Thanks, just followed your instructions today here in Kyoto, Japan and it worked a treat. Your clear camera work helped a lot.

Excellent. Good quality,with all details.Bravo!

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

Thank you !

In my K12 modal(2008), the glove box has electric cables mounted in left side as well. you have to use some pillar and flat screwdriver to push it out. If you got some resistance when try pull out the glovebox. Don’t forgot to check!

This is quite possibly the most stupidly designed air box in the history of the automobile! What should take 2 minutes takes half an hour and I've done it a couple of times now.

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

Yeah it's a pretty bad design alright !

[@fallofdutee]

Well, nissan was taken over by Renault and this isn't easy especially if the glove box doesn't come out due to a fixed cable on the lhs behind the glove box. However if you want to see a stupid design try and replace the pollen filter on a mk3 scenic! You have to remove the clutch pedal! The French have no idea. The mk2 scenic was a 10 second job, lift bonnet take off cover out with old in with new

Thanks mate👍

Hello. I use kutchen aspirator filter to put infront of this filter on my car. that way i get double protection and make my expensive filter live longer.

[@ca2269]

I worked at a mechanics shop for a year and a half, doing odd jobs, helping with servicing vehicles, cleaning engine parts etc and NOT ONCE was a cabin filter ever mentioned, ordered or touched. I had no idea....

[@brendanriley5543]

And if they do it, they'll overcharge you for it. Left my car in for svc this week. Got a call during the day; " Your cabin filter needs changing".... 'How much' ... " 75euro" 'Leave it'..... Don't know how he decided it needed changing. Plus the car only has 19000Km on it

[@PoopyStevens]

Excellent video

Changed the filter today. The video helped a lot.😉👍

[@mattgoldsmith9180]

Very cool, just done all of it to find out it doesn’t have a pollen filter😂😂💪🏽

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

Really ?, was the filter missing or was there no place for it at all ?.

[@christopherfahy6662]

I did same, no place for it?

[@adventure4life873]

Have you got a video on how to get ac to work again, I’ve tried to refill but goes to over pressure so may be something wrong with the whole system

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

I don't do any work with AC systems, sorry.

[@adventure4life873]

@@screwsnutsandbolts thank you for your help anyways pal!!! Have a lovely day

[@andrejpalic]

I removed the filter and drove to town to get a replacement while still running the blower motor. On return home it stopped working. While I suspect a resistor going bad, is there any possible sensor detecting pollen filter removal?

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

Not that I know of ?. Does it work at any fan setting ?

[@andrejpalic]

@@screwsnutsandbolts It ran at any setting after trying it a couple hours later, but only for like 20 minutes, nothing since. But after going through the automatic air condition manual I realized there might not even be a resistor since ctrl + f seems not to find it unlike for manual. Thank you anyway, your channel has been great source of help ever since I bought my micra.

[@drstrangelove4998]

Good video, thanks! But what an unbelievable palaver, just to change a cabin filter 😡

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

Thanks. It is possible to reach underneath the glove compartment once you know what you have to do, but it's not easy

[@The_Hunter_9515]

I did the same thing but it doesn't come out like it's solid 1 piece of plastic

[@DJ-Lee_S]

Does this improve airflow? When I have my AC on full there’s not much breeze at all will it improve it?

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

If it's very dirty then changing it should improve the airflow

[@DJ-Lee_S]

@@screwsnutsandbolts thanks, I took it out yesterday and it was very filthy but it somehow had breadcrumbs in it 🤣🤣🤣

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

Breadcrumbs lol ?, were you feeding it ? :)

[@DJ-Lee_S]

@@screwsnutsandbolts haha no i think the previous owner was though lol, my bloody boot switch just failed on me today aswell as I have a 1500w ported subwoofer in the boot and i got a bit carried away 😂😂

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

lol 😁

[@jorgan2028]

Hi I have a k12 S, the area where the filter goes in yours, is not the same in mine. It is solid same colour as the rest of the plastic and it looks the same on the drivers side, any ideas where else the filter may be on the model 2006, S petrol, 1.2??

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

I've only ever seen it like the K12 in this video to be honest.

[@jorgan2028]

@@screwsnutsandbolts It looks like if the car doesn't have an AC then there is no filter in place. I have found other with the same experience. Thanks for your response

[@ismailsewilam9572]

I have a problem in ac Nissan micra the compressor not working I have a light ac but the compressor doesn’t work can you explain why ?

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

The system could be low on coolant. That can cause the compressor to be shut off, even if it's showing the light on.

[@ismailsewilam9572]

@@screwsnutsandbolts so I have to check charge . Thanks

[@ArlindAutos]

I tried to change the filter my self but unfortunately there was no filter was plastic black box sealed I couldn’t take out this box so to try to put the filter inside any help for that please?or maybe is manufactured the filter inside my car is Nissan micra S 1.2 2004

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

I don't know, sorry. The manual only shows it like in this video.

[@rstmg60]

This filter is only fitted to cars with air conditioning so if your car doesn’t have AC you won’t have this filter.

[@raihanmohammedjahirmiah1101]

ohhhhh man i was so confused thanks for your comment

[@geoffhudson5017]

Wife has manual Micra 1.2S 2005. As usual, the Haynes Manual gets it wrong. No mention of aircon only. Have drilled around the plastic end plate in the filter box, removed it, cleaned up the edges and fitted the filter. An afternoons work but only needed to do it once.

[@artur_ku]

You can change it without these steps, just use youre longest hand

[@davodrums]

Wow, what a bad design. Just did our other car and it was simply a matter of flipping down the glovebox, and it’s right there behind a sliding panel. Anyway, thanks for the video, looks like this will take a bit longer.

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

Thanks, I did it by the book in this video to show clearly what you need to do. However, you may be able to remove it by just reaching under the glovebox and without removing it, now that you know what you have to do.

[@stevegrace2134]

Wrong Wrong and Wrong. Leave the glovebox alone. We change Cabin filters all the time. Fiddly but not complicated.

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

Wrong ?. The instructions are direct from the Nissan workshop manual. The video isn't for people who have changed cabin filters all the time. It's to show people who've never done it before how to do it and show them clearly what they have to do.

[@kinggeneral2760]

Excellent as allways. The correct way unless you crunch up the filter and force it in without moving the glove box.

[@kaiwenwu1947]

Hi do all k12 have this ?? Cheers

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

According to the manual it's in all Micra K12s
