video, when I opened it all up, it was obvious someone had changed this before. I dug deep into the handbook and there is a 1-page blurb about a pollen filter which I should have serviced. I am at 135K now and your video was easy to follow. THANKS...;-)

[@filterheads]

Thank you for watching!

[@HawkeyeHammy]

Video was perfect step by step directions. Took me about 20 minutes to remove(mine didnt need cutting) and less to reassemble. Next time will be even less time. Just saved me $100 by doing it myself. Thanks

Awesome video. I've asked for my cabin air filter to be replaced at shops many times and decide to do it myself this time. I noticed the proliferated plastic was still intact meaning it's never been done before!!!! I couldn't believe it, you just can't trust alot of these shops. Thank you for the video, very easy to follow with great step by step.

[@filterheads]

You're welcome! Glad you changed it before it got worse!

Glad we could help! Thanks for watching!

[@rwmoreno]

Thanks for the video. Have had my Pilot for 8 years and did not know the filter was even there. Needless to say, mine was filthy. My only comment is that it is hard to fit the screwdriver in strait in the screw holding the glove box on the right side. I found it much easier to remove the screw using a socket wrench instead on a screwdriver.

[@filterheads]

Thank you for watching!

[@msconnie0334]

This is a great video, it only took me a few minutes to do. My biggest obsticle was the screws were very tight since this had never been done before. My filter was filty, my air vents have smelled musty for years now. My 07 Pilot is at 67K, I should have done this long before now. Easy for a anyone to do, as a women I found this video exactly what I needed to get this done cheaply and quickly.

[@filterheads]

Thank you for watching!

[@glennwood9928]

I did this but saved some steps. Instead of taking out all the screws and 8mm bolts mentioned (after removing the glove compartment stops), I just took out the left side screws for the bar and glove box hinge. That enabled me to carefully swing down the still right-side-attached glove box and metal bar enough to get the filter cover off and filter out. Much quicker!Might be able to save even more steps if I don't have to remove the door trim and sill. I'll try that next time

[@filterheads]

Thank you for the information!

[@Akhenatonio]

While it is possible to use a Philips head screwdriver, for the two screws holding the glove box, you would be insane to do so. Yes, use a 5/16 inch socket wrench to save your sanity. Took me about an hour to do the job, 40 minutes attributed to figuring out the screw conundrum. Thanks for the motivational video anyway. I would not have attempted it without it. Oh, and my old filter was packed full of crud. A vacuum to suck out the rest came in handy.

[@filterheads]

Thank you for informing us!

[@Naolslager]

The two hinge screws were infuriating. Turned the project into a three hour event.

[@chowgirl]

THANK YOU soooo much! 2004 Pilot EX-L we had leaves in the A/C blower + filter. EXCELLENT instructions!

[@filterheads]

Thank you for watching!

[@Naolslager]

me too! Full of leaves. I think they must be OEM!

[@tb0nestk]

What numbskull engineer would design something to be inaccessible like this? And how did they let this roll off the assembly line? Did they expect this filter would last for the life of the car and never to be replaced?

[@resacarat]

The design ensures a certain number of customers will require service from the Honda dealerships.

[@colbalt95]

One that's being influenced by the shareholders

[@denkeylee]

My IQ is 160 and I am smart. I have a degree from an elite college I designed this functional turd-bowl. This is what you get folks!

[@Naolslager]

I spent 3 hours this past weekend on what should have been 15 minute project. I was not happy.

[@howierides]

Hopefully, the Honda engineer that designed it has been fired. Putting this glove box back on was almost impossible.

thank you FilterHead for such informative video, I changed my 2006 Pilot cabin filter just as your 2003 video shows, I agree that try using a nut driver instead of a screwdriver to remove the glove box. That is actually the difficult part of the whole process. Once that is done, cut out the plastic bar and install the new filter is an easy task. I purchased the filter from AutoZone, STP brand costs me $23.75 including taxes. Much cheaper than the dealer asks for $127 plus taxes. Thanks!! tkc

Great video. Struggled big time to unscrew the right side of glove compartment. The fuse box and wires will get in your way on my 2003 pilot.

[@filterheads]

Thank you for informing us!

[@Naolslager]

Yep. The wire is perfectly located isn't it?

[@camel9]

Again the same way you guys helped me a few weeks ago with my 2012 Fiesta, you did it again with my friend's 2008 Pilot. More accurate, impossible! Keep up the good work! As a side note, the Pilot might have been one of their first models with the cabin air filter due to that missap of plastic bar that you have to cut to access it.

[@filterheads]

Thank you for informing us!

[@filterheads]

Yes. This procedure should be the same on the 2008 Honda Pilot. It also takes the same filter mentioned here, our AQ1054.

[@stettan1754]

Carwashninja hit the nail on the head. Cut out trim? Blind screws? Swap these out in a Pontiac Vibe: 3 minutes, tops. This is ridiculous. Thanks for the video - could never have figured this one out with out it.

[@filterheads]

Thank you for watching!

[@filterheads]

Yeah, Honda made it a lot easier to install their cabin filters now. The 2011 Pilot actually takes the AQ1058 filter, so if anyone wants to see a video of the new installation procedure you can search for "AQ1058" on KZbin.

