Thank you for this tutorial, it allowed me to change this filter on my 2018 Beetle by myself without any difficulty.

Be careful to check the air filter model before buying it, the image on this tutorial shows a filter that has nothing to do with the one recommended by oscaro on my vw beetle 2016 1.2 tsi vehicle

As indicated, this type of flat filter is recommended for versions of the Beetle with CYVD type engine.

But it is true that it is better to check before…

Thank you. Used to change the air filter of a Golf 7. I should point out that the air box is difficult to separate from the rest of the engine, even by pulling hard upwards ;)
