Assuming there is one, I'm thinking about having a go a changing the pollen filter. Without success, I had a look on ePER to see where it's located. I'm assuming it's down behind the front dash console up near the bulkhead in one of the foot wells.
If anybody as done this job any confirmation on where it's located and any pointers regarding removal of the filter will be gratefully appreciated.

Think its only fitted on models with air con.

Hi Pedro,

If you were to kneel on the ground next to the passenger seat and look underneath the glovebox slightly to the right of the line of the glovebox handle you should see a black plastic casing with two screw heads protruding. It appears to be running slightly diagonally and I can't remember if they are philips or torx but I think that's what you are after.

Thanks Peter, I'll have a search. Seen the replacement filters on ebay for around the £6 mark so worth doing and not bank breaking.

Pedro is spot on there, its an easy job & well worth doing for a small outlay. Have a vacuum ready, chances are you will find all manner of dried grass & feathers around the old filter,,, mind you that's country living! Lol.

Peter (TD5) was spot on - local factors had a filter in stock (£5.26 inc. VAT)
Because it was bucketing down, done it from inside the cabin. Moved the 2 front seats as far back as possible, put it in reverse gear and let the hand brake off (didn't want it digging in my back). From the drivers side, lent across into the passenger footwell, hanging upside down and with the aid of a torch, found the 2 silver philips screw heads straight away. Undone and the cover comes straight off. Filter pulls straight out but worth taking a note of what way round it is. Your looking for the air flow direction as marked on the filters. Replacement filter in, cover reattached and job done - all in 10 minutes.
As it happens, my original wasn't in to bad a condition. Did it because I know a wet pollen filter doesn't help with condensation and windows misting up inside the car. With the damp weather conditions of late, I'd noticed mine was getting quite alot of in cabin condensation. No obvious water ingress anywhere and the footwells are dry so that would rule out heater matrix problems. I guess it's down to the large window areas in the Doblo and when it doesn't get used very often, the damp in cabin conditions can accumulate. Guess the answer is to use it more often.
