How to Replace the Dust Filter in a Honda Pilot
Every model year of the Honda Pilot is equipped with a dust and pollen filter that keeps the air in the passenger cabin clean and free of allergens. This filter is commonly referred to as a cabin air filter. Honda recommends replacing the cabin filter on the Pilot once a year or every 10,000 miles. If the Pilot is driven on dusty roads frequently, or in other extreme conditions such as heavy traffic, the filter will become dirty more quickly. A clean cabin filter increases the air flow throughout the ventilation system and is effective at trapping allergens to keep them from entering the passenger area.
