I have a 1994 850 and the air flow from the cabin vents just isn't what it used to be. Even on high it doesn't blow too hard. I was told it could be due to a clogged cabin air filter. Any idea where this filter is and how would i change it?
Thank You All

hi,
It's under the hood, just below the passenger side winshield wiper. There's a big plastic panel with some screws holding it in place. remove the screws and pop the top lifts up to access the filter.
cheers,
Pat

OMG :haha:

What if irishflyer doesn't know where the fuse box is either and into the bargain doesn't even have a clue what a fuse looks like? We may have confused him even more! :grin: :grin:

Thank you all for your help and well wishes. Its great to have this forum and i shall visit often.
It appears that the cabin filter did not come as a stock item in my 850. My guess that my air flow problem may be due to the evaporator.
That is quite an extensive repair from what i have seen.
Cheers all!
