How to remove and replace the engine air filter on a Citroen C3? Open the car door, pull up the engine compartment release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, and lift the front bonnet, securing it with the rod. Remove the engine soundproofing panel (if present), then open the air kit (unscrew the fastening screws), remove the cover of the filter box, and extract the worn air filter.

Insert a new filter into the designated housing (ensuring it fits snugly against the plastic walls).

Finally, reattach the cover of the air box and tighten the screws. Close the front bonnet after maintenance.
