Changing the pollen filter in your car is very important as it protects against external agents entering the cabin and helps the vehicle's ventilation system breathe better. It is also crucial to replace it at regular intervals, as it preserves the health of the driver and passengers and prevents dangerous fogging of the car windows.

It is advisable to replace the filter every 10,000 miles or once a year. There are affordable and good quality filters available.

The filter to be replaced is usually located under the glove compartment.
