Parts-Mall supplies cabin and aircon filters for the Hyundai i20 across the 2009 onward range, through 40+ branches in South Africa. A cabin filter cleans the air entering the passenger compartment through the ventilation and air conditioning system, trapping dust, pollen and road grime.
Hyundai i20 years and engines covered
| Years | Engines |
|---|---|
| 2009 to 2014 | 1.2 and 1.4 petrol |
| 2014 onward | 1.2 and 1.4 petrol |
Years and engines are a guide to the South African market. Exact fitment is confirmed by the supplying branch against your vehicle before dispatch.
What cabin and aircon filters do
Air drawn in by the blower passes through a pleated element before reaching the vents. Activated carbon versions also absorb odours.
Signs your Hyundai i20 needs a new cabin filter
- Reduced airflow from the vents at all fan speeds
- A musty or stale smell when the fan is switched on
- Windows misting more readily than they used to
- A visibly dirty element on inspection
When to replace them
Roughly annually, and more often on dusty or gravel routes. It is among the most commonly overlooked service items.
What to confirm before ordering
- Your Hyundai i20 build year and engine
- Element dimensions and the filter location, which is often behind the glovebox
- Standard or activated carbon
- Whether the vehicle has one or two elements
Hyundai i20 cabin filter questions
Which cabin filter fits my Hyundai i20?
Parts-Mall supplies cabin and aircon filters for the Hyundai i20 across the 2009 onward range. Because the same model name covers several engines and specifications, the exact part is confirmed by the supplying branch against your build year and engine before it is dispatched. Call your nearest branch with those details and they will confirm it while you are on the line.
What do I need to tell the branch to order a cabin filter for a Hyundai i20?
The build year and the engine, plus element dimensions and the filter location, which is often behind the glovebox. Those three details are enough for the counter to confirm the correct part in most cases.
Why does my air conditioning smell musty?
Usually a saturated cabin filter combined with moisture on the evaporator. Replacing the filter is the first step, and treating the evaporator deals with what remains.
Does a blocked cabin filter affect the air conditioning?
Yes. It restricts airflow across the evaporator, which reduces cooling performance and makes the system work harder for the same result.
