How do I change the air filter in my A3 and where is it located?
 

I only have 2800 miles on the new car and I think I know where the filter is, but I don't want to destroy anything under the hood to get to it. Can anyone tell me how, ITS NOT IN THE OWNERS MANUAL, I'm not a moron. I've searched for microfiche on the web with no luck. If you could help me please reply if you can't move on please.

If you're going to get involved with doing your own maintenance, you'll want to get a Bentley manual (actually a CD). I haven't found any on-line sources for Audi parts lists or blow-ups, like those from realoem.com for BMW's.
