As title says soon as I put the heating on I gets real nasty stale smell anyone had similar

Probably need the pollen filter changing

Right ok I'm a new owner so all new to me are they easy to change or is that another pain in the arse job also best place to get a filter

Easy to change follow this to step 3 - when at step three you'll have the pollen filter in front of you (held in by one screw or none if the last person was lazy)!
Exploded photo at stage three and you'll see his pollen filter partially removed

The filter is the bit above the plastic with two hooks - this bit plastic slides off the hook supports and the filter can be removed.
TPS is worth checking for a price.
