lazyb5 Posted June 24, 2006 Report Posted June 24, 2006 Hi alli`m one and a half hours into a changing the pollen filter ,yes i know it shouldnt take that long but my windscreen wipers were starting to slow down so i`ve stripped that out at the same time. Just having Bacon sarnie so thought i`d just pen a note to all with a 02 gal. Once i got the bulkhead extension off and the windscreen wiper motor and gubbins out i couldnt believe the amount of muck and rubbish under there :o The scuttles appeared to be partially blocked as the water was sitting just under the pollen filter,you do not want to know what state that was in :D Anyway pollen filter change dead easy, greasing of wiper system little more difficult but why was it designed like this in the first place :D So if you have got an 02 gal and have never explored under the windscreen i would give it a go even if all you do is stick the vax in there to suck the muck out. Ohh and dont forget to take the water out of the top of the suspension points and grease them whilst your there. Beats shopping on a saturday anyway ;) Quote
Ivor_E_Tower Posted June 25, 2006 Report Posted June 25, 2006 Did you take the wipers off their arms to remove the plastic trim from around the base of the windscreen, or are you doing this work from under the bonnet? Quote
