I was reading my manual when I read that a reduction in the force of air from the AC vents can be the result of a dirty microfiler. I just bought two of them and cant find where they do. I've removed both lower dash panels and looked under the hood. Does anyone know how to replace them? Are they really on the TI? Was a over-looking something? I need some help guys, if its not the filters I have bigger problems. |  |  | | 07-17-2005, 12:57 PM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Greenville, SC Posts: 9,356 |

I would think that the micro filters work for any air coming into the car. Where they are located doesn't appear to be just for AC use. They are located under the hood grill just below the wipers. you should have this even if you dont have AC. | | | | | 07-31-2005, 08:37 AM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2005 Location: England, UK Posts: 1,288 |
