Valver Filter Replacement.

[George16v]

I bought a K&N panel filter for my Valver ages ago - But have not got round to fitting it because when I tried last time I couldn't get the airbox of.

Is there a guide for doing it - I don't want to break anything - The 172 airbox came off easily so I presume the valver one does too? or not!

Easier to remove the battery but you can just use your hands mate.

Way I do it is to unclip all the little clip, then you have to loosen off the three screws on the side, next to the battery. Just turn them with you hand.

Et volia!

there isnt a chance on this earth my airbox will come off without the battery coming off first

its easy and takes 5 mines tops

 

[-TA-]

yea, battery out, undo the clips, (ones right at the bottom can be an arse!) undo the srews, easy peasy!

then to get the other half off, its just 3 10mm bolts holding it to the TB, and one behind holding it onto a bracket, quite far down, will need a long extension, its next to the breather pipes, which should just pull out,

open filters dont get rated too highly on here tho, suck too much hot air in,
standard airbox with ITG for me

Ok cheers guys- was hoping to do it without taking battery out as stereo is pretty complicated to setup - Don't worry don't have an open filter have a K&N filter element, to go in air box Matey!!

You need a guide to change an air filter :S

Maybe you shoudl take it to a garage

You've got to start somewhere when it comes to car mechanics.
