How to replace the pollen filter in a Chevrolet Captiva? Open the glove compartment (right side of the dashboard) and undo the securing screws of the plastic (located at the sides of the drawer), rotate the glove compartment forward and pull it out of its housing.

Remove the cover plate acting as a cap and pull the air filter out of its housing as shown in the video.

Once this operation is complete, insert the new air filter into the filter holder (be careful to insert the filter correctly without bending it). Finally, reattach the cap of the box and all components of the glove compartment as they were removed previously.
