Part: Cabin air filter

The procedure for replacing the filter is very simple; just follow the steps outlined in the guide. By doing so, you can carry out this maintenance yourself periodically, saving on mechanic costs. The first step is to remove the dashboard frame by unscrewing the screws, taking care with the connection of the cigarette lighter. Once you locate the filter, pull it out in your direction. After positioning the new air filter, reverse the procedure just described. You can find inexpensive, good-quality filters, some even made of cotton that last for many years.
