How to Replace the Cabin Filter on a Citroën C3?

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

To replace the cabin filter on a Citroën C3, open the bonnet to access the engine bay, specifically the grille located just below the windscreen. Here, on the passenger side, there will be a cover that can be removed by loosening the appropriate fixing screws: once this cover is removed, you can extract the cabin filter from its housing and replace it with a new spare part. After inserting the new filter, refit the cover and close the bonnet.
