Afternoon all,

I have a no A/C car which from the limited information I can see on the internet suggests I should have a pollen/cabin filter fitted. Realoem also lists a micro filter.

I am starting to get a lot of stuff blown in to my cabin from outside (small leaves etc which are currently everywhere in the air!) So either I'm thinking theres no filter fitted or mine has failed.

However I cant find any information online as to where it is or how to replace it! Can anyone help?

Thanks

One tip is to cover the inlet to the fan with an old stocking/tight.
Everyone has the right to reach the level of their own incompetence.
