Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install this filter, open the air cleaner housing located in the engine bay, remove the old unit, and clean any loose dust from the housing interior before inserting the new Bosch filter. Ensure the rubber seals seat properly to prevent unfiltered air from bypassing the filter element. Compatibility includes Land Rover Discovery I and Range Rover Mk1. For care, avoid using compressed air to clean the filter as this can damage the fibers; simply replace the unit during your regular oil change intervals.
