Does anyone here know the cheapest place to get an air and cabin filter? I plan on replacing them in the car myself since the dealer charges $70 for a cabin filter and $40 for the air filter. Thanks in advanced guys and gals.

 

wow, nearly 70 views and not a response. no one knows?

 

Hond has it for $61 + $4 handling and free shipping

 

meant to say Hond

*guess the name is blocked or something.

I'm hoping to find out if HandA is carrying it or not.

 

Found the cabin filter for $61 (incl. shipping and handling) atSunnyside Acura

Do a search on the part no.: 80290-SEC-A01


Hope these help you in your search.

 

80290-SEC-A01 FILTER ASSY., AIR CONDITIONER

i think the correct part number for Cabin Pollen filter is

80292-SEC-A01 ELEMENT, FILTER

 

$10 on Ebay

 

wow those dealer prices are $$$.
I bought my air filter for less than $20 canadian at my acura dealership. I think the pollen filter is about $29.

 

For the air filter I'd just grab a K&N.

 

the cabin filter is only 20 + Shipping. Email one of the acura dealers selling oem tsx parts on ebay, they'll have it all. That's the price I got.

 

I am going to get from http://www.wixfilters.com/
based on Michael "the oil guy" Wan's recommendation

 

Schucks has two for 20 bucks

 

Honda Accord cabin filter is the same for the TSX. It's about $17.

Thats a ripoff for something I can get for 20 bucks

 

ehh... that's 2 of each item.

 

Yeah, 2 of each item. i am around 15K miles. I am going to replace both filters now and another set on 30K. Save on shipping. only $3.95 per order.

 

guys, click on that link ^^
does that one definately fit the tsx? i know it says it does, but can anyone confirm that the honda accord one is the same as the tsx one?

 

I bought mine from that seller and the fit was perfect.

The OEM at 28k miles

 

how do i put it in? something about disconnecting the glove box or something, i was l0oking at it earlier, i couldnt figure out how to drop the glove box down, and get to where the filter is

 

dam, that auction just ended, i hope that seller has some more

 

The owners manual explains how to replace the filter. You shouldn't need any tools to do this. Maybe a flathead screwdriver.

 

yea, i guess i should rtfm

 

You don't even need a screwdriver. All you need are 2 hands.

 

^explain

 

once you've done an initial cabin filter change, the tabs on the glove box aren't as tight. So you won't need any tools to get in there.

 

Why pay 70 bucks for something that you can get for 20 bucks?

 

Explain really?? Didn't need any tools. Just opened the glovebox (1 hand), released the telescopic damper on the right side (1 hand), pressed the sides of the glovebox in to release the glovebox tabs (2 hands), press the tabs on both sides of the filter tray (2 hands) and pull (1 hand).

 

k but i was pulling on the telescopic damper and it wasnt comming off.. maybe i need to give it a little more of a tug, idk.

 

Read carefully, $70 for four filters(2 pollen and 2 air filters)

 

 

For the telescopic damper, it is not pull. You have to push instead.

 

This link has pics for the 7G Accord. I think it is the same or very close for the TSX.

Speaking of which, I thought these filters was supposed to prevent stuff like the exhaust fumes of that diesel truck in front of you from getting in? I smell it clearly in my '06. Is this a malfunction or is it the way it is? I forget if I'm thinking of the right vehicle that had this.

thx

 

You need cabin filter with carbon layer which is not available in OEM form. Not sure if you can make one to fit inside.

 

I can buy 4 for 40 bucks, still 30 dollars cheaper

 

Where? Show me. I can get more. I want both OEM cabin and air filters.

 

did you buy $50 and 6 filters worth?

 

For the Canadians: I researched with a few Honda dealers and both Acura dealers in the area, and the price for both the Acura TSX 04-06 cabin air filter, and for the Honda Accord 03+ cabin air filter, was $33.16 + tax.

No difference in price, both labelled as Honda air filters.

So, whatever is closer (acura or honda dealer), get it from there.
