walmart has a incabin air filter for 22-23 bucks. I was going to pick one up, but think I'll wait a few more months. It seemed better constructed than the accordion/shade style one.

After getting concerned that my A/C wasn't cooling well, I happened to remember the cabin filter later, well it was clogged up very badly. I removed and carefully vaccuumed it out well, almost like brand new. Now my A/C is like 2x cold ! Whooo!

So does that mean its always pulling outside air thru the A/C coils? Unless the recirc button is on? Or is there a mix going on?

If you have an O'Reillys nearby, they have them for 7.99.

There is constant air hitting the filter. I checked by driving around the block with no filter in and the glove box open. The faster you go the more air I felt coming through even with the fan off. So air is constantly hitting that filter.

What a rip off !! This is literally a 3 minute job. Even if the only tool you ever touched in your entire life was a screwdriver, you could still change this filter in under 5 minutes.
I recently got an advertisement in the mail from a local toyota dealer for their spring special and they advertised a cabin air filter replacement for $42! What a ripoff. That's why with the help of this forum and the members I've been doing all my own maintenance, to know it's done right and with care plus I save money too.

I took my glove box off and looked for the filter and I couldn't find it. I called Toyota and they said my model doesn't have one. Mine is a 2001. I suppose they wouldn't lie....
