How to Replace the Engine Air Filter on a Renault Scenic III

Model: Renault Scenic Scenic 3, MK 3, MK III, Scenic III - Years 2009-2015
Part: Air filter

Replacing the engine air filter on this car model is not a straightforward task due to the position of the filter box: it is located just behind the battery compartment, practically under the windscreen. To access the filter housing, first move the brake fluid reservoir, remove the seal under the windscreen, and then take off the relevant plastic cover. At this point, unscrew the screws of the filter container lid, extract the filter, clean away any dirt, and insert the new one, reversing the steps for reassembly.
