Has anyone actually tried to replace the pollen filter in a Mk 2 Focus? It is situated behind the dashboard on this model. The Haynes manual says you have to remove the glove box for access.
I have just had this car serviced by a Ford main dealer and was charged for a new pollen (odour) filter. However, I am certain the glove box has not been removed, so am wondering if the filter has actually been changed. Access seems pretty difficult, even with the glove box removed, but have Ford found a different way of doing it, or have I been conned?
I did try to see if the filter element is new, but chickened out when I saw all the wiring and fuse box and connections which have to be disturbed.
Can a mod please move this to Technical.
