Part: Air filter

Engine air filter to be replaced? Let's see how to proceed with the replacement. We open the car door, pull up the engine compartment opening lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard and lift up the front hood, we secure the same with the rod. We remove the soundproofing panel of the engine, then, we detach the aeration pipe and open the air kit (unscrew the tightening screws), we uncover the cap of the filter box and extract the worn air filter. We insert a new filter in the dedicated housing (making it adhere well around the walls). Finally we reassemble the cap of the air box and tighten the screws. We connect the air hose.
