I fitted an after market pollen filter.  Whilstles like a bugger.  Need to get an oe one now. Where'd you order it from. CC is easy to install.

From Skoda parts http://www.skodaparts.com/ they did my cam belt kit with a massive discount as well.

 

To change the filter from the passenger side (look up under the glove box near centre of dash) RHD cars.

Slide the 2 retainers back release and pull down then pull down filter (its in a frame) the frame only fits one way note the way its all fitted and the way the filter sits in the frame  before taking it out and note the cutout.

I had to shorten the new filter to fit  in to the frame ( Stanley knife )and make sure the ends of the filter go betwen the 2 plastic runners on the frame .

When putting the frame back in to the heater box the check seals are the right way round and the clip for the cut out is on the bottom (goes in last ) otherwise it will whistle .A 10min job.
