2009 A4 3.2L Cabin Filter Change
It isn't difficult but thought I would show the steps to replace the Cabin Air Filter.
Parts: NPN Charcoal Activated Cabin Air Filter – 8K0 819 439A
1. The filter is located under the glove box. A small light will help you find what you are looking for.
2. There are three plastic screws that need to be unscrewed. Once they are loose remove the plastic/foam piece they were holding in. Feel free to give it a tug, it won't rip.
3. Once removed you will expose a hard plastic tray that holds the filter in place. It has a piece that you can grab a hold of. Push it to the right to remove it.
4. The filter will most likely fall part way out once the tray is removed. You will have to give it a few tugs to get it out the rest of the way. Remember which way the notch was when you pulled it out as the new one will have to go in the same way.
5. Once removed put in the new filter and reverse the steps above. Finished, money saved!

Thanks a lot!
Local shop wanted to charge me 60 bucks to replace filter, kinda had a musty odor to A/C. Service man couldn't figure it out told me to go back to the dealer. Found your post and I did it myself in 10 minutes. Thanks!

Glad I could help. My car had the same odor until I changed the filter. Guess the factory filter isn't that great. Fun saving money isn't it?
