A question that blows

[Anonymous]

This may sound like an obvious question to some, but until I brought my Bravo, I had never encountered it.

Is it normal for leaves to come through the interior airvents? Should there not be some sort of filter?

My car gets in a right state inside after its been parked under Autumn trees.

If i'm not mistaken, the air is fed into the car under the wiper cowling?

I have a 96' HLX, no aircon.

Quite normal, and has happened on every car I have ever owned.

It can be reduced by not parking the car under, or very near to, tree's, especially in the autumn.

check under the black plastic cover by the front wiper blades where the Cabin filter should be it could be missing

But if its not there, it could also mean your car doesn't have one

Not all Bravo's have cabin filters.
