Today we will explain how to replace the air filter on an Opel Meriva model A vehicle. To perform the replacement of the filter, we need to open the front hood and remove the upper gasket cover of the hood.

We remove the upper grille cover using a socket wrench with a 20 insert. We unscrew the screws that lock the filter box cover.

We remove the air filter from inside the vehicle and clean the housing to remove any dirt residue from the box. We insert the new filter inside the box and close the cover. We mount the grille cover and the gasket cover.
