Is a clogged cabin AC filter in Changan Kalam responsible for weak air conditioning and foul smells in the interior?

Some users report poor AC flow and bad odor. Is the AC filter getting choked due to Pakistans air quality issues?

Yes — a choked AC filter:

Blocks airflow, making AC feel weak, especially at low fan speeds.

Traps moisture, dust, pollen, and pollutants, causing bad smells o r mildew inside the cabin.

High pollution and smog in cities like Lahore, Gujranwala, Faisalabad, lead to faster clogging.

➡️ Cabin filters should be inspected and replaced regularly, especially before summer o r winter.
