Filter change on a Skoda Kodiaq

Model: Skoda Kodiaq MK 1 - Years 2017-2023
Part: Air filter

In this video, we see how to change various filters on a Skoda Kodiaq: first, we need to lift the front part of the car and remove the protection that is fixed with T35 screws at the front and T40 at the rear. Place a tray under the oil filter and loosen the drain plug with a 19mm wrench. Using a special wrench, unscrew the oil filter, then install the new one lubricating the gasket with new oil and tighten to 20 Nm. Once the oil has drained properly, install a new plug and a new gasket tightening to 35 Nm. The air filter is housed in a compartment with a cover on the top of the engine, with a cover fixed by 7 T25 screws. Remove the cover, remove the old filter, and clean the compartment with a cloth or vacuum cleaner. Insert the new filter respecting its orientation. To replace the cabin filter, open the glove compartment and press the side clips (no need to unscrew anything). Release the cabin filter cover with a flathead screwdriver, remove the old filter, and clean the compartment well from dust and residue. Insert the new filter with the arrows pointing downwards. Close the cover and put the glove compartment back in place. Reassemble the lower protection, lower the car, and fill with new oil, as per the manufacturer's specifications, checking the quantity multiple times during filling.
