Open the air box, take the old filter out, put the new one in, close the filter box.

What part are you getting stuck at? The filter box is a big black box thing on the driver side of the car. You may need a 10 or 12 mm socket to open it.

It's about a one minute search:

How to change engine Air Filter

like touringcamry said, it's elementary auto mechanics.

heres how i did it on my V6. Its probably smiler, just you'll have to use a wrench (10mm if i remember correctly) to open the filter box. just pay attention to the filter change, not any of the other stuff i do in the video.

All of the above advice is useful.

It really is as easy as they make it sound.

There is a link to an online manual in the "Newbies please read before posting!" sticky at the top of the forum. You'll find useful pictures to help you also.

Need to change the air filter on my dads 07 Camry I4. Can anyone tell me if the screws to remove the airbox are 10mm or 12mm? Going to pick up the appropriate size nut driver at Sears to do the job. Doesn't look like a med. size adj wrench will fit into the area esp the nut closest to the firewall.

10mm "long socket" and get a long extension, 5 inches should do it.
