In the Volkswagen Transporter T5, the air filter is located inside the engine compartment, under the windscreen and at the top left. The replacement does not require special tools; to complete it, open the filter box by first disconnecting the intake hose and the electrical connector of the mass air flow sensor.

Once the cover is removed, you can access the air filter, which can be extracted from its housing and replaced with a new one. It is recommended to clean the filter box with a handheld vacuum or cloth before placing the new filter.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
