I know you need to take the windshield cowl off on the passenger side of the car and the cabin air filter sits underneath it. Well, I don't know if a dealer did this to my car or what, but my cowl is caulked to the windshield and it cannot be removed. I don't know how to take it off without breaking anything. I guess I can cut the caulk and re-caulk when I'm done, but I don't know why someone would do this. Is there any other way to change the filter? I'll cut the caulk as a last resort, but I'm fairly certain the filter needs to be changed.
