Help Identifying the Correct Pollen Filter for Citroën C4 Cactus 2018 (Restyled Version)

Unread post by Northern »

Hey everyone,
I need some help identifying the correct pollen filter for my Citroën C4 Cactus 2018 (the restyled version without the plastic side panels). When searching online, I found that the PSA part number 1609428080 is commonly listed, so I purchased it. However, I later realized that this part is for the pre-facelift model and is not compatible with my car.
The issue is that this part number includes two filter pieces, whereas when I attempted to replace the pollen filter in my car, I found that it only has one filter (photo attached).
Could anyone help me identify the correct PSA part number for the pollen filter that fits my model? Additionally, if you know of any compatible aftermarket alternatives, I’d really appreciate your recommendations.
Thanks in advance!

That looks like the engine air filter to me?

The parts database doesn't show any difference on the pollen filter for later cars. Should be at back left hand side (as you look at it) of the engine bay.

On our Cactus the 2 part pollen filter is accessed by pulling out a triangular plastic panel at the left side below the windscreen as you look at it. When you do this also check the windscreen washer pipe which can catch the wiper linkage and wear through. As pointed out, you have shown the engine air filter.
