Replacement of the Air Filter on the Volkswagen Polo

Model: Volkswagen Polo MK IV, Polo IV, Polo 4, MK 4, 9N - Years 2001-2009
Part: Air filter

Replacing the air filter that feeds the engine of the Volkswagen Polo is one of the operations included in the maintenance service. To do this, open the front bonnet, remove the pipe connected to the engine cover, take off the cover that also contains the filter, protect the intake pipe with a cloth, turn the cover over, and unscrew the screws that secure the box lid with a cross-head screwdriver. Once the lid is open, remove the old filter element and replace it with a new one. Close the lid and secure it with its screws, reposition the cover, and reconnect it.
