changing my air filter and pollen filter . .and headlamp washer jet!



  Audi A3
will be doing this over the next few days, and i was just wondering if there was anything id need to look out for in particular. any common mistakes that are made or is it relatively simple?

with regards to my headlight washer, ive ordered the complete unit (its just the ball thats missing though on mine) and so i guess its a bumper off job?

any help would be great, thanks

Yep bumper off job for the headlight washer, 6 bolts from memory for the bumper and then the one nut that holds the jet on.

Air filter, easy peasy it's like 8 screws, just be careful otherwise you'll drop the screws as they're quite fiddly. Magnetic screwdriver bit is the best bet. Torx bit too.

Pollen filter, just be careful when removing the push clip, it's easily broke. Rough guide - http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?223024-GUIDE-TO-CHANGING-POLLEN-FILTER

Pollen filter am I right in saying it's underneath the drivers side scuttle panel, one screw and take a 6inch 'lid' housing off and it's there?
