I think the consensus is don't bother with these HEPA style filters. At best they won't work, at worse they could reduce airflow enough to ice up your coils and possibly damage your AC.

The reason they don't work is because they reduce airflow. The air that does get through will be very clean, but you're cleaning less air per minute. With the correct filter you're perhaps filtering less effectively but the air is passing through the filter much more often. Each time reducing the particulate. So in the end you have more contamination in the air vs using a normal filter.

You're better off with more frequent passes especially in a vehicle that's not truly air sealed and has air pushing against it at a minimum of and having passengers inside exhaling viruses.

For reference, even with 180ug/m3+ (pretty sure it was well over 200 at one point) wildfire smoke, just 5 minutes in my Honda with the doors/windows closed was enough to get it down to <20/ug/m3 which is basically a slightly hazy day in any remotely urban-ish area (you wouldn't even think about it unless you look at the EPA air quality index). That's with just the standard Honda cabin air filter and having the fan running high in the car.

The engineers who made your vehicle figured out the most efficient filtering rate relative to airflow for the cabin and the air sealing in the vehicle. Unless you've done more math than they have, just leave it alone and just change your filter as the manual says.

Same goes for performance enhancing "additives" in your tank. It's mostly bullshit.
If you want a nicer smelling air quality experience, get a carbon impregnated cabin filter. While the carbon filter doesn't work very long, it definitely does a better job with exhaust fumes or odors.

Depending on what vehicle you own, there could be a carbon cabin filter available for it. I just looked at Toyota's parts website and there is a regular and carbon odor cabin filter available from the factory for newer 4runners and Camrys.

This reduced the flow in my Forester to a comically low level. In auto the fan speed maxed out and almost no flow was felt. Unless they've made it less HEPA than it used to be, don't bother.

I thought the filter was only for outside air coming in. Like Pollen season. :-O

That depends… I suspect if the car uses OEM HEPA from factory, the the engineers would design it to only filter in recirculate mode due to the higher pressure/power/CFM/velocity/watevr.

Example:

Honda Prelude 5th gen filtered ONLY recirculating air with Factory OEM HEPA filters

Honda Civic 10th gen filtered BOTH recirculating and fresh air with regular Non-HEPA filters.

Are you saying the Honda Prelude 5th gen doesn't filter outside air or it has two filters? Thanks for the info.

I got one of these and they severely limited airflow to the point where I threw it out. AVOId unless you got a ongoing fire or something that requires that sort of sacrifice.

The big red flag for me from a general filter perspective is just how few pleats there are in this filter. It's no wonder the air flow is so restrictive. They didn't even bother to increase surface area to offset the increased filtration. Disappointing product from an otherwise respected company.

This is one of those things the dealer always tries to sell me on and I never cared to have them do (mainly due to the price).

But then I saw the video for my car, and essentially you have to remove however many interior panels and it looks like the car was destroyed.

Maybe still not worth having the dealer do, as they might screw it up, but it may not necessarily be a quick install job.
