Pollen Air filter
« on: 04 January 2009, 10:29:10 »

Just about to change the pollen air filter under the r the passager side wiper on the top it has "AIR FLOW" and two arrows, just to check which way the arrows should be pointing or if it matters any.

Thanks
Steve

Air flow heading into the car, so arrows pointing towards windscreen :y

Errhmm.....are you sure?
I fitted mine with the arrow pointing away from the windscreen and the text the right way up. Is the air not being sucked into the car from the grill below the wiper towards the AC unit?

the air is being drawn up through the filter into the car, the grille below wiper feeds the well that collects leaves ;)

think yours is wrong way HCG :-/

You are absolutely right HE & Alex - paper tissue test proved it - my logic is flawed. Thanks. ::)
