How to Replace the Cabin Filter on a Renault Clio 3

Model: Renault Clio MK 3, Clio 3, Clio III - Years 2005-2013
Part: Cabin air filter

In this video tutorial, we will see how to replace the cabin filter on a Renault Clio 3 by following some simple steps: the first thing to do is to purchase a new cabin filter from an authorised car parts dealer; next, get into the vehicle, turn off the car, and pull the handbrake. The cabin filter is located behind the glove compartment, so you need to remove the compartment from its housing; to do this, use a trim removal tool to start removing the trim located above and then to the side, detaching the side plastic by slightly pulling the door seal. Once these parts are detached, disconnect the airbag connector and then unscrew the screws securing the glove compartment. After unscrewing the screws, remove the compartment from its housing. Once the compartment is removed, you will have access to the filter, so pull the tab and remove the filter cover. Remove the old filter element and replace it with the new one, ensuring it is inserted correctly, following the arrows on the filter itself.

How to Bleed the Clutch on a Renault Clio?

To bleed the clutch on a Renault Clio, open the bonnet to access the components located in the engine bay: here, you will need to undo the screws that secure the battery in its housing, the intake manifold, and the coolant reservoir. This will allow you to locate the pipe through which the brake fluid flows: by inserting the other end of the pipe into a container, you can press the clutch pedal to expel all the fluid until it fills the container.
