In this video tutorial, see how to replace the pollen filter on a Citroen C1. The first step is to purchase a new pollen filter, as there are several available on the market. Get inside the car and switch off the engine, then pull the handbrake. On this vehicle, the filter is located under the glove compartment, so open the passenger side door, remove the protective cover found under the glove compartment, and then remove the pollen filter from its housing.
