Video tutorial on how to demonstration on how to replace the engine air filter on a Volvo C30. Here I am working with a 2.5L turbo’d engine and a similar procedure also applies to the S40, V50, and C70 models. AutoPartsWays, has supplied me with the air filter in order to produce this replacement. As a general specification, I typically like to replace the engine air filter at about 30,000km or 20,000 miles and it should be inspected during every oil change to see it’s current condition. Maintenance intervals may vary depending where you live, so if you’re exposed to more foreign contaminants in the air, then maintenance intervals would be less. A plugged or dirty air filter can cause poor performance, poor fuel economy, throttle hesitation, and increased emissions.

Tools/Supplies Needed:
-phillips screwdriver
-vacuum cleaner
-new air filter
-clean rag

Procedure:
-there will be two phillips screws which need to be removed
-once these have been disconnected, they will still remain in the filter tray assembly
-pull up the tray, it is clipped into place, then slide out the assembly with filter
-as you can see here is the filter assembly and the filter is somewhat dirty
-typically I like to clean the filter assembly to remove any dirt, so give it a wipe down with a rag
-I also like to clean the inside of the duct to remove any debris as it will stop right at the filter
-give the inside of the duct a wipe down with a clean rag
-then follow up with a vacuum cleaner
-it’s import to do this as any loose debris inside the housing will embed itself in the new filter, reducing it’s life expectancy and engine performance
-pair up the old and new filters to ensure they are the same and then install
-make sure the filter is pushed properly into the filter tray, otherwise it will be hard to install when going back into the air duct
-push the filter tray back into the duct, it should snap back into place and be flush with the rest of the duct
-then reinstall the retaining screws
-and you’re done
