Holy crap.
I have been driving myself crazy trying to figure out how to change my filter and it never occurred to me that I just don’t have one….
Will be ordering this kit.
Thank you!
This is one of the most useful videos I've ever seen on UA-cam. Thanks!!!
That's so crazy! In seven years, my husband said he's never changed his 2015 Ram Lonestar cabin filter. I got him one from AutoZone, and low and behold ... was told it didn't have one! Thanks for the great video ... sorry you cut your hand.
Thanks my wife and I have a Ram 1500 and I didn't know we could do that. Just went out and looked behind the glove compartment and it looks like I'll be able to do this my self. Thanks once again.
Thanks for your informative video. I didn't realize that I don't have a cabin filter on my 2015 Ram 1500. The dealership was going to charge me $78.88 before tax to "replace" it. I've never had a cabin filter on any of my vehicles and am going to opt out of installing one since it never had one to begin with.
Perfect. Just took 30 minutes to do this myself.
Between this and another vid, it’s done. Thanks man!! What a pain for a big dude like myself. 🤣
Thank you for this video, I went to go and put a cabin filter and I noticed just like yours sealed up, I did not know there was a kit, of which I just ordered it was a little more then I wanted to spend but its one time, next time I just need a filter, Thanks again for your instructional video it helped immensely .
Thanks Man! Very helpful...I work on my son's '12 Ram 1500. Next is to remove / tighten Exhaust Manifold bolts to minimize the "ticking" sound from engine.
Run 5w30 oil, ticking goes away
I didn't even know that RAM 1500 came with a cabin filter or how to add one ... thank you Sergio, going to check my 06 Mega Cab out tomorrow and see what I've got !!!!!!! You da man, Sergio !!!!!
Thank you for this! My mechanic did tell me that RAMs didn't have cabin filters but I guess he didn't know about this. I'll pass it on. Thanks again 👍👍
I'll be ordering mine today 😁
Great video man and thank you!!! I didn't know that my Ram didn't have a cabin air filter. I was looking for videos to change the filter and when I saw your setup, it looks just like mine. I will definitely order the kit!!!!! Thanks again!!!
tnk u very much. thats whats a great help
thanks for the heads up just bought a Ram 2009 going to check and see if I have one. please post more on your ram.
If that's your Ram, it looks awesome! I just picked up my 2009 Ram Crew Cab Big Horn. I love it, & will continue to buy them after this one!
I got myself a 2013 Ram 1500 and I went out and bought an air filter expecting to change it.. boy, was I wrong lmao.
Thanks for the video brother. I know for a fact that my 2016 Ram does not have the filter. So I will be doing this install really soon. Good idea on using the Odor Eliminator spay.
Thanks...I was questioned there for a bit
But after I seen ur vlog...it was easy peezy 😮
Gee wiz, I owned cars for decades before cabin air fiters became a thing and never suffered any negative consequences. My early '16 doesn't have the filter, and I'm not going to do this mod. Might be helpful to some people, such as if they are sensitive to dust and pollen, perhaps, so more power to them doing this. Ram sure cheaped out on their vehicles. Having the capability to have the filter in place while saving very little by not having it is a head scratcher.
Glad I watched this video. Now I know why I wasn’t able to find my filter. It didn’t have one!!
working on it today. I purchased a filter and the mod cap is in the glove box. Looks like I am cutting tomorrow. Great job.
I thought I was going crazy. I really didn't have a cabin filter access door. Thanks much.
Thanks for showing the details in this modification
Awesome video Brother as I to town a Dodge Ram crew cab 1500 4x4 with the 5.7 Hemi & as I was looking for videos on wiper replacement's in came across your video & you have given Great insight & Direction on an Easily achieved add-on for those who's truck isn't equipped with the Much needed cabin filter !! Keep up your Awesome & Easily understood vid's my Friend & GOD BLESS !!
Thanks man! I've had my truck 4 years and bought a K&N filter to find I didn't have access.
Thank you for the video. Very helpful. I can do it myself now so I don't need my husband to do it for me. Thanks again.
Now I just called my maintenance guy to explain where he put the last cabin air filter he chargme now that I know my Ram comes without !
I just bought a filter and discovered mine is the same way. No current port for the filter. For a Ram that has just about everything "options" in it. No cabin filter...go figure.
