Let's see how to replace the diesel filter on a Citroën C3. Open the car door and pull up the engine compartment release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, lift the bonnet and secure it. Remove the ventilation hose; using a socket spanner, unscrew the securing pins on the container (disconnect the cables and various hoses from the filter) where the diesel filter is located.

Extract the diesel filter holder and remove the worn filter (replace it with a new one). Finally, reassemble the diesel filter container (connect hoses and cables) and tighten the screws.

Close the bonnet after replacement.
