Cabin Air Filter Replacement

Model: Vauxhall Meriva Meriva A, MK 1 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Cabin air filter

The cabin air filter is located in the engine compartment, on the passenger side, just below the windscreen. To replace it, you need to remove the plastic grille located under the windscreen. Start by removing the wiper control arms, take off the seal along the edge, and unscrew the fastening pins of the grille to remove it. Once you access the filter housing, remove the plastic cap in front, unclip the filter retaining clips, and pull it out of its housing. Ensure there are no dirt residues inside the filter housing and insert the new one, respecting the airflow direction. Proceed in reverse for reassembly.
