Let’s see how to remove the air filter from 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 prop. Remove the engine ventilation hose, then open the air kit (unscrew the fastening screws), uncover the filter box cap, and extract the worn air filter.

Insert a new filter into the designated housing (ensuring it fits snugly around the edges). Finally, refit the air box cap and tighten the screws.

Close the front bonnet after reassembly.
