The regulations for the maintenance of VAZ vehicles equipped with injection power plants provide for the replacement of the air filter of the power system every ten thousand kilometers. But sometimes a situation arises, especially after a trip in the countryside on dirt roads, when you need to replace the filter without waiting for the next maintenance. You can change the filter element of the air filter yourself. This procedure will take no more than ten minutes of personal time.

Instructions
Step 1
To remove the old filter and install a new one, it is necessary to raise the hood of the machine. Then, using a curly screwdriver, unscrew the four screws securing the air filter cover, remove it and remove the old filter element from the housing.
Step 2
The inner surface of the filter housing must be cleaned of dust and debris with a damp cloth. In this case, a special rag is ideal for removing moisture from the surface of the car body, which is available to almost any car owner.
Step 3
When finished with sterility, install the new element for cleaning the incoming air in its original place, and fix the filter cover with the previously unscrewed screws.
