Air filter replacement for the Volkswagen Golf

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf IV, MK 4, Golf 4 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Air filter

One of the interventions planned in the Volkswagen Golf's service is the replacement of the filtering element of the intake circuit, which allows the engine to "breathe" better and consume less. To do this, we open the hood of the engine compartment, use a small screwdriver to disconnect the electrical connection of the sensor on the air intake pipe, loosen the clamp that secures it with pliers and remove it. With a cross-head screwdriver, unscrew the screws that hold the cover open, from which we can remove the old filtering element. Clean the inside of the box and install a new filter, close the cover by tightening it with its screws, insert the intake pipe securing it with the clamp and restore the sensor connections.
