The Toyota dealership tried to charge me $124 to change this filter!! I told them no not at this time. When I was leaving after they changed my oil, I noticed a humming noise coming from the vent so I went back inside to tell them. He said oh that must be a leaf or something in the way. A repairman came to my car and released the glove box just as you showed in this video, took out the filter and reached inside to get the stray leaf that was causing the noise. He then put everything back in place. I thought to me self "REALLY?? THAT was going to cost me $124??" So I went to an auto parts store and got a filter for about $12, watched this video, and did it myself. That is some ridiculous over charging right there! Thank you for the instructions, Adam! My 2011 Camry and I appreciate you very much!

It depends on the brand of the filter. Air flow is downward but some filters say "UP" instead of air flow and should point up. Why is this so difficult to get?

80 bucks for that? Seriously? That is why I have stopped taking my cars over the years to dealers because they charge you and arm and a leg(now some places let you bring in your own parts so you just pay for the labor,I have done that a few times) I just purchased a cabin filter for my 2011 Camry LE over on Amazon. You would think mechanics at large auto shops would be precise and to the point as the gentleman in this video is. I would love to do more minor work on my car but the apartment complex where I live does not allow for tenants to do most things,with the exception of small things like this of course. Camry is still running great almost 3 years into my car loan(granted,it only has 60,000 miles on it),and I am only on my second oil change. I only drive a total of 16 miles to work and back so that helps too :)
@AdamBedz2 жыл бұрын
I have a 2011 as well with almost 190k miles. The only thing I would do different next time is change the oil at 7500 miles instead of the 10,000 mile recommendation. I think 10k is a little too long even though its what they recommend.
