Default Pollen Filter
As my car is two years old now, I decided to change my pollen filter amongst other things.

I was quite suprised when the Honda garage told me that they never change them on S2000's due to the cost of them.

Here is a picture of my pollen filter against a new one, my car has done ~28k.



Get out there and check yours, i'll be changing mine yearly from now on.

For Info - They cost around

Well the blackened filter looks, well "black", however I assume it still works so, why replace it?

Legionnaires disease loves aircon systems and ventaltion systems, seems like a good enough reason to not let it gunk up and start growing all kinds of bacteria etc.
