How to Replace the Air Filter on an Alfa Romeo 147

Model: Alfa Romeo 147 MK 1 - Years 2000-2010
Part: Air filter

Keeping the engine air filter clean is important for the engine to always draw the correct airflow and to prevent debris from causing damage. On this model, the air filter is positioned somewhat unusually: the filter box is installed vertically near the left front headlamp (driver's side). To replace it, first disconnect the hose above where the mass airflow sensor is located. Then unclip the springs securing the cover, remove the old filter, clean any dirt residue, and insert the new one.
