To replace the engine air filter in a Ford Fiesta, open the bonnet and locate the air filter box connected to the engine's intake duct. Unscrew the screws or unclip the clips securing the cover of the housing and lift it carefully.

Remove the used filter and check that there is no dust or debris inside the box. Clean the seat with a dry cloth. Insert the new filter, ensuring it is positioned and oriented the same as the one removed, making sure it is seated properly all around.

Refit the cover and tighten the screws or reclip the fasteners. Finally, check that all connections in the intake system are correct before closing the bonnet.
