Fellow Stagea owners! How the hell do I change the Cabin Pollen filter element in an M35 Stagea?

By the looks of it, a ball breaking task and passenger bottom section of the dash/ glove compartment must be all removed.

All info appreciated....

A quick search for "pollen filter" and I found this thread - Air Con Filter . The last page has a link to an awesome step by step instruction with photos put together by "bangahh".

I hope this helps.

Cheers

Ball breaking? Hardly! Looks harder than it really is!

Pull the glovebox off, and then open the white horizontal door. Just be REALLY REALLY careful, as it's very easy to break the white tab on the door.

Pretty quick, easy job, but the first time you pull it all apart it looks like it'll take hours!

Good luck, and DON'T BREAK THE TAB! :cheers:

Like I did...

I havent got to doing this on my PM35 yet, but when it had a flat battery a while ago, I could of sworn that I saw the filter once I took the battery out from inside the engine bay!

You may not be able to take it out this way but I could definately see it.

That was only a matter of 6 or so clips and then remove the battery to expose it.

Just my 2c worth, (or should I round it to 5c seeing you cant get 2c anymore :teehee: )

Yep, thats it. Thats how I found out mine was dirty. I don't think you can get it out/ in from there without crushing it and therefore destroying its filtering qualities, but its an easy way to check its condition.

you MUST remove it from inside the car

remove glovebox. its 6 screws.

open white cover, remove filter.

replace with new filter, hold filter 'up' while you close the white door so you dont crush the new filter.

replace glovebox

10 mins later have a beer

And don't forget the 2 pieces of foam strip on the sides of the filter so it actually makes the air go through the filter. I was just about to put it back together when I thought I'd read the instructions... :P

      Never ending fuel pump drama

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      The price isn't the issue, it's how hard my fuel pump is to remove now. I fabricated a custom bracket so my pump sits on the very bottom of the tank (I ran the tank down to 5L remaining to test it, works well). But it is a fkn NIGHTMARE to get the pump down into the tank now =/ words can't describe how much I hate fighting with the fuel pump/hanger now. The other issue is reliability, I'm driving down for WTA in a couple of months, I'd be less then impressed if I was half way to Sydney from Brisbane and my pump fails again =/ The other issue I had was my car battery was slowly failing, with low battery voltage my fuel pump couldn't keep up with what the reg was asking from it. I've replaced the battery and my fuel pressure is back to being perfect.  As for the low voltage situation that killed my previous battery, I've got a 150amp alternator sitting on my desk waiting to go in. Fingers crossed that will sort that issue.

      OK so I just bidded $500 on an R33 GTS4 that no one seems to want. Waiting on a call from the agent to see if I won. 32 GTS4 is for sale. I can't deal with the temptation to mod it.

      Might be there for work later in the year. Wouldn't mind catching up with you fellas - can't have too many beers, but will consume copious amounts of takoyaki while executing an asian squat on the side of the road while you blokes sort out your hangovers.

      I know one example is a anecdote not data, but I'm running the same Aeroflow 525 at full voltage through a regular relay, and while I've had other fuel problems including melting the factory fuel hat, the pump itself has been fine for years. Of course, they aren't *that* expensive these days, you could swap in a new one and see if the issue is resolve. I think you had a previous thread about fuel problems, have you been monitoring and logging fuel pressure? Is there anything voltage related (for example does the voltage go up when the pressure goes down)
