Pollen Filter Replacement

[8953lewis]

Hi all

I have a 57 plate 2.8 crd & want to change the pollen filter inside the cabin. I know where the filter is & how to remove it but the problem I have is replacing the old filter with a new one. Which filterbis the right one? I have measured the old filter but on eBay & Euro parts the filter they say fits is a different size someone please help me. The size fitted is 301 x 200 x 23 the one they all say fits is 308 x 236 x 23.

Hi, the measurements are in millimetres so I doubt it won't fit, unless it comes with a plastic frame but again I doubt that. The old filter is like an accordion?, if yes the second measure it won't matter much as you push it together when inserted.

 

Hope it helps.

I replaced my pollen filter with a Crosland Cabin Filter from Euro Car Parts (about 30 quid). The replacement was slightly too wide, but a simple straight cut from top to bottom, slightly narrower than the required width, followed by sliding the right cut folds into the left cut and it slid up into the pollen filter holder in the passenger foot well (UK version right hand drive) like a glove. Keep your old original filter as a width guide for future fittings.

 

Cheaper versions can be found on the top auction website people shop on... 

 

Best wishes,
