Like a lot of you I've been changing my own cabin air filters for years. Its almost mind-numbingly simple.
So... I figured after 23 months and 20k miles it was about time I at least checked its condition. I even watched a YouTube tutorial for s**** and giggles as a precaution. Is it just me, or is the glove box incredibly hard to free up? I was using far more force than I had ever exerted before trying to get it past the side posts, but the left side simply wouldn't clear the post. Further, it was quite a narrow slot for my hand to squeeze into, complicating the process, and scratching up my hand as well. The glove box in the video (on a 2013 CX5) appeared a lot more flexible/flimsy than mine.
Is it just me? Did something change with the later models to inhibit the glove box removal?
Should I just give it holy hell and assume its strong enough not to break?
thx!
