It is. The black sealing foam covers the doors used to direct air flow, and
over time it deteriorates to the point where it just falls off and into the
airstream.

VW's are notorious for this. My Jetta has working AC, well the compressor turns

Not too sure about this, but if it does, it's slow. Potters use shellac to

I agree. I ride a motorcycle and I saw that coming way early. One has to pay attention.
I agree to some extent. It appears to me that the driver actually moved
to the left a bit and it might have been better to go to the right.
However, there is always a reaction time and at 60 or 70 mph there is
not a whole lot of time to decide. I think the camera makes it a bit
deceptive. We

124: You only remove the trim and drain coverings for the air intake on

The wiper assembly stays in place.

You were making it sound like the replacement of the activated charcoal filter
in the W140. The requires removal of the cowl and wiper along with a vacuum

Fortunately this filter doesn't require regular replacement, not to mention
it's something like $300.
No. Go to the cheapest one nearby.
