Let's see how to change the air filter of the Opel Astra J 1.4: the filter box is a black plastic box on the right side of the engine, near the fender, connected to a large tube; use a flat screwdriver to loosen the clamp and then remove it. Unscrew the T25 screws and the 6 screws that hold the upper cover of the filter box closed.

The cover is also held by some plastic clips on the bottom.

Remove the old filter, clean the box well from dust and residue, and insert the new filter: the rubber frame must adhere perfectly to the edge of the box to ensure the seal. Close the cover with the clips and the six screws and reconnect the air duct.

Operation completed.
