I’m now leaning towards cars that are popular in China...sure lots of original and oem parts going cheap at taobao...even cheaper at carousell when peep stock up parts but migrate to another car...

I change every 3 months, you will see cotton wool like dust inside the folds.

TB provides very cheap alternatives. For my ride, $3 per cabin filter. I usually top up 3-5 pcs at one time....

No brainer....Will you wash your room air con filter every 6 months to 1 year?

And car is alot of dusty...

Please change aircon filter often. This is only after 4 months and 5000km. Air quality is bad nowadays and I drive on normal roads only.

That's bad. Mine swapped out every 12 months also not as bad.

If cabin ventilation is set to draw in external air, the cabin air will be more dirty. Use recirculation mode for short drives for cleaner cabin air, lower air con energy and cleaner filter.