Yeah. No shit. They kept telling me to change cabin filter. There isn’t one. Can’t wait to rag on them
Anyway to get more money 💰 because they think we are stupid. I do all my own repairs & if it's beyond my skill set, I have people that I can trust who won't fuck me over. Make sure you do the same.
Great video. Ran out and checked to find out my 2500 did not have the filter so ordered kit. Thanks for the advice on using a blade.
Those do not come as a kit from ram. They are just two different part numbers. 6840648AA & 68052292AA The only Ram I've seen come with the cabin filter is the Rebel so far. I work for the parts department for a Ram dealership. Great video.
Thanks for the info, I just bought a '14 sport and was surprised it didn't have one.
my 17 Ram 1500 express came with a cabin filter.
Thank you for sharing, The soldering gun looks to big to get in to do the job and way to hot. I modified a Weller (pencil type) soldering iron tip to except a modified #11 Ex-ado blade and made a easy perfect cutout without any loose derby getting down into the fan. I cut down a new larger cabin filter I had left over from a car I sold on my band saw. Size 7.25" X 8" and about .75" thick. I used duct tape instead of the $18 leaky front plate with the easy to brake off plastic latches. Duck tape was designed for air ducks and a 9" strip seals tightly.
Thanks, you did a great job,very clear and concise.👍
I am a single woman on disability and really didn't want to spend the money at the dealership to have my BOTH air filters replaced! Thank you, Thank you! Im kinda handy & like to do things that I can. Nothing to it. You were very clear and concise, and you REALLY helped me! I have the 2014 EcoDeisel Limited BADASS TRUCK and I LOVE it!!!!!! any other words of advice?? I have a Tonneau that the hinge is a little bent and docent sit on it right?????? Help
Wow, awesome suggestion regarding the addition of an odor eliminator on the filter. I've never seen this done. Very cool. I own both a 2018 RAM 3500 dually, and an '18 NSX, so I'll be doing this with both. Cheers.
Excellent video!! Explained installation perfectly !!! Thanks !!
Thanks for showing the part number of the cover - found one on Amazon.
Thanks! I will be replacing mine for the first time and your video really helped a lot.
Trying to rip it out for a half hour!
come to find out it doesn’t have one. I came across your video. Thank you very much.
ONE OF THE BEST STEP BY STEP VIDEOS IVE EVER SEEN ON UA-cam, YOUR A LIFE SAVER BRO, I GOT SERIOUS BREATHING ISSUES AND THIS IS THE FIRST VIDEO I FOUND THAT SHOWED AND EXPLAINED IN DETAIL HOW TO PUT IN THE MOD.
Can you tell me if this would work in a 2006?
Trust me, a knife 🔪 with a sharp 3 inch blade and a good handle will let you cut through this with ease. Complete install in about 15 minutes. No dremel tool or sanding necessary. 👍🏼
OMG!, I have been wondering how I can open and change the cabin filter of my 2015 ram. After watching your video, I realized that I had to do cutting. That's mean, the cabin airfilter of my ram has never been changed for 8 years 😢
I get it to inspection every 2 years and none of the machic bother to let me know 😒
Thanks for the video
Great video, very important informations. Thank you for sharing.
Best video on this thank you! Just got it done!
Beside filtering the outside air coming in because of allergies, it will help keep the heater core and AC evaporator (the outside of them) from plugging up with the dirt in the air. It is a pain to change them out for a lack of airflow at the vents
I have to wonder how much debris I have in my vents because of no cabin filter. My truck is nine years old and I just discovered I do not have one. Personally I think it's tachy that for what these vehicles cost they do not have one. On another note, I would think the freshiner spray being used would attrack dust more and possibly make the filter become dirtier faster or perhaps clogged if you live in a dusty environment. Thanks for the video, it was helpful.
Great video from a ram owner!!!!👍🏾
Thanks for the video brotha! Very informative! Gonna do this on my 2014 Ram, when i turn on AC it smells funny lol 😂, i assume its because cab in air filter needs to be changed. Thanks alot! Post more videos about your RAM!!
Always make sure you never totally release to quick
That's very odd that they wouldnt have one but yet have a perfect outline to cut one out. Almost like they were at the factory like " ehhhh... the hell with it no need for a cabin air filter" lol. By the way I have a 16 ram and it came with the filter.
