Cabin air filter from a 2002 Impreza Outback Sport I recently bought
The car smelt a bit weird… so I decided to check out the cabin air filter. I have never, ever, seen a cabin air filter this bad. The connector to the blower had so much lint in it that the fuse had tripped, so the blower had probably not worked for a couple years if I had to guess, and the filter just… turned into this. Replaced the fuse and cleaned the connector, and I have blowing air now at least. Car also had three matching tires, 4th was like 7 years older than the rest :)
