Did a search on here but couldn't find info I needed on this. I also looked in my owner's manual and could not locate anything about a cabin filter. Does anyone know if the GXP has one and where it is ?

Yes it has one. Easy to change. It's under the right cowl panel.Remove a few clips, move a washer hose, and it's right under there. The filter costs about 14 bucks though at Wally World.

Ahh thanks. Nowhere in the owner's manual could I find that. Must be one of those purposely omitted things so you can take it to the dealer and get ripped off. I have lots of pine needles everywhere and had noticed lately when I first get into the car that it smells like somebody farted in there. Then once the fan comes on and the car starts moving it goes away. Hopefully changing that filter will take care of it. Couldn't find any moisture on the floor anywhere. Thanks again for the help.

Imagine I went to a dealer about changing the filter and they said the car did not have one. I never returned back.

Go figure. You would think that they would have that in their computer's IPB list or maybe there are just several unqualified people on the job ya think ? Thankfully we have many knowledgeable people on these forums to help us.

LOL. The service managers are usually the most ignorant people at the stealership, next to the salespeople and the car washers.

Thanks guys, looks like I need to drag my #ss to the store and get the part and get it done before the crappy weather starts.
