Do I have a Biohazard filter AND a cabin air filter?

I have a 2020 Model X LR+ with Biohazard Defense. Does my X have both a BioHazard air filter AND a cabin air filter?

Yes, the HEPA bio defense filter and the cabin filter are two separate filters. The HEPA is pricey, the cabin filter is a pretty cheap one to change.

I was just watching a video on how to change the filter... I can't believe how difficult it is to get that filter. All of my other cars, I can change the filter in just a minute or two. I think I'll save this task for a future service appointment.

Watching an air filter replacement on a 2017 model S, the cabin filter thru the glove box was 3x as complicated as my 2015 S but the huge bio filter behind the frunk, well the Tesla designers should be drug tested.

It's like 15 minutes to gain access to. The 3 cabin filter is more difficult imo.

I just replaced mine with an aftermarket which was reasonably priced. Let me see if I can find it, I have it somewhere in a video I shot

Tesla Service charged me only about $10 for the cabin filter OTC. I installed myself, takes about 10 minutes. Was a no brainer as I was replacing the front HVAC blower anyways. They used brushed motors, unfortunately, and I wore out the brushes. Non-Replaceable brushes :-( M3 and MY use brushless.

Otherwise if you don't want to take the trek to a Service Center, Amazon ~$18 Prime. https://amzn.to/487odun


I'm also editing a video on how to replace the filter & HVAC blower. Should be up in a couple days.
