Guide overview

Before you begin

The engine air filter needs regular replacing or cleaning. According to the owner's manual, this should be done every 45.000 km or 28.000 miles for a factory filter. When driving in dusty conditions, this should happen every 30.000 km or 18.500 miles. Depending on your preferences, there are many types of replacement filters available. Make sure it will fit the vehicle.

Step 1

locate the filter

⌕

The filter housing is located behind the air intake.
Pull both clasps holding the filter housing to the air intake.
Push the housing back to see the filter.

Step 2

remove old filter

⌕

Slide the old filter up and out.
Remember the only square corner of the filter is in the left bottom side.
Clean the immediate area of the filter housing, to make sure no dirt ends up in the engine.

Step 3

add new filter

⌕

With the square corner at the correct position, slide the new filter in.
Make sure the filter fits up with the backside of the air intake on all sides.

Step 4

close the filter housing

⌕

Underneath the air filter, 2 holes have to line up with plugs on the filter housing.
Once the underside is connected correctly, a small plastic protrustion has to line up with a corresponding guide on the air intake.
Clip back the 2 clips, and you are done.
