Follow these steps to remove and replace the engine air filter on an Opel Astra: open the car door, pull up the engine compartment release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, and lift the front bonnet. Secure it with the metal prop (as shown in the video).

Open the air intake kit (undo the securing screws), remove the cover of the filter box, and take out the worn air filter. Insert a new filter into the designated housing (ensuring it fits snugly against the walls).

Finally, refit the cover of the air box and tighten the screws. Close the front bonnet after maintenance.
