1.4 tdi polo air filter replace

Post by Poc854 »

Does anyone know to change the air filter on a 1.4 tdi polo. The screws are on the underside and are impossible to get to unless I remove the filter box.

It is not difficult but as you are clearly concerned look on YouTube, there are a number of videos that will talk you through it.

That’s great, it feels good when you solve a problem that had been bugging you. The Polo will be pleased too!
