How to remove and insert the air filter on a Jeep Cherokee 4x4: open the car door, pull up the engine compartment release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, and lift the front bonnet, securing it with the prop rod. Remove the engine soundproofing panel, and using a screwdriver, unscrew the air tube (disconnect the engine air intake hose and the metal clamp pin). Remove the filter box cover using the appropriate hooks, extract the worn air filter, and insert a new one ensuring it fits snugly against the walls.

Finally, refit the air box cover and all other parts.

Close the front bonnet at the end.

Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
