Newbie - How do you change the engine air filter?

rowie · 05-05-2008, 06:58 AM

Hi there. I'm wondering if there's a procedure or some pics that show how to replace the engine air filter? I can find the filter under the hood (1.8T quattro) but it's surrounded by quite alot of stuff.... there's two screws at the top but those alone don't do it..... Help!

Dont have a how to or anything but I removed all of my air filter and fitted an induction kit recently and just worked through it slowly - the air filter is a pain to remove from the airbox if you dont want to remove it completely so be careful not to smash the brackets

Sorry am not much help - try getting enough access to pull the old filter out and push the new one in so the least amount of screws and parts need undoing/removing
