Replacing the cabin filter Hyundai Accent

The Hyundai Accent is equipped with various modern units and devices that are responsible for the normal operation of the vehicle. The Hyundai Accent cabin filter is replaced after several thousand kilometers.

During this time, it is recommended to remove the cabin filter to check whether it is dirty. Otherwise, accumulated dust will enter the interior. The filter installed in the cabin is a barrier between the clean air of the Hyundai and the dirty air from the street.

The importance of performing routine filter element replacements

Of course, all of the above advantages of cars equipped with a cabin filter will be lost if it becomes clogged, and this process, unfortunately, is inevitable. As mechanical particles settle in the pores of the cleaning element, its throughput will gradually deteriorate, and the shortage of air entering the cabin will affect the reduction in the efficiency of the climate system as a whole. The rate of filter contamination depends on many factors - road conditions, preferential operating conditions of the vehicle, driving style, driver discipline, etc.

Because of this, the replacement of the Hyundai Accent cabin filter recommended by the manufacturer can be carried out at a time that differs from that specified in the manual. This is especially true for the warm season, when the air is much more polluted than in winter. That is why many experts say that the optimal time to perform this operation is the beginning of spring. It is during this period that plants actively flower and release pollen, which is enemy number one for allergy sufferers. A clogged filter is capable of accumulating such allergens, and instead of having a protective function, it will become a threat to passengers belonging to this category of the population.

Untimely replacement of the Hyundai Accent cabin filter is fraught with other troubles - the appearance of unpleasant odors in the cabin, frequent fogging of the windows even in clear and dry weather, and a decrease in the efficiency of airflow from the deflectors when the fan, car air conditioner or heater is on. It is these symptoms that should serve as the main sign that it is time to solve the problem with a dirty filter element.

When driving a car on city roads, a large amount of air enters the cabin, and with it dust, exhaust gases and dirt. It is in order to always have clean air inside the car that car manufacturers have developed a cabin filter.

And like any mechanical element, the Hyundai Accent cabin filter has its own service life, after which it must be replaced.

Choice of SF Hyundai Accent

The first generation Accent, produced during 1999-2005, was equipped with a filter with article number 97617-1C000, which consisted of two rectangular filter elements that were placed one above the other. Each of them was equipped with its own frame, which was complemented by a handle that made it easier to pull the product out of the compartment. Since 2005, the Accent has been equipped with a regular single cabin filter (article 97133-1E100), albeit without a frame. For this reason, replacing the Accent Tagaz cabin filter is much easier, although the niche for the filter and the total dimensions of the single and dual cleaning elements are the same.

The double filter is generally a unique design solution. Forced, since it is extremely difficult to install a whole product on first-generation cars, but separately they become quite simple. One way or another, original cabin filters are rarely purchased today, preferring cheaper options from well-known manufacturers of similar products. In particular, for Hyundai Accent produced before 2005, the following products can be considered a good alternative:

Nevsky filter (article NF6159/2);
TSN (article 9.7-13);
Finnwhale (item AS738);
Kolbeschmidt (item 50013894).

For cars that came off the assembly line after 2005 (Tagaz assembly), the following filters will be suitable:

Nevsky filter (article NF6425);
Champion (item CCF0186);
TSN (article 9.7-547);
Finnwhale (item AS742).

Unfortunately, domestic dealers specializing in sales of Hyundai Accent often practice pre-sale preparation without installing a cabin filter on the car. Apparently, believing that this part can hardly be called in demand among drivers. About ten years ago, it really was a novelty, and car owners did not see the benefits of owning it, considering the troubles of replacing it burdensome. Today the situation has changed diametrically - no one wants to breathe dirty air with unpleasant odors, so configurations with a missing filter are becoming unpopular.

The place behind the glove compartment, where the cabin air filter is located on the Hyundai Accent, is standard for many brands and models of cars, so there are usually no problems with dismantling the old and installing a new product. As for the filter itself, some car enthusiasts prefer not to buy a finished part, but to make it themselves. As a rule, the quality of such a product is not much inferior to the factory one, but in terms of cost, this option is clearly preferable, especially if the owner of the car loves and knows how to do repairs without resorting to the help of professionals.

