Let's see how to replace the engine air filter on an Audi A6. Open the car door, pull up the hood release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, and lift the hood. Secure it with the prop rod. Remove the engine air intake hose, then open the air box (unscrew the retaining screws if present), remove the cover of the filter box, and take out the worn air filter.
