Is there an inside air filter?

I have been a proud owner of a 2003 Z71 for three days so far! Except for the gas mileage, I love it!

My dead Chrysler had an A/C problem, as in no air. I found out that there is an air filter inside, under the dash, on the passenger side. I pulled it out and it was full of.....acorns!! It was a mouse nest!

Does the Avalanche have a similar filter? There is a hinged panel down there, but I don't know what's behind it.
 
There have been reports of a cabin air filter in the '02... but my '03 did not have one.  I think they moved away from those.
 
No only 02 had them,  but they were some conversion kits for the 03-06 but they are long gone.
 
There are some for the 07 up. Search here and YouTube some have retrofit in 1st gen.
 
Thank you. I am not looking to add one. I was just curious if there was one already that might need checking. I had my Chrysler for 2 months before I knew it even had one...and it was completely clogged.
 
I have 07 is that the little round jobber doober on the driver side above the door ? It made an awful racket and I had to pay Chevy a pretty good price to have it replaced :needhug:

So you are saying the 2007-2013 had cabin air filters?  Would love any pointers towards info on that.

TIA

My previous Avalanche, a 2003, I modified to put a cabin filter in.

Most likely meant you can mod it. No second gen Avy has a cabin air filter unless someone adds it.
 
Check here for 07-13 AV's. I thought they used to have one for 03-06, but I don't see it any more..

Thanks Randy that fits the Escalade. I never knew about them.

That part you are talking about is an air temp sensor and sometimes the small fan inside goes bad and makes noise. Not an air filter though.
