try opening the windows and turning on the fan. no heat, no a/c, just the fan. should cool down and blow the hot air into the cabin(thats y you roll down the windows). It will coll it off.
You need to remove the ''pop fasteners'' on the plastic trim cover on the RHD side (looking into the engine) of the rear of the engine bay where air vent slots are visible. the filter is mounted under there, it slides in. Tricky but not difficult.
These filters should both be replaced at the same time, every 6000 miles or every other oil change. However, the cabin filter almost always fouls up faster than the engine air filter, so maybe every 3000 miles for the cabin.
Have to first remove the plastic cover under the windshield wipers in order to have access to the cabin air filter. It is held together by plastic expansion plugs and four torx bolt covered by rectangular cover. Then remove the windshield wiper and presto air filter.
Depending if you kept up with recommended maintenance as per factory. If you did this is what the factory sheet suggests for 90000 Miles checkup :
Diagnose / Test
Vehicle : verify parking brake operation
Inspect :
Battery
Brake fluid
Brake pad
Coolent
Drive belt
Fluids
Power steering fluid
Tires
Windshield Washer Reservoir
Replace :
Air filter element
Cabin air filter
Engine oil and sump washer
Engine oil filter
Wiper blades
I'm not sure what the cabin filter is but the air filter is straight forward. With the hood open you should see the air box just inside on the right with the large induction hose going across and to the engine. The top of the air box should open with a couple of hooks or clamps and the air filter sits on top inside the open box.
