Purolator C36067

[Seejay]

To quote Yello, "Oh Yeah". Far better than the OEM replacement and half the price. This is definitely the cabin air filter you want for your Genesis.

It's electrostatically charged and has an activated charcoal layer.

Purolator is a shipping company. I googled the name and come back empty handed. I was expecting something like filter manufacturer and part number. Thank you

OH my, not to good on searching stuff are you. If you google search "Purolator C36067", you will get this. https://www.google.ca/search?client...oe=UTF-8&gfe_rd=cr&ei=BZ1lV_GVEYOi8wfTp434AQ#

Sorry folks, I could blame it on age or laziness, take your pick. In the USA, it's available at Advance Auto Parts stores http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/purolator-cabin-air-filter-c36067/10563784-P and for those elsewhere (assuming Hyundai has the same filter all the DH Genesis sedans they make for world market) Amazon has it http://www.amazon.com/Purolator-C36067-BreatheEASY-Cabin-Filter/dp/B00U1OKQ5O

It's so much cheaper than the filter for my Sonata which is just treated paper like the OEM filter for it and the Genesis, it could be mis-priced. I bought three.

Read the label - the last time I did that on the Purolator Oil filters - it read "made in India".

If that's what you want - then go for it.

Purolator is a shipping company? I guess you got them confused with a different Purolator.

I will admit that they probably don't manufacturer 100% of the products they sell, but they do make many of them. They have been in business a long time and claims to invented the oil filter.

"In 1923, Ernest Sweetland and George H. Greenhalgh patented the first automotive oil filtration system. They called their invention “Purolator”, short for the words “pure oil later”, and they began a story of quality and innovation that continues to this day."​

Purolator is now a division of MANN+HUMMEL, which made the Hyundai OEM oil filters for the 2009-2011 Genesis V6 (the new OEM ones are made by Mahle).

Interesting, but where did you find the specs for that especially the part about it being an electro-static filter and did you find an specifics on the particulate side.

The other oft mentioned filer is the Fram CF 10735 and the fol is all I could find on the specs/features of each ...

FRAM Fresh Breeze Cabin Air Filter CF 10735 :

-With Arm & Hammer® Baking Soda

-Premium Efficiency - Filters 98% of dust, pollen, and other contaminants from 5 microns

-Odor Absorption - Arm & Hammer® baking soda combined with carbon embedded into the filter assist in cleaning outside air flowing through the vehicle's ventilation system.

Purolator C36067:

-Catches microscopic pollutants like soot, smog, and tobacco smoke Activated charcoal eliminates odors and unhealthy gases Particular layer restricts entry of large airborne particles into the A/C system like dust, pollen, mold spores and fungus Multi-Layer Protection Better Breathing for non-allergy and allergy sufferers Clean smelling air.

While the Fram specs are not that specific the TOTAL LACK of any detailed info as to precents, filtering size on the Purolator filter often means that the "lack of specifics tells one those aren't so great!" and maybe things are so great as the generalities want you to believe.

I have been using the Purolators for my Sonata for the last nine years, and they were always subtly better than the Hyundai OEM part (electrostatically charged). But the Purolator filter for the Genesis is another thing altogether, it is grossly superior to the original part replaced. They are made in Korea.

And I change them often, every six months.

Purolator is a well established name in environmental air filtering. I am disappointed that they only claim it meets or exceeds the OEM specifications. But I will take the one made in Korea for 17$, not the one made in China for 30$. Color me biased.

It's just a cabin air filter.

Besides, there is a lot of misunderstanding about HVAC filters. The ones that trap the most particles usually have a higher pressure drop, and may be too inhibiting of the air flow of the HVAC system, and cause damage or inefficiencies of the system.

This happens many times for HVAC systems in homes when people use very high MERV (or FPR) rated filter. The return air system is usually not designed large enough for a highly restrictive filter.

The best thing one can do is change the cabin air filter often, with an OEM spec filter. If you smoke inside the car, there may be some advantage to a higher quality filter, but you must change it very often since it restricts air flow in order to capture smoke particles, and the longer you keep it in there, the more restrictive it gets.

Here is an air filtration tutorial for homes, but the same principles apply to a car.

I don't see how that applies here as long as the aftermarket filter manufacturer is saying it meets or exceeds OEM specs. Now if you don't believe them aftermarket manufacturer that's another issue altogether and one would be hard pressed I think to proven that. We're not talking about generic filters, but ones made for a specific application so things like flow rates, etc. have to meet the OEM specs if the OEM has even spec'd that characteristic and if they haven't then they have no standing to question if you are using the correct filter.

I guess I'm jiust of the school that if a product has a real positive characteristic then 99.99% of the time the manufacturer will clearly include that in their marketing and if it's absent then it probably is not a positive for their product. This is why I questioned if the Purolator was really an electro-static filter and what they mean when the say reduces "LARGE" whatevers. You notice Fram proudly in almost every add tauts their 5 micron and use of baking soda (a know order absorber) in their filter which they feel are positives.

My main point is that it is just a cabin air filter. Let's not get carried away with about how much better one filter is than another. I personally don't smoke, don't cook inside my car, and don't have pets in my car, so it is not going to matter much what kind of filter I put in. I am reasonably careful to change my setting to "recirculate" when I see smoke or dust ahead of me on the road.

The Genesis is the first car I have owned that even had a cabin air filter. If you were talking about oil filters, then maybe it might be of some consequence to argue about how effective one filter is over another. Although the same issue of flow rate applies, in that an oil filter that traps a lot of contaminants, "may" restrict oil flow too much, if not designed correctly.

Regarding specs, unfortunately there is no rating for air pressure or air flow reduction of cabin air filters that I know of, even in home HVAC units. But most HVAC techs will tell you they have had to replace motors in home units that were overworked trying to suck air through an expensive filter that supposedly traps a lot of contaminants.

Love to breath fresh air walking around in my neighborhood and I don't remember wearing an air filter. Purolator, Hyundai, Fram, name it, the cheapest one is what I get (of course I don't live in Mexico City, Beijing or Mumbai) but that just me. Oil filter, that's another story.

For my first 30 years of driving none of my cars had a cabin air filter - hell, my first car (a '57 chevy) didn't have a OIL filter! I was amazed when my new 2001 Sonata had one, I've been changing them every 6 months or so ever since.

Unlike the engine air filter, I really don't think the particle size specs or charcoal make much of a difference; opening the doors or windows bypasses the whole thing anyway. Just so it captures bugs, leaves, and cigar butts that happen to bounce their way into the air intake. I've been ordering whatever's cheapest on Amazon with good results.
