MINI Cooper Cabin Air Filter Replacement DIY (2007-2012 R56 MINI Cooper, Coopers, JCW)

►Musty or moldy-smelling air from your MINI Cooper's HVAC is likely caused by a cabin air filter that is long overdue for replacement. Filtering out contaminants from the air will cause leaves, dirt, and other debris to dirty up the filter. If left long enough, the damp bits of foliage trapped in the filter can get quite unpleasant.

Replacing the cabin air filter in an R56 MINI might be the most straightforward maintenance process within the vehicle. The filter sits under the glove box and will fall out after you undo a few clips. You may want to vacuum out its housing, but that's all this job will throw at you.

In this video, Mike Hidalgo, FCP Euro's Professional DIY'er, replaces the cabin air filter on an R56 MINI Cooper.
