The air filter of the Land Rover Discovery Sport is located on the right side of the engine compartment, inside a black square-shaped plastic box. Steps to replace the air filter: 1. Gently release the two clips securing the box cover, then lift the entire air filter cover. Some models may have screws securing the cover, which need to be removed with a screwdriver; 2. Open the air filter cover and remove the old air filter; 3. Install the new air filter, close the cover, and secure the clips. The Land Rover Discovery Sport has body dimensions of 4600mm in length, 1894mm in width, and 1700mm in height.
With years of car repair experience, I've found that the air filter for the Land Rover Discovery Sport is usually hidden behind the glove box on the passenger side. You'll need to first open the glove box on the front passenger seat, carefully look for the clips or screws on either side or at the top, then gently push or unscrew them to remove the glove box cover—the filter is located in that small slot. The design is quite reasonable, making it easy for owners to replace it themselves. Regular inspection and replacement are crucial, especially before the spring pollen season. Otherwise, a clogged filter not only reduces the airflow from the AC but also allows dust and allergens to accumulate in the car. Prolonged neglect can even affect the cooling efficiency. For my own maintenance routine, I recommend replacing it every 15,000 kilometers or once a year. It's a simple task that can be done with basic tools, saving on repair shop costs while ensuring driving safety.
