Good point on the pollen filters. A good few years ago now the company I worked for had a pair of Merc Sprinter vans.
They did not have aircon. However the heaters were rubbish. Every time they went in for service we always asked the garage to check the heaters. Every time they said they found nothing wrong.
One day the lads had had enough of freezing and said you play around with old cars see if you can sort the heaters!
Upon close inspection I noticed a Velcro secured area of sound deadening on the firewall. Upon removing this there was a removable plastic cover into the air duct system. And there was a pollen filter, totally clogged!
Never seen a pollen filter with out aircon before.
A very overlooked item.
