Pollen filter in a favorit not fitted with one

Featured Replies

Is it possible to fit a pollen filter to a favorit GLXIe 94 that is not fitted with a pollen filter. Lots of pollen comes through the blowers.

Thanks in advance.

Interesting.

AFAIK no Favorit had a pollen filter as standard. Ok, bad news out the way.

A pollen filter is normally just a "flat panel" type air filter element, fitted into a specially shaped piece of ducting with a cover on it for replacement, so it's possible in principle, but will need you to find a suitable sized and shaped piece of ductwork from another make and model.

Possibly a Felicia could donate some parts here...? :rubchin:

The air intake for the ventilation on the Favorit is throught the long thin vent on the bonnet, which goes straight into the air box just underneath it. I don't think its possible to adapt it to accomodate a pollen filter, not easily atleast... :(

bit of insulation - even a thin bit of foam over the fan intake works on a felicia.. but it is prone to getting wet, so then it wont flow very well and may get mouldy.

Is there any sort of "common distribution trunking" between the heater/fan box outlet and a multi-way splitter unit that feeds the in-car vents on the Felicia?

It used to be possible to get a genuine pollen filter for the Felicia from the dealers, as long as you you were prepared to stand there long enough arguing with them when they tell you that "The Felicia never had a pollen filter, sir!" (I eventually had to drag the service manager out to my car and dismantle the intake - top just unclips - to show him:rolleyes: ). I don't know whether it's still available but you'd have to ask at a Skoda dealer (no chance at GSF or Eurocarparts) and tell them to look it up in the Accessories catalogue, not the parts catalogue. Whether or not it will fit a Favorit I can't tell as I've never owned one and don't know if the trunking is the same.

Thanks bmjb99. There's one mentioned in the favorit catalogue from JHM Buttco so maybe one does exist :)