Self-production of SF for Hyundai Accent

Skeptics are convinced that any part made by hand will obviously be of little use for use in a car. Well, it’s hard to disagree with this opinion, since a modern vehicle is truly a high-tech and very complex product. But when it comes to the cabin filter, it is difficult to single out a part or assembly, the manufacture of which would require the possession of some extremely expensive equipment. Tools and materials needed to make a Hyundai Accent cabin filter:

scissors;
old filter element (two halves in the case of the first generation Hyundai Accent);
glue;
sharp knife;
ruler;
replacement filter used in domestic kitchen hoods.

A kitchen filter element can be purchased at any supermarket that has a household appliances department, and its cost is several times less than that of its automobile counterpart, while the total area allows the production of from two to six cabin filters. In principle, nothing prevents you from acquiring a carbon filter, which provides a qualitatively different air purification. Algorithm of actions for manufacturing SF for Hyundai Accent:

we take the old filter, use a knife to cut out the clogged filter element, leaving only the plastic rim (attempts to wash/clean the old filter, which is resorted to by particularly thrifty car owners, are obviously useless);
Having measured the dimensions of the internal space of the frame, we cut out a blank of suitable dimensions from a kitchen analogue;
glue the workpiece to the frame (if a two-layer material with activated carbon is installed, you need to read the instructions in what order the layers should be laid);
The filter housing has a cutout and a protrusion located on opposite sides, thanks to which the filter material is easily fixed in the frame. Since air blows from right to left in the central air duct, this point must be taken into account when laying the second layer;
We do exactly the same thing with the second half of the cabin filter;
The product will be ready only after the glue has dried (read the instructions carefully).

How to change the cabin filter on a Hyundai Accent

To gain access to the installation location of the filter element, it is necessary to remove the glove box. To do this, we take out and put aside all its contents, after which, without applying excessive force, we press on the side panels to disengage them. Since the walls of the glove compartment are quite flexible, you should be careful not to break the fragile plastic.

The vertical pillar, which becomes accessible after removing the glove box, is a cover that blocks access to the cabin filter, so it must be removed. To do this, move the flap used when turning on the recirculation mode to the side. Further actions must be performed without relying on vision: in the formed niche, by touch, we find the lever located directly above the SF cover, carefully pull it towards the passenger seat.

Since the lever is also quite fragile, and we do not visually control our actions, we also perform this operation very carefully, without excessive fanaticism. As soon as the fastening is released, remove the cover by pulling it up and opening access to the cabin filter.

We take it out, trying not to make sudden movements - a lot of dust and debris has accumulated on it, which can get into the air duct, which is extremely undesirable. If the filter consists of two halves, first remove the upper one, then the lower one. At the same time, we do not throw away the filter elements - they will come in handy if you want to make a new filter yourself (saving almost half the money). After the cabin filter on the Hyundai Accent is removed, you can begin installing a new one - it doesn’t matter whether you purchased it in a store or made it yourself. We perform all operations in reverse order. Installation of a two-component filter element requires that the recess on the frame wall should be located at the bottom and the protrusion at the top. Therefore, we first insert the lower half of the cabin filter, then the upper one.

Particular attention should be paid to installing the SF cover in its original place - if handled carelessly, it can easily be broken, which is the sin of inexperienced beginners. This is done in the following order: first we fix the lower lock, then we snap the upper one, without applying excessive force. If the top lock does not latch, there is no need to press harder - check whether the bottom lock is inserted correctly, this is usually where problems arise. Checking the correct installation of the cover is done as follows: carefully pull it towards the passenger compartment, applying force at the attachment point of the recirculation flap. If the top part of the cover does not move, you can proceed with the installation of the rod and the glove box, not forgetting that its sides are quite fragile.

Frequency of SF replacement

For beginners, it is not enough to know how to replace the cabin filter on a Hyundai Accent - this operation will have to be performed repeatedly. How often depends on the conditions in which the car is used. The recommended period is 100,000 kilometers, but this is if the car is not used often and its route does not pass through dusty and polluted areas. In a big city, it is impossible to avoid congestion, so in such conditions the filter will have to be changed twice as often, as when driving on country roads.

The cost of a finished cabin filter is from 300 to 800 rubles. The price of an analogue for kitchen hoods does not exceed 150 rubles, and its size is sufficient for the manufacture of several cabin filters, therefore, even if you are not inclined to engage in amateur activities, you should not throw away your used SF - who knows how circumstances will turn out in the future.
