Audi A3 - Video tutorial

Model: Audi A3 MK 2, 8P - Years 2003-2013
Part: Diesel filter
Operation: How to remove the diesel filter present on Audi A3

Let's see how to remove the diesel filter present on Audi A3: lift the front hood (engine) and put it in safety, we identify the diesel filter. With a screwdriver (Torx inserts) we unscrew the locking pins (we can also use a socket wrench) placed near the container where the diesel filter is located. Once the filter has been removed: remove the engine soundproofing panel and extract (the filter) from the car (replace it with a new filter). Finally we reassemble the filter to the attached container of the diesel filter (we connect pipes and cables) and tighten the appropriate pins. We close the front hood at the end of the replacement.

How do you adjust the clutch cable on the Kia Picanto?

To be able to adjust the clutch cable of the Kia Picanto you need to open the hood so that you have access to the components inside the engine compartment: in order to reach the cable you will need to remove some components on the right side, such as the battery and the air filter. Below them you will find the clutch cable, which will have to be adjusted by screwing or loosening the bolt placed at the end of the cable. This will make the pedal harder or softer; after the adjustment, it will be possible to assemble all the components by closing the hood.
