Does anyone know if the 2008/09 Focus come with a cabin air filter?
Thanks

If it does, I have not found one yet.

I believe they do not, I have never found a listing for one.

That's a negative on the cabin airfilter.

Thank you! If memory serves me well, the "old" Focus had the place for it but not the filter, so you only needed to buy the filter and put it in place. Would that be the same for the 2008/09?

I would think it's the same number pre>08.

My understanding is that the 08 doesn’t have the filter carrier anymore. It has just the lower hole with a wire mesh over it

Does any 1 know the part # for the cabin air filter for the 05-07 focus?

-It just goes over in place of the grile, right?

I don't want to revive an old thread like this, but...

I'm pretty sure the cabin air filter on the 08's and 09's is under the cowl panel grille beneath the wiperblades.

So does it have a filter or not?? I have found one, but unsure if they are just listing it under the 08 Focus or if it really is for the car.

Has anyone changed it and can confirm??

Officially, there is NO cabin filter. There is a filter of some sort, which I explained in my post above, but it's not meant to be changed easily. I will post a picture later.

If I understand my resources correctly, the 08-11 Focus has a "filter" under the cowl, but it isn't serviceable.

There's a thread here somewhere where a member modified the housing to utilize a replaceable filter. I'm not going to look for it.

It may not be easy, but I still want to know if I need to change it, I can't find it in the manual at all but I can't imagine a filter not needing replacement.

Thanks for your help

 

[mac.mogul]

Do you have a specific reason for wanting to tear apart the non-serviceable filter?

 

[D-Jack]

Not at all! I just wanted confirmation which thankfully you are giving me. It is not that unreasonable to assume that a filter needs to be changed.

Thanks again for your help!

Thank you!!!

No need to post pics now. It's exactly the same one as in the link Mac showed you. I forgot that thread existed. It was something I wanted to do at one point.

Thanks for your help!

Yes it is on the passenger side under the hood up by the windshield under the black cowl. although you can't find a video about it is the same as the 2007 I believe.
