How to replace engine air filter

Hi Guys,

I'm new as a member, but have been following this forum for some time. And believe this is a very helpful and informative community.

I apologize if this seems like a stupid question, but has anyone replaced the engine air filter. Any inputs would be helpful.

Thanks,
Navid

Thanks mdfree. I was able to unhook the clips on the right and take a peek at the filter. But somehow the left side was not moving, so wasn't sure if there was someone else to be removed. I didn't want to force anything and break unintentionally.

But your post helps. I'll try it over the weekend.

Thanks

Just lift up gently enough to allow the filter to come out and you should be ok. And welcome to the group!

Thank mdfree. Changed the engine air filter and the cabin air filter over the weekend. Can't believe how much extra dealers charge for this work.
