Standard Air Filter replacment

Postby paulselby » Thu Jan 27, 2011 12:27 pm

Hi

Does anyone know how to change the standard Air filter on a 05 plate Megane II

The filter housing looks extremely hard to remove, is this the case?

Thanks in advance
Paul

Undo the 2 cross head screws the top piece lifts straight out to reveal the filter
Try an ITG panel filter much better and lifetime usage

Have you done it yet? I just done mine today. Its behind the battery. There are to screws on either side of it. Undo these with a really short screw drive and pull it up towards the bonnet. Its easy once u know what ur doing

Tried fitting a new air filter yesterday, no luck! Had the old one loose but there was no room to get it out. It was a struggle to say the least! :(
Once all the screws are out how do you go about getting the airbox out? Im replacing the whole thing.

Its a 05 Megane II

To remove the entire airbox assembly requires the battery, battery tray and ECU removing before it is accessible.
