chook Posted August 13, 2006 Author Share Posted August 13, 2006 sounds a bit harsh, normal carwash detergent in hot water for 10 min then use a hose to flush them, afterwards couldnt tell the clean side from the dirty side.

stasis Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 ok perhaps only with laundy detergent since its a fabric soaked probably for 1/2day. Chook just to check with you when you install back the filter the clean side is facing right on the vertical . Means facing the driver's side?

DaveB Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 My Factory AIR/NAV/TV system has a 'filter' symbol on the screen, shown during diagnostic mode, i assume this will appear when the air flow is slowed by the dirty filters. Sorry forgot to take photos. whoa... a diagnostic mode for the xanavi system? cool! can it do consult?

chook Posted February 9, 2008 Author Share Posted February 9, 2008 whoa... a diagnostic mode for the xanavi system? cool! can it do consult? There is a section in the STAGEA workshop manual for xanavi and consult system, although would probably display in japanese. Also appears to be a manual diagnostic which unlocks all sorts of hidden menu screens. The manual diagnostic mode for the air con system is activated by holding down the OFF button after turning on IGN power. Here are some pics for the curious, these are from an R34, but the instructions are the same for XANAVI and normal AC systems in Stageas. interesting the a diagram from the workshop manual displays 'air conditioner' in english, whereas mine is in Japanese, maybe it can be changed through CONSULT ??

Some good info... not sure if I'm gonna keep the Xanavi at this stage or not, since I can't read Japanese It does look cool though and has lots of functions, and I like the colour climate display. Looks like I've got a smoker's car; ash tray used a little (but not heavily) and cigar smell; gotta check that filter probably black Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/129786-air-con-filter/page/2/#findComment-3635778 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolverine Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 did mine today sticker in glove box said done 20 thousand ago but was still filthy all clean now you inspired me today mike, i got under there and pulled them out. one slight issue for me was the (aftermarket) speaker wire has been threaded through one of the plastic parts making it a bit a pain to get the clearance to pull the filters. otherwise a pretty easy job. just out curiosity, does anyone know if it possible to remove the heater cores on S2 stageas without removing the whole dash. it looks fairly accessible through the glove box. i have been putting off replacing my broken heater core in my R33 due the pain of getting to it.

zei20l Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 why would you wash the filter when you can buy a new one for under $40?? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/129786-air-con-filter/page/2/#findComment-4303747 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zei20l Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 ok here are the pics of the filter location for M35 (V35 too i guess) this is after removing the glovebox, i assume most people can manage that so i didnt photograph it. The first pic is the location of the filter. pretty easy. on the left is the clip that opens the door (pic 2) to remove the filter. when you put the new filter back in, be careful not to squash your filter. there are locator things that stick out of the door. the filter resides in the top half of the gap. my old filter was squashed and didnt filter too well, it was also black as shit. the 3rd pic is the part number of the filter. its very much available in australia. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/129786-air-con-filter/page/2/#findComment-4303749 Share on other sites More sharing options...
