Advice. The operation may be required when repairing the engine and its systems. Therefore, in many cases it is advisable to remove the filter together with the mass air flow sensor and the air supply hose to the throttle valve.
Removing
1. We prepare the car for work (see "Preparing the car for maintenance and repair").
Note. The operation is shown on a car with engine 21114, on cars with other engines it is performed similarly.
2. Loosen the tightening of the clamps (1 and 2), fastening the crankcase ventilation system hose and the air supply hose to the throttle valve. Disconnect the wiring harness (3) from mass air flow sensor (see "Mass Air Flow Sensor - Check and Replace").
3. socket wrench by 10 mm with an extension, unscrew the bolt securing the air intake to the body panel.
4. We remove the base of three rubber racks: two - the front mounting of the filter from the holes in the body panel...
...and one rear mount from the bracket hole attached to the battery tray.
5. Remove the air filter housing together with the mass air flow sensor, the air supply hose to the throttle valve and the air intake.
6. All three air filter posts remain inserted into the holes in the filter housing. We remove the rubber struts from the holes in the air filter housing. Replace damaged racks.
Installation
1. With a slotted screwdriver with a wide blade, we fill three rubber posts into the holes in the body panel and bracket.
2. After wetting the rubber struts with soapy water, install the air filter housing on them so that all three struts fit into the holes intended for them.
3. Pressing the filter housing down, use pliers to pull the racks up in turn until the housing is fixed in the annular groove of the rack.
4. We connect the air supply hose to the throttle valve and the crankcase ventilation hose.
5. Connect the wiring harness block to the mass air flow sensor.
6. Fasten the air intake to the body panel with a bolt.
Warning! Make sure the air intake hose is not touching the starter outlet.
7. Connect the wire terminal to the battery terminal.
