im trying to find the location of the cabin air filter on my truck. It's non behind the glove box similar most, and online searching isn't much assistance. Exercise these trucks not have one? Am I just an idiot?
There isn't one on the first gen trucks.
Its non there. Your transmission is your friend for maintenance.
It would be cool if someone did a 'filter add together mod'. You game?

Haha. Skillful idea, just sounds like a ton of work. Not worth it to me.

I wish they did have filters. From my blower to my vents is full of crap, I bet if they had filters it wouldn't be that mode.
I read both of those options. Here is my natural self made air filter before I cleaned out the intake screen. A side view pic of the cowl removed.
I wonder if that 2nd selection guy put his filter on the proper intake hole?
Darkness and speedtre like this.
Snapped a picture of the intake port nether the cowl.
I'd reconsider and go with the TS option with the filter inside the cab.
Agreed, that's the one I meant to say I was probably going to do....

This is kind of funny. Took my 2000 Tundra to good ol' Toyota to get an oil change. First, information technology took them an 60 minutes and a half. Secondly, they tried to charge me $48. Told them I've been getting them done for 20 years at effectually $29. They said prices go upwards each year. I said, It's non synthetic, what does information technology have to do with me? Quickly searched Toyota Owners.com and found a coupon for an oil alter, boom 29.95 upwards to v quarts. So, roughly $38. better than $48, correct? Small-scale victory. And then the rep tried to tell me "it's 7 quarts". ME: "The 5VZ-Atomic number 26? No, actually, information technology's 5.6, merely we'll round up and get with half dozen." He and so checks his computer and confirms. Gee, Thanks for the confirmation.
Anyways, what brought me to this thread and why I had to post. Technician "Light-green OK'due south" all of the miscellaneous box checks he has to do with steering rack, body, brakes, tires, etc. EXCEPT: Under the hood Air Filter (Cherry X) and Cabin Air Filter (Red X).

I think in my head, I just checked the under the hood air filter last week, information technology's make new. Motel Air Filter? I didn't think I had one. Thanks Toyota. Now I gotta cheque the oil and tire pressure, make sure this guy did any work at all.

Yous are very smart Grasshopper. Though, in my tiny pea encephalon I always say "if I have to check backside yous then why the hell non just do it myself?"
My daughter'south boyfriend just put new tires on her Corolla. When she came by and stayed for a moment I checked the wheel lug nuts (140 lb-ft) and reset them to something that can actually be removed past hand and checked the tire force per unit area. 29 lbs in 2 of the tires.

Believe me when I say I tried hard to make a filter selection work, but its a difficult chore to brand something that is easily serviceable.

simply may be the simply option
Take some pics of your job if you decide to do information technology. Only problem I come across with that location, other than difficult serviceability, is that its on the positive side of the blower cycle. Most filters tend to be installed on the negative (pull) side.
