Replacing the air filter on a Toyota Prius

Model: Toyota Prius MK 3, Xw50 - Years 2016-2023
Part: Air filter

To ensure the proper functioning of the engine and to monitor fuel consumption on a Toyota Prius, replace the air filter at the scheduled maintenance interval, or sooner if driving on particularly dusty roads. Open the bonnet of the engine compartment; you will find the filter box in the centre of the engine. Unclip the two metal clips securing the cover and pull it towards you to detach it. Lift it to remove the old filter and replace it with a new one. Close the cover and secure it with the two locking clips.
