Just so ya'll know.. I just took out the cabin air filter out of my X to swap it after all the bad pollen we've had the past month. Anyways, the cabin air filter in new evo's are the EXACT same filter as most of the Nissan's take. I wasn't sure if anyone knew that or not. The reason that I was posting that on here is Nissan filters are usually very cheap. Here is pic of the and the new Nissan filter.



I just did a write-up too. It me about 2 minutes.

That's one filthy filter. I take it that's a 2 year old filter? or had it been replaced before..

. no about 15mon/14k miles. never replaced. recommended replacement time is about 15k miles i think. the stock filter is also a grey filter and the one I got is white. It was really dirty tho and had a bunch of pollen in it even tho I had shook it out before.

Thanks for the write up. Always easier when you have pictures to go by.

Can I have the part# for the one you got? I hate to order from the mitsu dealer, there's gotta be an AutoZone or Advance Auto equal right?

^^ Just go in to any part store and say you need a Cabin Air filter for a 2004 Nissan Maxima. Our number, (I own a Auto Parts Franchise), is CAF1792. The CAF1792 fits '02-'06 Altima's, '03-'08 Maxima's, the Murano's, the Sentra's, the G35's, etc. You get the picture. The Nissan filters at part stores is usually not right for newer Mitsu's anyway. The only we figured it out was because our Part # was wrong for a new Outlander. Our catalog is still wrong.

There's a bunch of OE numbers that Nissan uses. I show alot of them to be:

B7200, 5M000, 27277-4M400, and 999M1-VP001.

Again it might just be easier to say you have like a 04 Altima or something.

I changed the filter at 15K. The stock cabin filter is white - the dirty filter I pulled out was grey/black colored. Definitely replace these - they get nasty.

Good info, I work at Napa and it's almost $9 cheaper under my cost for a Wix filter. $10cabin filter isn't too bad

Purolator part #C35530 fits like a glove. About $13 at Advance Auto parts.

So easy & fast to replace I did it in the parking lot in less than 5 min. I couldn't believe how dirty the old one was after only 1 year.

The stock filter looks "grey" because it's charcoal impregnated.
