How to Remove the Engine Air Filter on a Peugeot 208

Model: Peugeot 208 A9, MK 1 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Air filter

Open the car's 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 provided prop. Remove the engine soundproofing panel (if necessary), then open the air box (unscrew the tightening screws of the ventilation tube), uncover the container, and extract the worn air filter. Insert a new filter into the designated housing, ensuring it fits snugly against the walls. Finally, refit the air box cover and tighten the screws. Close the front bonnet after maintenance.
