Default Air Filter, Check/Replace (xB) *Add to tech section?*

I know this is very simple, but i posted something like this up to help someone out a few days ago, and i figure why not add it to the tech section if approved.






(You will need a medium sized phillips screwdriver)


1) First you will need to unscrew the clamp holding the intake hose to the airbox (highlighted in yellow) and then unfasten the 2 clips that are located in the front of the airbox below the hose





2) Next disconnect the intake hose from the airbox as pictured




3)Pull the airbox lid toward the front of the car to clear the tabs on the back side of the lid, then tilt it up and toward the passenger side of the car exposing the filter as pictured




4)Pull the filter out, inspect and replace if needed.




5) Then all that is nessesary is putting everything back together. A few tips for you: Be sure that the tabs on the rear side are lined up and that the lid is sealed and seated properly. Then once that is done, refasten the 2 clips back over the airbox lid




6) Lastly, reconnect the Intake hose back into the airbox




Tips on #6)---> The most difficult thing about this is the clamp itself. Its a rather tricky one that prevents the hose from being over tightened, so its best to turn the screw by hand til' it's lightly tight. If you over tighten it the plate on the bottom of the screw pops out of the hook on the other end and is a pain to get back in.












So....worthy?
