Engine Air Filter Replacement

Model: Kia Picanto 2A, MK 1 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Air filter

This video tutorial quickly explains how to replace the old air filter located in the engine bay of a Kia Picanto. After opening the bonnet, locate the filter box. Unclip the three clips and lift the box from the top. There is no need to completely remove the cover: it is sufficient to lift it enough to extract the filter. Now remove the old dirty filter. Take a completely new one and position it in the same way as the one just removed. As a final step, you will need to close the three clips as before.
