Let's see how to replace spark plugs and air filter on a Toyota Aygo: let's start with the air filter. Open the hood and locate the air filter box, remove the four plastic clips that secure the cover, remove the three 10mm screws that hold the base of the container, remove the box (otherwise we won't be able to access the spark plugs) and remove the old filter.

Clean the container thoroughly from dust and residue, and insert the new filter, paying attention to the mounting direction. Reposition the cover and close the box. Now let's move on to the spark plugs.

Once the air filter is removed, we will have access to the three spark plug wells. Remove the connectors and loosen the plugs by unscrewing them counterclockwise.

Install the new spark plugs by screwing them in clockwise (without forcing). Reconnect the electrical connectors and reassemble all the components that were previously disassembled, in reverse order.
