BOSCH 6089C HEPA Cabin Air Filter - Compatible with Select Kia Soul, Soul EV

Excellent for for Rainer rover Vogues 2017

Bought this as is shown to fit FJ cruiser but didnt fit the filter holder on my 2012 fj cruiser Gulf specs

Excellent

Arrived on time which is very rare for items with international shipping. product is perfect as described

I have an e+Tekna 62kWh 2020 and, despite the years specified in the description, this fitted perfectly.I have an allergy to a fungus which would pass through the standard cabin filter so this means I can drive without wearing a mask.

good price, rubbish packaging, in a thin box inside a poly bag. When it arrived, it looked like it had been jumped on. Amazingly it appears to have survived in tact

The good:fits my 2013 RAV4 perfectly, as good or better construction than OEM product, seems to freshen air quite noticeablyThe not-so-good:HEPA filter restricts airflow significantly, which affects efficiency of fan/AC and may (?) also lead to other issues over the longer term ie. filter clogging sooner, more wear and tear on fan motor etc. This said, I see no evidence of this as of yet...but it way too soon to judge. Also, no baking soda/charcoal incorporated into filter so it also remains to be seen if odour elimination is less effective with this as compared to other productsI relied heavily on Bosch's reputation when I purchased this. Hopefully I am not proven wrong on this. Should things wind up unfolding much better than I estimate it will (based on initial impression) then I may upgrade this review to 4 or 5 stars.*** UPDATE 16 March 2018: after a couple of months of use filtered air is still fresh smelling but I have noticed car interior windows seem to inexplicably fog up (partially) regardless of weather conditions, number of passengers or climate control settings. With the OEM filter this never occurred despite being located on west coast (Seattle/Vancouver) region. I will attempt to use the remaining unopened filter that I previously purchased later in the summer and will not be reordering this item in the future. Previous rating of 3-stars now downgraded to 2-star.

I bought this filter a while ago, and today had some time to actually test it outside the car held up to a blower, using my Laser Egg 2 particle monitor. Outdoor air had a raw count reading of about 2400 particles per 0.1L. With the 6055C against the blower and the particle counter against the other side of the filter, I got a reading of 0. After a bit the reading rose to 3. This is the same kind of reading I get with a HEPA room air purifier. For comparison, I tested a Fram CF10285 cabin air filter against the blower, and the particle count was about 1400.The only limitation is caused by the car itself. I had hoped to be able to have HEPA-filtered air blowing from the vents, but the particle reading ends up being around 450 due to leakage around the filter frame. The car doesn't have a tight seal around the filter.A few months ago I sat in a Tesla Model X with "bioweapon defense mode" activated, and the air from the vents in that car read about 100 on the Laser Egg 2, showing that Tesla might also have the limitation of leakage around the edges of their HEPA filter. I need to build a filter holder for the Bosch 6055C that will seal properly in this 2017 Toyota Sienna.

I purchased this product for my 2009 toyota corolla. It worked out and performs excellent, so far so good with no problems. This filter would cost hundreds of dollars at my local dealer but saved a ton of money buying here. Filter fit perfectly in place with no problems. The only difference with this filter and OEM is the arrow for air flow which I had to install opposite of my original filters placement and one side of the filter has a difference from the other side with smaller venting holes as you can see in my pictures. Fast shipping from this seller and very good quality. I do not know what the customer service is like for this company because I did not need to reach them for any problems.Thank you again amazon for a great product at affordable price.
