Operation: How to replace an engine air filter on Volkswagen Polo

Let's see how to remove and replace the engine air filter of a Volkswagen Polo: we open the car door, pull up the engine compartment opening lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard and lift up the front hood, we secure the same with the rod (piston). Remove the engine soundproofing panel (if necessary), then open the air kit (unscrew the tightening screws), uncover the filter box cap and extract the engine air filter. We insert a new filter in the dedicated housing (making it adhere well around the walls). Finally we reassemble the cap of the air box and tighten the screws. We close the front hood after maintenance.
