Not to be redundant, but:

All the ones listed earlier in this thread fit perfectly...

STP: CAF1766
Purolator: C35479
WIX: 24883
Fram: CF10157

This is a Lexus/Toyota equivalent P/N Toyota 87139-32010 (Same HVAC air handler used by Nissan)

Thanks for the part number AK, I ordered mine last night using the dealers online ordering. Just had an email from them today saying:
"These parts have been discontinued from Nissan. I have cancelled the order. Sorry for the inconvenience"

Hopefully you'll get yours.

For anyone who thinks this mod is a waste, here is a pic of the cabin air filter I took out of my girlfriend's Sentra. It was changed 25,000 miles ago.

kenchan · 06-11-2010, 04:43 PM

that looks like my intake filter.

hahaha

Nasty.... Nasty... Nasty.

So if her car had no filter, all of that crap would have been blown in to the interior of the car, or would have been stuck somewhere in the HVAC system.

Ran mine today in all modes with no issues. I bought the Napa charcoal filter.

I had problems because I used a Maxima filter, which is too big.

I couldnt find the CF10157 at Walmart. According to the book, 2004-2006 ES330 should use CF10132. I ended up getting that. While it does fit, it does end up to be a little bit long. I might order the 10157 online and see what the difference is.

The only one I could find locally it the STP and the fit is not 100% so I decided to order the OEM last weekend. Parts guy advised that it should be here Wednesday. Today I was advised that the order was canceled by Nissan. Parts guy states that he called Nissan to inquire and was advised that the order was canceled because the '09/'10 does not have the filter. I advised that I know the '09 does not but I thought the '10 did as it is in all of the literature. He states that Nissan advised him that the '10 does not have one either. Claims they decided not to include the filter after the literature was printed.

Who has a '10 that can verify there is no filter?

Just use this, buy through amazon. I have it in my car (09) and perfect fit:

Fram CF10157

I hate dealers more everyday. Just go to Napa and get a nice charcoal one for $20 or less. I have it installed in my 2009.

Thanks for the DIY caneman88 and g96818 + rep

Took me 10 minutes, easy install. Used Fram CF10157

JJ-NISMO · 02-11-2011, 03:37 PM

Bump, has anyone looked into getting an OEM filter now that the 2011 models are out?

Any consensus on what the best fitting charcoal filter is?
