HI
Can you give me step by step instruction on how to change a cabin filter on a 2002 hyundai sonata? Smells like spoiled meat with blower on-mechanic thinks a mouse got into the system-hopefully a cabin filter replacement will do the trick

Why do think he died on the cabin air filter?Thats highly unlikely most of the ones I have seen were killed by the blower fan and thats were the mouse will most likely be on the blower fan wheel or close by it.

Alright let me know how it goes. Also I would get a ac duct cleaning kit the expanding foam kind. After you have found your animal.

It depends on the build date what I am sending is prio rto 3/03 if it's after that then its' different. You have ot pull the glove box out to get to it. There are 6 screws and pic I took this from doesn't show all. There are 2 10mm bolts as well.
