What This Product Does:

• This screw secures the pollen filter housing cover.
  
• It ensures the cover remains firmly attached, aligns properly, prevents vibration or loosening, and maintains cosmetic appearance and protection from water/dirt ingress.

When Replacement Might Be Needed:

• The original screw is missing, damaged, or has the head stripped — this can happen during removal of the cover or during servicing 
  
• The cover is loose, rattling or misaligned — sometimes a missing or incorrect screw is the cause of panel movement or cover vibration.
• The screw shows corrosion or wear — old screws may degrade.

Why Replacement Matters:

• Proper fit and torque: The correct length, head style and thread match ensures the cover is secured properly without risk of over-penetration, cross-threading or insufficient grip.
