Scheduled Maintenance Guide - Seat Filter?
The Scheduled Maintenance Guide in my 2011 owners manual states that I should "Replace climate-controlled seat filter (if equipped)" every 30,000 miles. Does a 2011 Mustang GT with the Electronics Package (dual-zone climate control) have this filter? If so, does anyone know the replacement part number and/or have instructions for replacing it?

Thanks

Correct, they use a circular filter.



Climate controlled seat filters can get quite nasty if not replaced...

Interesting. I thought heated seats did not, but heated/AC seats would, since air is flowing through those. Not sure why you'd need a filter when the seat is heated by an element.

Is this why my wife's old Expi smelled like ***? Get it?

You logic seems right- I just looked at my mkz which has the heated/cooled. Not sure on the heated only.
