Odyssey A.C. Filter Changout?
I have a '00 Odyssey which has been zero trouble. Transmission has
been very good though we only have 60k miles on the van. Wondering about frequency of changing the filter on the air conditioning system. Has anyone done it? I'm told it's behind the glove compartment and requires a lot of plastic removal before getting to the filter. Ideas? Is it worth doing? I would appreciate an e.mail direct as soon as possible in addition to any posting you might do for others. <rcpej@webtv.net< thanks, Ron |

It's easy, but you need a couple of sockets in the 8-12 mm range, some small combination wrenches in the same range, and you can pick up the replacement filter ahead of time at Canadian Tire or maybe Napa. Phone around. Having the filter ahead of time will make the job go quickly. Blowing (or vacuuming) the inside out with an air hose might be good too (inside heater). Have a flashlight and long tweezers handy too, for yanking out the debris you'll find in there. 'Curly' ================= |

The frequency interval is in the manual, but it's considered a service item so the replacement procedure isn't in the owner's manual. |

Go to www.odyclub.com and do a search on the subject. There is plenty of
discussion. The procedure is not in the owners manual, it is in the service manual. It requires a little dexterity but can be accomplished by anyone with a little mechanical ability....

Guess again. The filter filters all air fed to the A/C -heater core. You will find out when it blocks up and the A/C core freezes up... |

That's not true. The filter is located directly in front of (literally laying against the face of) the AC core. It filters the recirculated air as well. |
