The air conditioning dryer in your car plays an important role by filtering out pollutants and dirt particles, so it must be replaced regularly. First, remove the front grille by taking off the four clips on top and disengaging the plastic fasteners, starting with the side ones and then moving to those at the bottom of the grille.

Disconnect the battery and then the pressure sensor connector. Now you can free and remove the dryer filter located next to the condenser.

To reinstall it, simply follow the reverse procedure.
