How to Replace the Pollen Filter on a Volkswagen Up

Model: Volkswagen Up MK 1 - Years 2011-2024
Part: Cabin air filter

How do you replace the pollen filter in the cabin of a Volkswagen Up? Follow these steps: open the door and locate the filter housing under the dashboard (right side). Using a plastic lever, detach the cover on the side of the dashboard. Inside the compartment, you will find the filter holder; pull it out from its housing. Take a new air filter and insert it into the filter holder, ensuring it fits snugly around the walls of the box. Finally, reattach the cover of the filter box. Check the correct assembly of the previously removed parts.