I used oscillating tool to cut it out. Came out perfect. Yes do a separate video please
Good video man. Thanks for that. Interested in more Ram videos if you do some more mods.
Very useful! Had to order the cover! Ugh! It will be done when it comes to my door in 3 days!
Would love to see a RAM 1500 done with a shaker style hood! I think that would be bad ass!
This is hugely helpful! I don’t have that cover and will be getting that kit!
2017 they started coming from the factory with the cabin filter.
Thank you I have a 2012 Ram 3500....very useful information
U gotta do ur review of this truck can't wait thank u sir
Thank you went to go change mine and was stumped on how to get in there.
the new dc5 tow truck!!! nice choice Sergio!
I just bought a 2017 Ram 1500 SLT and it came with a cabin air filter! Just thought that you would like to know.
I just ordered a a kit off Ebay for under $9.00 . Also this is the second vid that there was a little issue with cover snapping in I noticed that the little spot center bottom was not trimmed out .
Thank you for this informative video 🙂
Great Hack... Mine was just like yours... except mine is a 2011, Ram 2500, PowerWagon
Thanks that helps a lot I'm going to order the kit for myself. Good how to video.
This videos was alot 9f help alot of the videos I watched just showed the cover but they didn't say that some years may not have one
Still puzzled as to why Ram neglected to install a cabin filter when they designed a place to put it? This is also where some used-car dealers will spray a "new car" scent on the filter to help sell an older car. Hey, it works!
Because Ram has their head where the sun doesnt shine.....take a look at the tranny oil change....what a ridiculoius idea they did. Filter and pan (molded together) for about $365.00, $850.00 if they do the oil change.
I think they only have it installed on certain trim levels like tradesman and maybe 2500/3500. Those series of trucks are more than likely going to be getting a little dirtier than a longhorn edition. Still dumb to not include on ALL trims, but I know everyone is aware how much Fiat loves money.
I just did this to my 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 and its actually pretty easy to install. I'm having problems with my dash board vents. There's no air blowing from there at all. What can the problem be? PLEASE HELP!!
Let's spray toxic additive onto the filter to assure you get that "clean" air for the cabin!
Richey Rich 😂
And add moisture to the system 👌
Thanks fam I didn’t even know
Great info thank you for the detailed directions.
You cutting the inside or outside of the raised outline
My truck smells like dirt when I turn the air on... I assume this is why. Thank you.
use a blade attached to soldering iron 👍🏻
Thanks for the info know I know where it goes THANKS 😊 👍
Thank you so much bro on a good informative video!
Thanks I was wondering what happened no slot for filter I think I might use a hot knife to cut mine though
Its good....I was searching for it👍
Thanks man, This was a major help!
love the comment at the end
Great instructions Sir! I also worked for Chrysler Academy and they have so .any accessories ONE available.
Thank you very much.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
thank you so much, great information!
I used an electric high speed dremel tool on mine. Faster and easy as pie! Took 5 min.
Were you cutting inside the raised bump line?
Thank you!
Video is very good and I learned a lot thank you
I have an 09 and will check. Thanks
Thank you very much. Well done.
Thank you brother
This was helpful! Thank you
The part you are cutting does have backwards tabs on the sides. What happens if you remove that cover instead of cutting it?
Thank you.
Good info, thanks
Very helpful thank you
Yo, was there an existing filter already in there?
Thanks man! going to go check now im pretty sure i dont have one and i thought i did lol
Thank you for that
Tank u , very helpful..
Good video. thanks
John my tranny service was$721.00 on a 8 speed 2014, 1500.
Do you know if I can do this to a 2003 ram 1500?
I dont think you can. These videos show 2010 and newer i have this problem with my 2008. There are no guides to cut anything however I may try to make a bracket and screw it into the box to.help the filter from.dropping down and upwards. It needs a 4 piece bracket something simple and just screw into the box. Problem is the OEM part cost 90.00$ and maybe the wreckyarda would have a newer one but honestly I put my hand behind the recirculation door and didn't feel anything under the cover. So ill try and make one. Just use the new cover as a.cutting guide id think and go from there. But the cover won't work as there is no clips to hold anything. Again only 2010 and newer have this I went to the dealership on this matter. Its dumb....I blow dust all the time
My truck didn't come with a filter or cover its just a hold there where the filter go in
Thanks
