How to Replace the Air Filter on a Toyota Highlander?

Model: Toyota Highlander Xu40 - Years 2008-2013
Part: Air filter

To replace the air filter on the Toyota Highlander, open the bonnet to access the engine bay, specifically at the top just below the windscreen on the driver's side. To open the box, loosen the fixing screws that secure the cover: this can then be removed, allowing the filter inside to be pulled out of its housing. Once the old filter has been removed, insert the new replacement part and close the box with its screws.
