How to replace the air filter on a Ford Fiesta? Let's see how to carry out the removal of the part located in the engine compartment. Open the car door, pull up the engine compartment release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, and lift the front bonnet.

Remove the soundproofing panel of the engine (as shown in the video); open the air kit (unscrew the screws), remove the cover of the box, and extract the worn filter. Insert a new filter into the designated housing (ensuring it fits snugly around the walls).
