What This Filter Does
This is a cabin air filter, not an engine air filter. It sits in the HVAC intake path and cleans the air before it reaches the blower and the vents. The media is activated carbon layered with a particulate element, so it catches dust and pollen while the carbon absorbs diesel fumes, exhaust odors, and general road stink.
Carbon media matters more on a sleeper truck than on a day cab. A driver parked at a truck stop with the HVAC running is pulling in whatever the trucks around him are putting out. A plain particulate filter stops the grit but does nothing about the smell. The carbon layer is what handles the gas-phase stuff.
Sealing surfaces are part of the job. If the filter does not seal in the housing, unfiltered air takes the easy path around the element and loads the evaporator core with debris. That shows up later as weak AC and a permanent damp odor that a new filter alone will not fix.
Why These Numbers Cross
23567793 is the primary reference number for this filter. 23582260 appears as a second Volvo-side reference covering the same element, which is normal when a part is superseded or carried under a revised packaging number during a model year. Both point to the same physical filter in the same housing.
J01.207 is a supplier-catalog number for the same element. Filter manufacturers assign their own part numbering independent of the truck builder, so one filter can carry a truck-maker number and a filter-maker number at the same time. Neither number changes the media, the frame, or the outside dimensions.
Those numbers are listed here for identification only. PartStop is an aftermarket seller and is not affiliated with or authorized by Volvo. Use the cross-reference as a starting point, then confirm against the number printed on the frame of the filter you pull out, or verify by VIN.
Before You Order
Pull the old element and read the frame. Cabin filters get printed with the part number on the end tab, and that number beats any catalog lookup. If the tab is torn or the print is soaked out, measure the element and compare the frame depth and pleat direction before you commit.
Check the housing while it is open. Leaf litter, wasp nests, and packed pine needles above the filter will choke a brand-new element in a month. Vacuum the plenum, check the cowl drain, and look at the evaporator fins with a light. If the fins are furred over, the filter was bypassing or overdue.
23567793 Cross-Reference & Interchange Numbers
These manufacturer and aftermarket numbers commonly cross-reference to 23567793. Use them to identify the part — then confirm the exact fit by VIN or the number stamped on your old unit before you order. An interchange is a starting point, not a fitment guarantee.

Frequently asked questions
Is 23582260 the same filter as 23567793?
They cross to the same cabin air filter for the 2024-2025 VNL and VNR. Numbers like this usually differ because of a supersession or a packaging revision rather than a change to the element itself. Confirm by comparing the number on the filter you remove before ordering.
How often should I replace the cabin filter on a VNL?
It depends on where the truck runs. Highway miles in clean air stretch the interval; construction sites, gravel yards, and heavy urban idling shorten it hard. A practical check is to pull it at every PM and hold it up to a light. If you cannot see light through the pleats, replace it.
Do I need tools to change it?
Usually no. The housing on these cabs is designed for a hand-access swap, so you locate the cover, release it, slide the old element out, and slide the new one in with the airflow arrow facing the same direction as the old one. Make sure the cover latches fully so the filter seals.
