Air Filter Change after 36,000 miles how to
Despite a claim of 60,000 miles for the Air Filter, I am more comfortable doing this at 30,000 miles. Very easy even for novices.
1. Remove engine cover (no screws, pops off). 2. Remove 7 screws (uses 20mm torx bit/screwdriver) 3. Loosen Hose Clamp (flathead screwdsriver) 4. Lift up cover (does not have to come all the way off) 5. Remove old filter and install new filter. I sourced mine here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 6. Tighten screws and hose clamp, put cover back on, and done Here is the original and the new filter side by side:

Hmmmm, mine were missing. I don't show an air filter replacement in either the car fax report or the dealer printout. These are a California requirement.
