Introduction

This is a simple, easy-to-follow guide for replacing the cabin air filter in a 2017 Chevrolet Malibu.

The cabin air filter traps small particles, dust, and debris that could enter your vehicle’s A/C system. It’s recommended that you replace it every 15,000 miles (24,000 kilometers). However, if you notice a musty or unpleasant smell coming from your air vents, it may be a sign that your cabin air filter is dirty and needs to be replaced sooner.

When purchasing a replacement filter, make sure you buy the correct size and type that fits the 2017 Chevy Malibu.
