Please can any one help, how do you get to the air filter I havnt a clue!
I drive an Ibiza 1.4SE petrol
 
Open bonnet, see that great big black cover, thats the air filter box, give it a good yank and it will pull off.

On the under side there is a dozen screws, undo them all, the box splits and there sits the filter. ;)
 
Don't just yank it off as hard as you can, theres two pipes going into the side, one of which you will need to remove... make sure you put it back properly, basically because the unit decides how much air is fed into the engine ;)
 
I'd say grab a front corner in both hands and try to lift it up a bit by rocking it up and down, repeat this on the opposite front corner, then do the same on the rear, by now you should have eased up all four fixing points, although some may now be back down, so now try raising the front back up, look underneath before you lift it too high, and remove the small pipe at the filter housing end. This cover/filter assembly is secured by 4-off engine mounted wasted pegs that get rubber dounut sort of fixings pushed down over them
 
Has anyone got any pics of a 1.4 sport with an induction kit?
