- Cost: RM 130–200
Haze Season and Cabin Filter Replacement
Malaysia's annual haze season (typically June–October) spikes PM2.5 particle levels. A clean activated-carbon cabin filter in your Q8 absorbs these particles before they enter the cabin. With a clogged filter, the HVAC blower motor works harder, A/C cooling efficiency drops, and musty odours develop. The European recommendation of 30,000 km cabin filter replacement is too long for Malaysia — at 4M Car Care we replace it every 15,000–20,000 km and inspect condition at every oil change.
