TundraGeneral discussion forum for the 2007 and later Toyota Tundra.
This is a discussion thread titled "Cabin Air Filter", within the Tundra forum, part of the Truck Forums category.
I had never thought about it until I read this thread. Mine looks about like Skyhammerz pictures 3&4 after 17k miles. Advance Auto lists a Purolator filter part #C35667 for $12.00, but I haven't seen one yet.

I just changed my Cabin Air Filter today. I ordered it from my dealer and had it shipped to my house because the dealer is over 100 miles away. When I removed the old filter it looked a little different than the new one. I ordered the Toyota filter that was listed in this Forum, P/N 87139-YZZ08. Come to find out there are two different filters for the Tundra, the better one being P/N 87139-07010. This is the one the dealer installed at my 15K service. The 07010 is a better filter and has more pleats than the YZZ08 filter and costs about five dollars more. I haven't run the AC yet, so I don't know if it will make any difference in air flow. The link below will show the two filters and what they are supposed to filter. Click on the pdf file at the bottom of the page that says Replacement Application Chart.
I ordered an in cabin filter from Autozone, but it never came in. So I picked one up at the dealer for $25.92. I hadnt even looked at the old one, but figured it must be dirty after 15k miles. It was much dirtier than I thought it would be. I had noticed that the AC had not been putting out as much air lately, so hopefully this helps.
At 22000 my wife complained about smell from air conditioner. Smelled like mold. Plenty of air was still flowing through system. I pulled filter today and what was remaining was clogged but the kicker was there was a big hole in center where rodent had eaten through filter. I will be checking more often. I really drive in an area with paved roads and little visible dust. 15000 change is probable reasonable.

Good post, great info on the two different filters.
This is a picture of the different filters. The one on the right is a used (3kmiles)less efficient filter after I washed it. While it looks dirty, it actually cleaned up fairly well, but the smoke from all our fires would not come out, especially the smell.
The filter on the left is a new more efficient filter.
I have 13k miles and just put in my 4th filter.
Skyhammerz....Great photos! If I would have known there were two types of filters, I would have bought the more efficient one, P/N 07010. I wonder why they offer two different versions anyway??
Has anyone bought the NAPA filter, P/N 4488?? Just wonder which of the above filters it replaces??

I picked up mine yesterday at Advance Auto Parts (Purolator,12 bucks) it looks exactly like the filter on the left above. I installed it this morning before I left for work.

Actually, the picture on the left(new filter) is the NAPA version,if you look closely you can see the NAPA box under the filter, it looks exactly the same as the Toyota filter.If you look at my picture on the first page(a Toyota filter), you will see they look identical.
Sorry, I should have been more accurate in my description in my post above.
I just got a cabin filter from dealer should of seen this thead first its the cheaper one they gave me, but whitch one is really better ?
the more effeciant one would be the cheaper one with less pleats thinner material equals more airflow and colder air
thicker meterial more pleates equals less airflow and will clog up again alot faster
but, Will dust entering the fan clog up the coils like a home unit?
Im comparing these to my home central ac filter the good hepa expensive ones only last a week before looking cloged up so i just buy middle class ones and change more frequintly
