Replacing the Engine Air Filter

Model: Citroen C3 Picasso MK 1 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Cabin air filter

Open the bonnet and locate the air filter housing on the left side of the engine. Disconnect the air intake hose and then remove the housing by unfastening it from the support. Remove the cover by unscrewing the two retaining screws. Pull out the old filter and insert a new one. Before inserting the new filter, clean the inside of the housing from any dust deposits. Carefully close the air box, ensuring it fits perfectly with the cover. Reattach the flexible hose. Start the engine and check for proper operation.
