Here's what ya do. Call your significant other over to the car and say "honey, I bet you can't figure out how to change the engine air filter on this car." With any luck she takes you up on the bet, has the filter changed in under five minutes and you owe the S.O. a beer.
To do it yourself is still a less than five minute job.
1. Open the hood.
2. Peer into the darkness at the front of the engine compartment on the drivers side. You'll notice a fairly large black box with a large black tube (the air intake) between it and the throttle body.
3. Loosen the clamp on that tube nearest the black box. If in doubt, just loosen both clamps.
4. The big black box has two, 10 mm bolts on one end (nearest the fender). Unscrew those bolts. There's no need to remove them.
5. Unplug the Mass Airflow Sensor (connector on top of the tube at the box end)
6. Lift the box lid from the side the bolts were loosened while pulling toward the fender so the box lid separates from the tube. Flip the lid over so it's resting on the engine.
7. Remove the original filter and check inside the box for heavy collections of dirt, critter nests or anything that might contaminate your brand new filter. Wipe or vacuum them out.
8. Put new filter where you removed the old one and reverse the process to re-assemble the airbox.
Done! Now 'you' get the beer.
By the way, if it's time to replace the engine air filter, it's also time to replace the cabin filter. You'll find that behind the glove box door. Just remove the door, pull out the tray containing the filter, remove the old one, put in a new one and re-assemble the door.
