Default Replacing Engine Air Filter

hey guys,

i went through the stickys and searched this forum for information on replacing the ENGINE air filter, but wasn't able to find anything.

i found plenty of info on replacing the A/C CABIN air filter, but not the engine filter. did i miss it somewhere?

does anybody know how to do this for the 08 GS350 RWD?

thanks!

I can't say specifically on a GS350 because I don't have one, but usually you unclip the airbox cover and remove & replace filter, and place the cover back on.

It gets replaced the same way as every other car with a drop in filter. Pop open a few clips, remove old filter, drop new filter, clip back down and done.

Though I did find that if you don't disconnect the intake hose that it's a bit awkward, but not really necessary.