If your pulling the filter, you should also pull and dump out the squirrel cage fan. If leaves and debris are getting to the filter, they are also likely to be filling the fan.

[@filterheads]

Thank you for informing us!

[@rod1961m]

Thank you very much for a well done video. I found this extremely helpful and informative and it made my job so much easier. For those wondering about the plastic bar, it is there to support the dash board during assembly.

[@filterheads]

Thank you for watching!

[@filterheads]

You're welcome! We are glad our video could help you save some money.

[@filterheads]

@fatihkaymakci - The official Honda service procedure is to cut that bar out on the first change. However, it is possible to dismantle the entire dash assembly to avoid cutting it out. Taking the dash apart is a very lengthy process. So my guess is that the plastic bar in yours has already been cut out.

[@tkchan1822]

wow, that is a good price, can't beat that no delivery charge deal, I will order my Pilot's air filter, VTM-4 fluid plus washer for drain and fill hole from your web site now! thanks again for the good advice! tkc

SOMEONE AT HONDA SHOULD BE BEAT WITH A LARGE STICK FOR THIS DESIGN! totally designed so that the average Joe would have to pay someone to install this for another $40.

What a pain in the ass! Especially for a service part. If I had my way, every automotive design engineer would have to spend two years in a mechanic apprentice position before they'd be allowed to design cars.

[@filterheads]

I agree!

[@tat838805]

the plastic bar is there for shipping and assembly line purposes... if you ever remove one of these things... you will see just how massive the dash really is.. and when its out of the vehicle, unsupported, it is very flexy and wobbly... the plastic bar is simply there to make it stiffer when installing at the assembly plant... thats all..

[@EddieHaskelll]

This is an excellent how-to video... much appreciated. However, Honda wants us to do this every 10,000 miles? Are they nuts? Why would they design this to be such a complicated chore instead of having an easily accessible filter mounting case>

A dirty cabin air filter will not cause a difference in hot and cold in your car. A dirty cabin air filter can effect your airflow and put off a unpleasant smell.

Great vid, FilterHeads, but what a pain in the ass to swap out a cabin filter. As solid a vehicle that a Honda is, this has got to be the most entailed process to replace a filter. Could Honda have made it more difficult? Check out how simple it is to replace a BMW, Toyota, or Lexus cabin filter.

[@zachmusic4511]

It was such a jar coming from the our 15 Sonata. Those designers made those cars for the techs to be time efficient for sure! The engine air filter in particular is a great design.

[@sicomprende]

@kaliaisgay No way you can get the filter out of an '06 Pilot using the method you suggest kalia. The glove box is still in the way. Even if you did just remove one hinge screw from the glove box, it would put too much stress on the other hinge if you try to tilt the glove box to get at the condenser box. The method proposed by Filterheads is actually pretty easy.

[@tfharper]

The Pilot was created by taking an Acura MDX and 'dumbing it down' to make a Honda SUV. But it inherited a lot of the maintenance mysteries stuffed into most similar luxury vehicles like Acura, Lexus and Infiniti, which is to say they make it a PITA to DIY so you'll take it to the dealer and pay them $500 for service.

[@damanuluv]

MY two front a/c vents( under the cd player) dont blow out air... but the air vents on the side by the windows do!.... could this be because of the air filter?

[@filterheads]

@damanuluv - no, it's most likely to be a broken linkage or control mechanism that directs the air to the different outlets. A clogged filter would limit the airflow to all vents.

[@solomontuke2597]

I found this vid because I wanted a reality check for the $98 quote my mechanic gave me to do this. Seems like a pretty reasonable fix I could do. What do you guys think of that quote? That seems a bit over-priced for this procedure if filterheads replacement filter is less than $20. Also, does anyone have a recommendation on an upgraded filter? I don't mind paying a few extra bucks to know I'm not sucking exhaust from other cars. What is the quality level of the official OEM filter replacement?

[@filterheads]

The quote from you mechanic seems high for this cabin air filter change. Our cabin air filters match the OEM filters quality. Thank you for watching!

[@solomontuke2597]

Filterheads Thx. Do you have another better recommended filter, or do you prefer the OEM?

[@filterheads]

I recommend the filters that we sell on our site because we have tested them to match the OEM and our filter is the one installed in the video above.

[@solomontuke2597]

Never mind. I was trying to ask if you have and recommend HEPA or carbon-filled, etc. I see now that you only sell one type, which explains your response. Thanks for the video.

[@filterheads]

Yes a carbon filter will help more with the air quality in your car. You're welcome!

Does anyone have advice if my screws for taking off the glove box are stripped? I tried metric and SAE sockets no luck, the size is odd just under 8mm. I am a little shy to drill it out, should I just do that? Any suggestion?

Poor design, a maintenance issue made for the dealer, not many people could do this.

[@johnnyweaver3896]

duby55 if someone cant take a few screws out and put them back in. We as a society are doomed..

Idk but I will hate to cut into it. I bet there's a way to bend the filter and get it in there. Its just paper.

[@filterheads]

If yours did not come with the option I would goto a dealer to cut into it the first time.
