How to Remove the Cabin Filter on a Citroen C3

Model: Citroen C3 FC, FN - Years 2002-2009
Part: Cabin air filter

How to remove the cabin filter on a Citroen C3? Follow these steps. Use a plastic lever to detach the trim located in the engine bay (bottom of the windscreen). Get a screwdriver (or battery drill), remove the securing screws that hold the filter container trim. Extract the worn cabin filter; insert a new cabin filter ensuring it fits snugly around the walls of the housing, refit the filter housing cover and tighten the screws (cover everything with the plastics under the dashboard). Check the correct assembly of the previously fitted parts.
