How to: Change cabin air filter VW/Audi Golf, A3, Passat, TT, Tiguan, & Beetle

Simple DIY how to: Renew the cabin air filter in most late model VAG cars. The cabin filter is an oft-overlooked service item and replacing an old one will improve interior air quality.
The filter type may be found via VW part # 1K1819653B. Amazon links:
US: amzn.to/2mB8gGJ | UK: amzn.to/2ny7VWe
The filter and process is the same, barring mirror symmetry with LHD vs RHD vehicles, in many Volkswagens and Audis:
Golf Mk5 & Mk6
A3 Mk2, TT, Q3
Beetle
Passat
Tiguan
(Using the above Amazon links will help support my channel and is appreciated!)

Thank you so much Craig!
The service replaces pollen and air filters every year. And every year I see that the filters are as good as new filters.
I can check them out by myself hereafter.

One year in serbia arround 10000miles and it is black , half a year at most in my experience is good.

does it fit if you put it in the wrong way? I'm not sure if I did and it's easier for me to write this comment than to open it up again and check ;) thanks!

Well, the shape is keyed as you can see so it will only go in the one way. It's soft paper tho ultimately so you could jam it in the wrong way with enough force.

thanks buddy! I doubled checked it anyway and it was in the right way. Thanks for the vid and response!
