2006 Avalon Filters

[alamogunr]

Just got a circular from my dealer with "coupons" for various services. Air filters, engine and cabin, seem high. I know my car needs new filters since I haven't had it to the dealer for service since 25000 mi. I can't seem to find the cabin air filter. All descriptions of the glove box on other models don't fit mine. Does anyone know how to access this filter?

Also where is the best place to buy filters for this car?

I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer. I looked in the owners manual and found the cabin air filter. Easy! Now I need to get to the engine air filter. I can't seem to get the cover off. Any suggestions?

Open glove box. On right hand side unscrew the screw and remove. There will be a mini gas charge type of arm attached to it. When you remove the end it will recede. Lower glove box as far as it will go and the cabin air filter is staring right at you. Pull out, slide in new one. Raise up door to glove box, pull up on the arm until it is long enough to slide back into its slot and replace screw. My vehicle is a 2006 Limited and should be the same as yours.
