Pollen Filter

[BobHolmes328]

Hi all,


I have a 2005 1.2 automatic Micra and I cannot find the pollen filter. I have the glove box removed and cannot see any form or sight of a anything to do with a unit that can unclip from anywhere and nothing listed in the owner’s manual. Can anyone help me please.

Thanks for the feedback plmval, the video shows this for a left hand drive car and mine is a right hand drive, I am not sure if that is important. I looked at both sides of the heater housing at the place the video shows and neither has any kind of detachable cover similar to that in the video. As my car has no air con, I wonder if there are Micra’s without pollen filters?. I have changed pollen filters in the past on all sorts of cars but this one has got me beat and I makes me think if it does have one, any help please would be great.

Paper Filter Chase?

Further research suggests not all k12 models had pollen filters O/E and also some may have been removed by previous owners?

Great links plmval thank you.

Looking at the pictures in some of the links I now know my K12 does not have a pollen filter, the plastic moulding clearly shows the space a pollen filter would fit if the recessed hole had not been filled in by plastic when it was formed.

Having just bought the car last Friday including all the old invoices, I thought there was one as the last garage has been charging the previous owner for it.

This is the sole reason I service my cars.

I call it the “Sun Service”
On handover they ask you if there are any problems, if not and the oil is clean on the dipstick, they park it in the yard for a day and invoice you for a Full (Sun) Service.
