The only reason I asked is that my manual says to replace it. You would think one exists if they tell you to replace it. I'll have to ask the dealer.

Cabin filter
Hey Aklim, I'm with you. My Dad has said that as far back as I can remember. My son's will say the same thing about me. I also have a Passat, The inside of the cabin is so clean. The cabin filter is a yearly thing on my list. I'm going to get into my manual and truck and see what I can find. Lets make us a group effort.

??????If you have some spare time, have at it. Trust us, the Excursions of any year do NOT have a cabin air filter. I certainly wish it did, as I have an '05 Passat TDI also and I can see what kind of garbage the filter collects.
Take Care

Thanks very much for the information. I would have spent forever looking for the thing and probably scratching up my hands looking under and behind everything.
