The 2011 Chevrolet Silverado does come with a cabin air filter, despite common misinformation online. To locate the filter, head to the passenger side of your vehicle. You'll need to take out the glove box, which might require tools like a pry tool or screwdriver. Once you remove the glove box, you'll see the filter behind it. If it's dirty or clogged, you'll need to replace it. A new filter typically costs between $8 and $34. If you hire a professional to do the replacement, expect to pay between $50 and $130 for labor.
My 2011 vehicle is equipped with an interior air filter, and I have recently changed it out.
No cabin filters are provided in the 2011 Chevy Silverado 1500, as GM discontinued their inclusion in 2003.
Certainly! Here's a paraphrased and rephrased version: May I add something to it?
The 2011 Chevy Silverado does not have a cabin air filter included as a standard feature.
My friend owns a 2011 Silverado truck and was advised that he needs a retro kit in order to install a cabin filter. To do this, he has to cut out a square section underneath his dashboard and replace it with the kit.
I just disassembled mine, but there was nothing inside.
I've completely taken apart my dashboard (just because I wanted to) and I can't find a cabin air filter anywhere behind the dashboard on either the driver or passenger side.
I'm puzzled too. My 2011 4.8-liter vehicle doesn't seem to have one, or at least I can't locate it. I checked behind the glove box and there's nothing that looks like where it should be. The information I've come across is conflicting, with some saying it should have one and others saying it might not. Is there a surefire method to determine the presence of this feature?
Certainly! I'm having trouble locating it in my 2011 Silverado 1500 LS 4.8, and neither online nor at a dealership seems to know where it's located.
There are those who do things, and there are those who do not.
The 2011 Chevy Silverado does not have a cabin filter installed in it when it's made.
I don't see a cabin filter in there. I checked it out and found nothing when I took it apart.
Nope, definitely not!
If the filter is in poor condition, the air conditioner will simply blow out hot air.
