Interesting. How often do you do this? This is what the air-con mechanic will do yah when u send it in for servicing?

well, minus the washing machine though. I dont think they does that?

Blitz does a nice anti bacteria filter for the AC. I used to have one on my R34. Don't know if there is one for the G11. Would be nice to have. Also, at least it is nice to know that TCM is actually providing the filters on their cars now. I had a friend who opened the compartment to check the filter on his X-trail and found that there was no filter there! Apparently TCM never provided the filter on the X-trail.

my waja is paper type,blm is plastic mesh type.
i dont buy a replacement filter for the waja but i rip out the old filter.
bought a home aircon filter.its an additional filter actually and looks like a tissue.
bought it ai Daiso so its rm5.
cut to shape amd done.

better flow than paper type and seem to have odour removing ability.
will upload pic when i replaced it again probably this weekend as its already dirty.
flow is very slow.

i also used it as an additional filter in front of my k&n air filter to capture all those dead bug from
getting in between the v shape vilter as they are very hard to removed even with an air gun.
