When I saw this was a 17 minute long video I thought this was going to include a load of unnecessary steps but wow they really made replacing an air filter as difficult as possible!
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Come to Jesus Christ today Jesus Christ is only way to heaven Repent and follow him today seek his heart Jesus Christ can fill the emptiness he can fill the void Heaven and hell is real cone to the loving savior today Today is the day of salvation tomorrow might be to late come to the loving savior today John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus
Man...the engineers from PSA Group didn't send a rocket to the moon, for sure...to change a air filter you have to dismantle half a car...eheheheheheh.
Luckily not all the PSA Group cars are as involved as this one

I’m old enough to remember the 1970s when changing an air filter could be done in one minute flat. But I suppose they’ve made progress since then. 🤪
my first car a huyndai coupe 96 modell was a 1-2 minute job, this is just insane....
Have a the same car .. pretty painful just to change the air filter- your video is quite useful- will give it a go..!

I got a c4 in 2008 and then thought what a load of plastic shite. Rolling on a few years 2021 and 130,000 miles later, I'm still thinking when is this piece of plastic crap going to fail? My guess is in ten years time. Home services are the way to go, if you can . P.s. Thanks for the post
Today I complained to the manger of my local Peugeot garage about this ridiculous fandango just to replace an air filter. He laughed and said "Why make something easy when you can make it complicated ?!" This is in France ... Seriously tho', some sort of consumer watchdog should get on to cases like this and forbid manufacturers from designing engines which result in an hour's labour just to change an air filter, a regular maintenance part. The vid is 17'.38" long with numerous speeded up sections. So you can bank on 25mins for a pro to do this and the same again in reverse - there's your 1 hr labour charge to do a 10 sec filter change.
Good job !!!
Great videos 👍🏻
👍
Very informative thank you.. what a nightmare to go through for a simple task
Glad it was helpful!

great videos m8 thanks

Hi did you ever change one of the hinges on the bonnet? would I need to remove the scuttle?
GOOD JOB MATE.CAN YOU DO COOLANT CHANGE ,THANK YOU
What else can be done whilst the scuttle panel is removed?
Bet my garage never changed mine if it’s that much of a pain lol
Is it all the same on Citroen C4 coupe (2/3 doors) 2008 90hp 1.6HDi?
thanks for that.....great video , how much would this cost to have done at a regular Citroen dealers at 2022 prices ?
Depends on the hourly rate at the dealership
@@DrivewayDudes An arm and two fucking legs.
Thanks for that, I just had a "full service" done to my C4, and I doubt very much that they changed the air filter seeing how pernickety it is, so I basically paid €246+VAT for an oil change 🙄

I’ve got a C4 Picasso and can just about do it without removing the scuttle. Poor design though
Hello , is it easier to replace the diesel fuel filter at the same time as doing the air filter ? Please give me your advice ?
Most likely, but would also require removal of battery is my guess.
where can i buy sound-deadening slash carpet?
i find it suit you,just search"dooxi.com"on google.
i was thinking about buying one of these cars lol now i am shtting myself all this to change a air filter bet half the dealers would not bother fitting it would love to know the cost for this job
If a garage has a set price for a service and the air filter is part of that service then it would have to be done regardless of the time it would take. We show how you can do it yourself so if you have the time and don't mind a little challenge then it's fun and rewarding to be able to say "I did it myself"
@@DrivewayDudes you showing how to doing it yourself very well indeed to but its out of my scope i have downloaded all your videos on the c4 they are great thank you
@@DrivewayDudes " "If a garage has a set price for a service and the air filter is part of that service then it would have to be done regardless of the time it would take." And Citroen have made this such a ball-ache that I'd be surprised if even a Main Dealer would actually bother, let alone an Independent on the feathery edge of profitability. I'd go so far as to guess that every Citroen dealer and independent specialist has a dirty air filter on standby for if a customer says "show me the old part" for when they claim to have replaced it.... there must be thousands of C4s driving around with filthy 10yr old air filters. Disclaimer: I have one of these and am constantly amazed how 'kin complex Citroen have made even the simplest task; try taking the battery out, for example!!! ....... Harry Dunne was right: The French ARE assholes!!!
Crazy difficult for just replacing the air filter, who is the designer？

Omg that shudnt have been this much hard.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻☕️☕️
Citroën put the air , fuel filters, glow plug ,egr and starter motor behind the engine and sold it UK.
Why did I buy one of these 😂
Ho comprato il filtro a 10 euro su amazon perché avevo intenzione di cambiarlo da solo ma dopo aver assistito a questo video credo che la porterò in officina.. 😣
there is a much easier way than that by moving the fuel pump
The airbox is a crap design with it being in an awkward spot and ive lost count on how many times ive heard a 1.6 HDI sound like a tank when the intake pipe is broken or loose.
It's not in the easiest to get places
Fuck that !
O.M.G hell know I will do this for air filter are you shower there is now another whay 😥😥
Lost in translation
Driveway Dudes Translation: hell no, I don’t want to do all of this to change an air filter. Are you sure there is no other way to do this? Thanks Your answer to the OP: yes and no. Yes you can take it to a mechanic and no, to get to the air filter, you have to do all this.
Now I understand why Citroen don't sell in North America.

Wtf ??? All that to change a air filter ???
Yes. Not as straight forward as some
Driveway Dudes, Men, nice video, but really, this must be, the most stupid design, i have ever seen. What other cars use this engine?
Several others use this type of engine including Peugeot, Ford, Volvo, Suzuki, etc. It may not be as difficult in other brands
You don't need to do half he did
@@shanekneeshaw3483 like what ? explain please
Poxy job
nice video. but what a shame Citroen, make it simple
You dont need to remove half of the stuff he did
what like Shane ??
You removed a lot of unnecessary removes hahaha.
Citroen - Just WTF?
Poor french design😢😢😢
This video is reason enough not to buy this car.
Bad design
