The cabin air filter in a 2001 Toyota 4Runner sits behind the glove box in a plastic casing. This filter is crucial for keeping harmful pollutants like pollen and dust out of the air you breathe while driving. If you start noticing less air flowing through your vehicle, it could be a sign that the cabin air filter needs to be replaced. A worn-out filter may not effectively purify the incoming air, leading to weak airflow when using the air conditioning. Thankfully, this is an affordable and simple issue to address, with the average cost of a new cabin air filter ranging from $10 to $30, and it's something you can easily do on your own.

    There is no option available for that specific year. The inclusion of that feature began in 2002.

    Oh no, I discovered this after purchasing a replacement part from Advance Auto Parts that they guarantee they have in stock. I even watched a YouTube tutorial on how to install it, but when I removed the glove box, I realized there was no space for the part.

    I also didn't see one. It wasn't like the video demonstrations showing where it's supposed to be. It was just a blower with a vent tube running across, which was quite unlike what was shown in the videos.
