The headline said, 'How often aircon filter need changing?' Who would bother to have a look at the fiddly little forum title when the subject is so obviously aircon?

 

Not many as the responses clearly demonstrated. Like I said: clarity would have helped.

As said its in Thai motors forum

AFAIK Mitsu don't make aircons called Triton.

And just how many people know that?

 

You've been on this forum longer than I have. So you must know by now that many posters will just read the headline and jump to their own conclusion. It happens all the time doesn't it.

 

The headline said 'aircon' so the thread must be about A/C. A very logical conclusion in my opinion.

Probably (nearly) everyone that reads the Motoring Forum.

I always sit with my car when it's serviced. They show me all the things like filters if they are dirty I just tell them to replace them never have them cleaned. The last A/C filter I had replaced at 5k KM because in my estimation it was passed it's sell by date. Cost is around 400 BHT so why not, it lets the A/C work at full power without having to turn it up fan wise. And yes before anyone asks I do still have a full service at 5k KM and not the 10k recommended.

Some don't like throwing money away on unnecessary things. 

400 baht for a filter sounds like you are being ripped off.

Yes airfilters are something that you don't really notice because they clog slowly.

When mine was changed notice the air-con was blowing much colder straight away.

At least 4 posters gave advice on how to service his domestic A/C, so clearly it wasn't!

Some just need to read and observe what they reply to.

The cabin air filter in our Fortuner is B480 from Toyota or B60 on Lazada. 

 

No tools and less than 10 minutes to change.
