It is also possible to do without disconnecting the battery or unplugging the CEM which prevents possible faults later.

Many thanks
I did this job today - possibly for the first time ever though it might have been done by the indy who did my 1 year service. Old filter wasn't quite as bad as I'd been expecting.
In spite of Welton's caveat in last para I disconnected battery then unplugged fusebox & removed it completely. Perhaps a bit soon to brag but I think everything is working again now that I've put it all back together.
One slight 'improvement' : when removing fusebox support bracket I used a 13mm box spanner as a standard socket just wasn't deep enough. No doubt a 'deep socket' would have been even better but I don't have one of them.
One problem with job was that I just couldn't fit both fusebox retaining screws. LH one was fine but RH one seemed to have a chewed up socket. I'm hoping that one will be sufficient.
Earlier in this thread, I mentioned that I thought my C-max pollen filter looked the right size. I can now confirm it's identical. Anyone wanting a new pollen filter might therefore find it in stock and cheaper at a Ford dealer rather than waiting for a Volvo dealer to order one.
