2002 SAAB 93 2.3 turbo petrol, pollen filter fitted where?

I am a vehicle tech and just recently carried out a service on the above and along with the service kit was given a pollen filter. I checked all the usual places without any success, so decided to phone local saab branch who tells me its under glove box nsf, they openly admitted to not changing them because it involved de-gassing the air con and removing the glove box and removing the pipes from around the matrix which i did, guess what, NO pollen filter there. Any ideas where? Any help would be appreciated

    Can't believe they told you that!

    Take off both windscreen wipers, remove the scuttle trim(you have to disconnect the washer tube on the nearside)then remove the black plastic water tray. You will then see the pollen filter! Takes about 10 mins to change.

    to attempt oil rigidity and best the swifter, disconnect gas cutoff of the fuse to disable the engine from beginning. With stable battery, crank the engine and watch the oil easy bypass off. you have now placed an astounding sort of oil during the complete engine oil equipment. be sure you have replaced the motor oil & filter out, using guy made oil. swifter disasters at the instant are not ordinary on saab, so make constructive the oil easy is going off interior of approximately 20 seconds of cranking. If the sunshine does no longer bypass off after cranking for 30-40 5 sec, you will have low oil rigidity and your newly put in swifter will fail precise away. to bathe out the inter-cooler, eliminate the inlet and outlet pipes. Use engine degreaser or diesel gas to bathe the excess oil. no would desire to eliminate the cooler.

    That is where it should have been, If it is not new then someone may have removed the old one.
