Good to Know
Caution
- Use the cabin-filter procedure for your actual Model S. Do not treat this filter as a complete HEPA filtration-system upgrade or as a replacement for a separate underhood HEPA assembly.
- Turn off climate control before servicing. Handle any panel wiring and clips according to the vehicle procedure; stop if access requires unfamiliar electrical or restraint-system work.
- Keep the filter media dry, follow the airflow marking and fully seal the filter door. A filter that must be forced into the housing is the wrong fit.
Care
- Follow the cabin-filter maintenance schedule for the vehicle build and market, and the replacement filter service guidance. Dusty conditions can require earlier inspection.
- Do not wash the disposable filter media. Replace a damaged or heavily contaminated filter; investigate persistent odors or restricted airflow rather than assuming the filter is the only cause.
FAQ
Which versions are offered?
Before 2015 / TSL2803, 2016–2020 / TSL3009 and 2021-Present / TSL2804.
How many filters are included?
One cabin filter in the selected version, plus installation instructions. Product photographs showing different filter surfaces do not change the package quantity.
Is this a HEPA system upgrade?
This is a replacement cabin ventilation filter. It does not add a complete HEPA system or replace a separate underhood HEPA assembly.
Is the replacement procedure the same for every Model S?
No. Use the cabin-filter access, panel handling and airflow orientation procedure for your vehicle generation. There is no single installation time for all three options.
When should I replace it?
Follow the maintenance schedule for your actual Model S and market, together with the replacement filter guidance. Inspect earlier in dusty use; persistent odor or airflow issues may need additional HVAC service.
