Replacing engine air filter

 Hello! 

Covid-19 made a lot of adjustments in my lifestyle,  but no matter how bad the lockdown is the car still requires a maintenance.

Today I was changing an engine air filter.

Simple procedure for 2018 Elantra , definitely not worth to evolve mechanics in it.

DYI: Changing a battery in an electronic car key

 You need a car key and a new battery. For 2018 Elantra it is 2032.

Another silly video how to do it without paying money to someone else.

Also, this year I decided to swap tires on my own. But I needed all hands and a helper to do it, so didn't have an operator to record a video ;)

DIY: Changing a Cabin Air Filter

Letting professionals do your car maintenance is the best choice. However, sometimes professionals are charging too much for a simple service like a cabin air filter replacement.
In my case, a DYI filter change was 4 times cheaper than the suggested price by both my garage and dealership.
To buy a proper filter you need to know your car's manufacturer, model, trim and year. Many online stores provide a suitable selection of accessories for your car after submitting this information.
It is recommended to change the filter every 30000 km or once a year (unless stated differently by car's or filter's manufacturer). Quite often the smell in the car, specifically from the  A/C, can be eliminated by replacement of the cabin air filter.
