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

How do you replace the original air filter with a sports one on a Peugeot 208? Follow these steps to remove the part located in the engine bay. Open the car door, pull up the engine compartment release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, and lift the front bonnet. Remove the engine soundproofing panel (as shown in the video); open the air kit (unscrew the screws), uncover the box cap, and extract the worn filter. Remove the filter housing and fit the new sports filter into the designated slot (ensuring it fits snugly around the intake pipe). Close the front bonnet after maintenance.
