Peugeot 408 air filter is located on the right side of the engine. Open the engine cover and you can find the air filter. Pull off the rubber strip and use a screwdriver to pry open the four plastic buckles. Finally, remove the baffle to take out the air filter.
As a DIY car repair enthusiast, I find removing the Mercedes-Benz E200's cabin air filter quite interesting—it's usually hidden near the front passenger footwell. First, lift the footwell carpet to reveal a small cover plate secured by two Phillips-head screws (a flashlight helps). The old filter is often clogged with dust and pollen—gently pull it out to check for damage. When installing the new one, align it correctly to avoid airflow issues. I replace mine every six months for fresher cabin air and reduced allergy flare-ups. The whole process takes under 20 minutes with just a screwdriver and gloves—beginners, take it slow. Afterward, clean thoroughly to prevent debris from entering the AC system, which can cause noise and extend its lifespan.
