To ensure that dust and dirt do not enter the ventilation system of the Opel Astra, a specific filter has been installed at the intake. To keep it efficient, you need to replace it periodically.

Position yourself in the front passenger seat, and using a cross-head screwdriver, unscrew the four screws that secure the glove compartment. To the left in the space that has been freed, you will find the cover of the filter box, which you can open after unscrewing the securing screws.

Remove the old filter and replace it with a new one, paying attention to the flow direction. Close and secure the cover, and refit the glove compartment.
