I'd pull it out, slide it back in, pull it slide it back in, still wouldn't fit. Pulled it out again, just to make sure it was going in the right slot, still no go. Tried forcing it with it with one hand while guiding it in with the other. The mofo will not fit!! Shoulda known better than to force a charcoal filter into a white box.

If you were not using one of there, you are trying to stick a square peg in a round hole, my friend! Any of these will work. I used the charcoal CF10140 with no problem. Go to page one or two on this subject to make sure of your insertion orientation, ok? Good Luck! STP: CAF1766 Purolator: C35479 WIX: 24883 Fram: CF10157

DIY: Adding In-Cabin air filter to the 370Z
I used the Fram CF10157. It's not the same size as the oem, but I found if it is turned sideways you can cram it in there. Next year I'll try the STP model
On a side note, for those with the musty smell coming from the vents, try pouring a 20% solution of bleach and water down the windshield before you wash your car Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Ok, so just to be clear, when I said 'turn it sideways', that's 90*

Thank you for this DIY. Finally my allergies wont be going ape sh!t while im in my car. Additionally, I also used the Fram CF 10157 and i had to really cram it in there. It worked but im sure there is a filter that is better suited for our cars.

I'm not sure if anyone else has run into this, but I found the Purolator: C35479 at Advance Auto Parts and the thing was HUGE. It was like twice the size that it should have been. (didn't buy it BTW )
Anyone else run into this? |

Change 370Z Cabin Air Filter
I just did my 2012 370z coupe cabin filter and want to add a couple useful details: First, there are exactly 7 screws (and multiple clips that help align things). There are are 4 obvious screws across the top and 2 less obvious screws in the lower corners. The 7th screw is visible way back behind the tray on the upper right and is accessible either with a long Philips or, better yet, by working with the swing out glovebox to lift the 2 lower back hinges off their mates and angulating it so the "stops" clear out of their side holes. Second,the filter itself is behind a white cover door which opens by gently pulling on the latch on the right and sliding the hatch to the right so that a tab on the left side slides out of its slot. Remove the dirty filter and replace so "Nissan" is showing right side up, then slightly lift the filter as you close the hatch so that it remains elevated by the little angulated tabs on the bottom side of the hatch facing the filter. Pretty easy to reassemble all (helps if remove the retractor clip on the left of the tray and put all screws in then put it back on). It was a bit tricky to get the hinges to engage but seemed to help to get tray a little high then press down. Beats paying the dealer $80.
