How do I replace the BWM Series 1 air filter?

Model: BMW Serie 1 E82, E81, E87, MK 1 - Years 2004-2013
Part: Air filter

In order to replace the BMW 1 Series air filter, you have to open the hood so that you have access to the components inside the engine compartment: the air filter will be located on the left side of the latter. It will be accessible by loosening the screws that secure the cover and the air duct; once the cover has been removed, it will be possible to remove the air filter from inside its housing so that it can be replaced with a new spare part. After replacement it will be possible to re-attach the cover and the duct.
