How to Replace the Cabin Air Filter in a 2008 Volkswagen Fox

Model: Volkswagen Fox MK 1 - Years 2003-2011
Part: Cabin air filter

The operation of replacing the cabin pollen filter in the Volkswagen Fox takes about fifteen minutes. First, locate the filter housing inside the cabin. In this case, it is situated on the passenger side, beneath the glove compartment (as indicated by the red arrow in the images). Specifically, the air filter housing is positioned on the left side. Once located, open the cover by sliding the two rings found on the cover itself from the outside to the inside (see images) and remove it. At this point, pull down the filter housing and extract the air filter from its housing. This operation should be performed every 9,000 miles or at least once a year.

We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
