Replacing the Cabin Air Filter

Model: Citroen Xsara Picasso MK 1 - Years 1999-2012
Part: Cabin air filter

How to do it? The cost for the replacement is minimal, and the operations to replace it are simple. The filter is located in the engine bay under the windscreen. To access it, remove the three clips securing the cover, which can be done by hand. Once the filter cover is removed, take out the cartridge from its housing by pulling it out carefully to avoid dust dispersal. Obtain a pollen filter of the same model identical to the original. Clean the housing from any dirt. Refit the new cartridge into the container, ensuring it is positioned correctly, and close the cover with the clips.
