How to Replace the Air Filter in the Fiat Panda

Model: Fiat Panda 169, MK 2 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Air filter

Replacing the air filter is one of the simplest yet most important operations to perform on your car. It takes only a few minutes to complete and can easily be done independently. If you do not know how to do it, follow this guide and you will have no problems. First, lift the front bonnet and then, using a 7-millimetre spanner, unscrew the three screws located at the top of the plastic engine cover. Remove the cover, and right underneath, you will have access to the used air filter. Replace it with a new one, and finally, correctly reposition the cover by screwing in the previously removed screws. When finished, lower the bonnet.
