Changing the pollen filter in your car is very important as it protects against external agents that can enter the cabin. This filter should be replaced at regular intervals.

It is advisable to change it once a year or every 10,000 miles. With the vehicle registration document, you can visit a parts dealer who will definitely be able to indicate the most suitable one to purchase.

The replacement operation can be completed in about fifteen minutes. You can find the filter beneath the glove compartment.

Once you locate it, simply pull it towards yourself with your thumb and it will come out.
