Engine Air Filter Replacement

Model: Renault Clio MK 2, Clio 2 - Years 1998-2005
Part: Air filter

The engine air filter housing is located at the top of the engine. Remove the plastic cover and unscrew the screws that hold the two parts of the filter box together. Extract the old filter and ensure there are no dirt residues inside the filter box. If necessary, remove them using a vacuum cleaner rather than compressed air to avoid risking them entering the intake duct. Insert the new filter, ensuring the seal fits perfectly. Close the filter box and reposition the plastic cover on the engine.
