Hi there,

Its under the black pannel under the wipers, easy to replace the filter.

1. Remove the 4 philips screws allong the front and lift up the top pannel.

2. Remove a further 4 philps screws pointing down to release the lower black pannel.

3. Take note of the postion of the foam pieces at each end, as you will have to make sure they are refitted correctly.

4. move the bonnet down to half way position (put the stay in the bonnet catch to hold there).

5. Lift up the bottom pannel as far as possible and you will see the filter lieing flat in the air box, carefully manouvre the filter out, and slide new one in, paying attention to the air flow arrows.

If you are unable to get the filter in, as the cap is very tight, you can undo the 13mm nuts and lift of the wiper arms to remove the pannel competely.

good luck
