pics as well just like one of those books that the baked bean people produce looks like this is on my list also 
Will get me a pollen filter and change it myself... my car does have aircon, just hope that the gas is all still in there! Do tend to run aircon most weekends for about 15-20 mins to help keep in shape. I dont miss 24-32 mpg though 
) and suspected it might be something to do with the controls - I'll have a squint at the pollen filter when the snow goes, not having a garage at home can be a hassle 
ABZSTILO said:Just picked up on this post as suffering from chilly feet in the car at the moment (worst possible time
Anyone know if any damage could be done to the system if I leave the pollen filter off?
Mind you, not a lot of pollen around at this time of year......Well that was pretty painless, cheers Keith
Here's the two plastic spring clips and the location of the Philips securing screw is underneath.
The cover then pushes off towards the front of the car
The filter is quite large, here it is just being pulled out. You need to rotate it vertical when it's half way out to get the clearance from the steering column.
Make a note how you did it so you can refit the same way
And here it is, filter absolutely plastered along with last autumn's entire leaf collection, a few odd shoes in the top corner (you know the odd ones you see on the road and wondered just where the other shoe gets to) and in the bottom right there is a dead motorcyclist I believe but I'm keeping quiet about that.
Don't think it had been touched in the life of the car. Quite a difference now in the heater vents air flow
