How to remove the air filter on an Audi A6? Open the car door, pull up the engine hood release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, and lift the front hood, securing it with the prop rod. Remove the engine soundproofing panel and uncover the air box cap; extract the worn air filter (Disconnect the ventilation hose).

Insert a new filter into the designated housing (ensuring it fits snugly around the walls).
