To replace the engine air filter on a Ford Fiesta, open the vehicle's bonnet and locate the air filter box at the top of the engine bay, connected to the intake pipe. Use a screwdriver or suitable socket to unscrew the screws on the cover or detach the retaining clips, depending on the engine version.

Then, lift the cover of the filter box and remove the old filter element. Before inserting the new filter, clean the inside of the box from any dust or dirt residues.

Position the new filter in the correct seat, paying attention to the mounting direction. Close the cover and tighten the screws or clips.

Finally, ensure everything is securely fastened and close the vehicle's bonnet.
