I have yet to change my in cabin filter and it's been over 2 years, and 33K on the odometer. It is recommended we change it yearly (or 20K ... I think ??)

Anyways, my dealership wanted $47.54 for just the filter; that price does not include installation. I thought Canadian Tire might carry it, but no brand of filters there had it for our Versa.

So I ordered some from the following site.

I ordered three filters, and one for my brother's SE-R and with shipping to Canada the total was $39.97!!!! Still cheaper than buying just ONE from my dealership!

She needs to get it to Canada which can pose a problem or raise the cost to her door astronomically.

Yep, but remember I ordered 3 of the Versa filters and 1 for the SE-R for under $40 ... That includes shipping. That equals out to about $10 each filter. Compare that to $47.54 here at my dealership for only 1 filter and I am getting a bargain

No, but it's the same as getting an engine filter from Canadian Tire by a different brand. These are not Nissan branded, but they fit. It will do the job. I would have purchased it at Canadian Tire; if they had it.

But the filter still sits in the slot and filters so it performs well.

Exactly. As long as it does the job that's all that matters.

Hopefully these will fit fine.

I don't know why our part stores here do not carry filters to fit our Versa's ...

Plus mine was black and filthy after only one year. Think of the crap your breathing in if you don't change it.

That's why I changed mine. I'd like to breathe in some clean air ...
We breathe in enough crap here in steel-town as it is.

Ya I got mine for around $10 with shipping to my door. I don't put that many kms on her, so one a year should suffice. Next summer I'll replace it again. I bought 3 so I have a couple extra at home.

I ordered mine from Logical Source.

It's truly idiotic that it's not accessible without taking off the glove box.

LOL!

It would have been nice to not have to remove the glove box. But at least it's not difficult to do, and eventually get to the filter.

When I changed the in cabin on my brother's Sentra it was a lot more difficult to change. You have to remove the plastic piece beside the gas pedal (the bottom of the centre console). After removing that you have to try and wiggle out a huge filter with the pedals right beside you. I had a hard time trying to pull the filter out with the pedals in the way. It is much easier to tear apart our Versa's. I'm glad I got it and not the Sentra.

Is there any reason not to use the NAPA brand filter? Several stores in my area offer the WIX filter or other brands as special orders (wait several days and pay shipping) but NAPA is the only store I've found that has them in stock in their local store. Thanks.

Only reason I went with the one I bought is because I couldn't find one here at any Canadian auto part store, and the dealership wanted a ridiculous amount for one.

That sucks that it broke. It was one of the easiest things to change on my own.

Thanks! I will be replacing mine shortly. Just gotta figure out how to avoid paying too much

You can buy the filters online from the site I listed above. Very cheap. Then simply change it at home, it's very easy. I was able to change mine and the SER (which was much more of a pain then the Versa) all by myself.

Changed the in cabin filter today at 47k. Changed it about one year ago.

Old on the left (top), new on the right (bottom). For some reason the pic is sideways, lol.

I removed mine. Made it easier to access, plus I had to remove the led's and reattach them. Took less than 10 minutes to remove the glove box, filter, put in new filter and reinstall glove box. It's easy.
