the activated charcoal ones seem to cut the stench of diesel and others down nicely as well as pollen etc
Ah that seems a pretty good price for a genuine one, will probably do that thanks

I've never heard of a washable pollen filter, although it's only filtering the same air as the engine does the cabin filters always seem to be 'throw away' perhaps it's more to do with bacteria prevention.
Yeah they do exist - https://www.knfilters.com/cabin-air-filters

I could only find ones for Volvo lorries listed on their website though so maybe they don't make them for our cars?
