    Pollen Filter renewal - service

    whoa! just had my car in for its 2nd service (22,000 mls) and got quoted an additional £170 to change the pollen filter. Said no thks but I guess I will have to replace it at some point. The service itself was £400 which I thought was quite cheap but then again all they do pretty much is an oil change and dash reset!

    The pollen filter is up, behind and above the glove box. It requires a bit of time to get to and change out.

    Well worth it, though. Seems like the car stays a little less dusty with a new filter.

    I will be getting that filter replaced ASAP. Mine must be really dirty from inhaling so much dust from others, going off the track, making nuclear dust clouds.

    Remind me to not buy one of your secondhand cars ;-)
