Thank you for sharing

Where did you get those stickers on the "false" buttons (use rockets, ejection seat)? Love them! 😂

I'm sorry but for a service item the positioning of these filters is moronic at best. Well done Citroen - now spend some money on ergonomics lessons for your designers! Anyway finally got the job done but it's a LOT easier (for RHD cars) if you first remove the white plastic air channel that's in your way. There's a clip top front of the part. Press that in and wiggle the channel off its seating (takes a bit of brute force but you won't ruin the part). Once that's off you'll have a bit more clearance to tackle the pollen filters. Note that the lower dash tray bolt is a Torx 20 and the lower clip on the right (holding the dash to the carpet) is threaded but mine was knackered so I just pulled it up with a regular trim tool - went back on ok.

Hi Paul, Nice to see someone showing a steady stream of how to do this, I’ve a MGF 1600 on a 2001 plate just 47000 on her and doing most things myself. Please any more tips and videos are appreciated , Nigel.

Oh mate thats amazing! Thanks so much. Just back from the garage, was prepared to order a steering column from eBay and get it fitted. Decided to do a bit of googling, and found the instructions (from 2009 so they were missing the diaghrams and images...). Thought to myself that surely someone has done a KZbin video about that and there it is! Looking forward to trying the fix later this week! Will post back how it went.

Brilliant that! Cheers bud ill get mine done

Thank you for the video, I wouldn’t find it without it. The whole process requires 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤌🤌🤌🤌🤌🤣🤣

Excellent video my garage has been billing me for years on pollen filter changed just watching I changed mine opened it found only 1 and it was black not even grey so I'm thinking that they've never changed it since I got the car 12 years ago

Just done this again today, lying across the seats head in the footwell, I don't enjoy doing it tbh.

Dreadful design. I won't be changing mine until I get asphyxiated. Otherwise C4 Picasso is no trouble and cheap motoring, though there are horror stories around the automatics of this era.

What year is your Citroen? 👍

What a crap pla e to put them

Thank you soo much ever soo helpful whilst your working on a customers car and can’t find it

Thanks for the video... quick question, was there any error code on the dashboard before the fix?

Well… that was a cunt 😂 thanks for the video! Not looking forward to next year!

Thanks for this great how to video. Very helpful. Thanks, Vinny. :-)

Thanks for this tip Paul. i`ve just bought an MGF 75th Anniversary and the steering wheel is doing exactly this. The previous owner had been told by a garage that the problem was due to crash damage , but I couldn`t find any evidence at all of crash damage and so doubted the diagnosis. Now I know exactly what is causing the problem and how to repair it. Many thanks - Ian

cheers paul .. wicked

All "how to" videos should be like this. I didn't even know where the pollen filter was until I watched this. Thanks Paul!. :)

I don't quite get why the tippex there ? It should mark the initial position of the sensor relative to its support or am I missing something ?

Thanks for the vid, it worked perfectly, greetings from Belgium.

Thanks Paul. I had exactly the same fault and it was fixed inside an hour. I removed the entire fusebox for more space. The torx tool tip is essential and I would have wasted ages working it out.

Thanks for taking the time to show how it's done. Life saver

Cheers mate, that's come in well handy as I had no clue where the filters were located other than they had to be in the dash area somewhere. Mine is left hand drive so it was a lot easier without the column in the way. Thanks again

Paul, thank you big time. Just did this trick on my F and it works fine now! Lucas

Thank you, that was really helpful :) .. did you notice any difference with the heating/cooling fans after changing the filters?

thanks a lot !

Quick update - Over 12 months later and the steering is absolutely fine still 👍

good job. how many hours did you put in?

Cheers for this, I'll have a go at mine, not been changed for 10+ years so expecting a skipful of crud... : )

Hie, can you help me with more explications please what you do exactly to thonse screws and what is that orange glue? And what should i do exactly pls write on my reply i dont understand english perfectly,this is my dream car i bought 10 years and never get bored but now the steering is a little bit hard and i dont find the fuse and dont know what to do exaclty pls help me!

I wonder what is involved to do power steering delete. The f and tf are surely light enough to be use able without it

really good video i could not see how 2 fitted in till you showed how its done thanks

Bet you didn't think this would be helping out people 4 years later!... Thanks mate, helped a lot to visualise it before i do this. Off to order filters now! thanks again.

Nice little vid , off the cuff and a good result.

Brilliant video. It was tricky getting them both out. But I used needle nose pliers and it was so much easier. Just don't pull to hard with the pliers because the filters are fragile and could wrip

Could this be the reason for our anti pollution filter faulty light coming on thanks

Thank you for video l have done it now it was not easy really . Citroën filters and service replacement really hard.

Thanks for the video. As other people say this is a bit of pain and is unnecessarily complicated and time consuming. One other tip; take your time replacing the new filters. If they start to bend or loose their shape, then it takes three times as long to get them in.

Great video, just changed my filters following it, very useful thanks!

I have this car, I tried to do this the other day. I have to say that the designers at Citroen must have been high on crack when they designed this. It's extremely difficult to change. On my last car, a Vauxhall Vectra, all I had to do was open the bonnet, pull away a rubber seal, open a plastic flap and unclip the pollen filter.

Good tips. Worked well.

Thanks! This video helped a lot. Some service dudes had managed to lose that black vent but it seems to work well enough without it. Ps. Luckily I didn't have that steering column in the way.

Hpefully for left side driving cars, no steering column and no pedals... a bit more easier !

Thank you Paul - I really appreciate that you've taken the time to make this and it will help me so much as there isn't much else that mentions this job. The garages always insist it's part of the regular service but it clearly isn't. A very well presented guide.

There are 2 filters therein, how do you place the second one inside? Since they are next to each other, is there a passengers or opposite to drivers side that you can access the second one? Or is it the only side were the filters are located? I managed to remove both and second one with pliers, however placing the second new one in, seems to be not technologicaly meant to be via this opening.

Great video. Really useful and a lot cheaper than getting a garage to sort out

Could this be the reason the anti pollen system failure warning has come on ?

thanks for the video lad, great job and very very handy.

Many thanks for this video!! Really helped me change mine.
