Do we have any pics of where the pollen filter is and how to replace it . might be usefull if alot of people are getting the same probs. agreed that silica bags shouldn't be needed . with the cold and wet weather on the way might be a good idea to fit rubber mats too as the carpet ones hold the damp

Not mine, but shows you what you want to know...  :happy2:

Changing the pollen filter on the MK5 VW Jetta/Golf

You should be able to remove the foam without undoing the 3 torx screws, so no tools needed really!

For anyone thinking of changing the pollen filter, just remember that you can upgrade to a charcoal pollen filter, which is supposed to be better at filtering out the smell of fuel from outside etc.

Not sure if you should advise your insurance company of this particular upgrade  :evilgrin:
