    Has anyone had the pleasure of doing one of these?I can find nothing online about changing one of these.I believe its up under the centre console in the footwell.I see someone mentioned having to move the clutch pedal in a manual,but this car is an auto.Anyone!

    It's a pig of a job and involves unbolting the clutch pedal to gain access.

    I thought as much George!The car is an auto so I have my fingers crossed I can get at it without having to move/remove the brake pedal.

    Jaysus they don't make it easy. The cabin filter is simple to change in my 99 yaris.

    Renault never made anything easy - GF's old 2005 Megane required the front wheel to be removed to change a headlight bulb - even then you needed small Trump like hands to complete the job.

    Really? Assuming it's the same set up as a Qashqai (could be totally wrong) you just need to move a bit of the loom out of the way and unclip one cable.
    I'd love to see a picture of the area if anyone happens to know of one. :D

    Thought the Qashai was ****e to do at first but now it's actaully one of the handiest... after doing about 300 of them.

    Hard to believe the difference a new pollen filter can make.
