Learn how to change the engine air filter in a Ford Fiesta from inside the engine bay (front compartment). Open the car door, pull up the engine bay release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, and lift the front bonnet.

Secure it with the prop rod. Unscrew the screws securing the air filter cover: remove the cap from the filter box and take out the worn air filter. Insert a new filter into the container, ensuring it fits snugly against the walls.

After reassembly, lower and secure the front bonnet of the car.
