trigolf Posted July 20 Report Share Posted July 20 Morning all. I'm replacing the pollen filter in my wifes VW uP. I've also bought one of those a/c cleaners to clean and deodorise the air vents etc. It's the type that you set the a/c to recirculate, close windows and doors and 'set off' inside the car for 10 mins. Question - is it best to use the aerosol BEFORE I change the pollen filter ( which was only changed last year) or after???🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Lindsay Posted July 20 Report Share Posted July 20 I'd remove the pollen filter altogether, use the cleaner, then fit the new filter. No point in contaminating the new one with dirt from the vents but the old one may restrict the cleaner flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigolf Posted July 20 Author Report Share Posted July 20 That's what I was thinking Colin. I'll do that. Thanks. Gav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpitFire6 Posted July 20 Report Share Posted July 20 Hi, the AC should be set to recirc. No air will be pulled through the pollen filter so makes no difference if one is fitted or dirty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigolf Posted July 20 Author Report Share Posted July 20 Yep, when I thought about it, you're right - makes no difference. 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
