I was talking to a friend the other she was asking about the factory service procedures for her 07 Honda CRV. She was planning on taking it to the dealer and was quoted $99 for changing a micron filter. She asked me what a micron filter was. I told her I wasn’t sure but I had never heard of it so i would check it out for her.
A quick google search found it is a fancy name for a cabin air filter!!! 99 dollars for a cabin air filter. I hope it cures asthma for that price. I scrolled down and I found one for 12.70! Are you kidding me? The Honda Dealership was going to charge her almost 100 bucks to change a cabin air filter! I was appalled.
It not even a hard job to do! I looked up how to do it on Alldata and all you have to do is remove the glove box by squeezing the sides together and replacing the filter behind a door!
It just shows how you should do your research before getting that “micron filter” changed.
