On Star was kind enough to let me know it was time to change the in-cabin filter, and it was filthy. Only had the Tahoe for 9 months, couldn't imagine after multiple years.

15 minutes well spent IMO.

Probably one of the least known things to change. I didn't change the one on my 2002 in maybe 8 years. After seeing that it should be replaced, I bought the filter which came with 2 filters. My mechanic changed it and said, this two pack at has you covered for the next time and changed one filter. 3 years later I figured out there's actually two filters in there. It was damn near black.

You wont believe the crap I had to pull from people's blower motors. This is by far the worst one that I can remember.

Complaint. Customer states ac smells bad

My notes. Mouse merrygo round went into overdrive. Turned into mouse centrifuge.

It gutted what mice living in the blower from their mouths and ass.

Was it using the squirrel cage as an exercise wheel?

How can one tell if they have a cabin filter. My owners manual doesn't state either way.

I have an 08 Yukon Denali and I don't believe I have one. Please correct me if I'm wrong!
