In this video tutorial, see how to replace the air filter on a Volkswagen Touran by following a few simple steps: first, purchase a new air filter from an authorised dealer. Next, get inside the vehicle, turn off the engine, and pull the handbrake.

Lift the bonnet and secure it; using a screwdriver, remove the fasteners of the filter box cover, lift the cover, and take out the old air filter from its housing. Cover the intake pipe to prevent dirt from entering the system and also cover the components of the air duct, the mass airflow sensor, and the throttle body with a clean cloth, then clean the housing.
