All I know is that the salesman told me the car had one before I bought it. I don't see how this is any different than the car arriving with rims but no tires and then being told I have to pay extra to have them put on.

Your salesman flat out lied to you then, the 2009 never came with the filter installed. It was added to the 2010 models as a new feature, but the 2009 owners found the 2009 had the slot for the filter and are adding it themselves.

Yup, or he was just plain Uninformed (what a surprise!). Nothing in the literature, window sticker, or service book mentions this as being standard equipment like it is on the lowly Cube and other models....

It was really just stupid of Nissan to hold out on us 2009 owners.

Picked up my STP CAF1766 from AutoZone tonight. I'll be installing it this weekend.
Thanks for all the great info guys.

But the 2009 service manual does mention it being replaced, so is it too big of a stretch to assume that this means that at least one of the 2009 versions is supposed to come with it? Let's say for a moment that the service manual mentioned "Service turbocharger at 12 months"... it wouldn't be unreasonable to assume that this means Nissan put a turbocharger in one of the models, right?

Yup. We would have had to change the factory filter at some point anyways, so no big deal!

Having the HVAC air filtered is good and all, but I think it'd be really cool if there was some compartment in the bottom seat cushion that we could insert a charcoal filter into. Then I could fart with abandon and not have to deal with the aftermath so much. I mean, it's hard to drive safely when I have tears streaming from my eyes. (j/k)
