Does anyone know what this Red symbol means? I know I need a cabin air filter, checked the manual and it didn't show what this symbol is.
Thanks in advance

Yea its the cabin filter. Mine says 40,000 miles and 05/2012, which is a little confusing.

Does that mean IN 40,000 miles I will have to change it, or does it mean AT 40,000 miles I have change it? Im at 39,400 right now..

No it's in 40k miles. It counts down to 0 or your reach the date, whichever is first.

In that video it has the same symbol the op has, the guy says it's the 'radiator coolant'...... is everyone sure it's the cabin filter and not radiator related?

Yea that guys wrong im 99.9999% sure. When i was still under warranty and this light showed up and i brought it in it was for a cabin air filter which they changed. It pops up once a year. This year i reset it to wait for warmer weather to change it myself.

I finally changed the cabin filter and it was really easy to do, now I just have to reset it as per fellow members postings, thanks to all with the info.
