have a s430 2000 model would someone please tell me where to find the carbon filter inside this car.
thanks in advance

 

3 filters in all.
2 paper filters (side by side) behind the passenger glove box. Need to remove glove box. 4 screws then pull. Need to disconnect glove box interior light and lock.
1 active charcoal filter above the "closing panel" above the front passenger footwell.
Need to remove about 3 screws then pull the closing panel towards you and then downwards. Get on your back inside the footwell. Look upwards and unclip the filter cover plate slide locks. Active charcoal filter pulls out. Quite expensive to replace. Unless you are a smoker i would suggest that replacing it is not good value.

Autohaus Az has those filters for IIRC 1/3 the price of the dealer.

 

thank you for this great information, unfortunatley i do not have any info on the car because i bought it as a repo and it came without manuals and books, thanks for the patience.
