Replacing the air filter on BMW 3 Series

Model: BMW Serie 3 E92, E90, E91 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Air filter

Let's see how to remove and replace the engine air filter of a BMW 3 Series. We open the car door, pull up the engine compartment opening lever at the bottom left of the dashboard and lift up the front hood, we secure the same with the auction. Remove the engine soundproofing panel (detach it from both sides), then, open the air kit (unscrew the container fastening screws), uncover the filter box cap 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 close the front hood at the end of the maintenance.
