HOW TO: Change the Engine Air Filter on a 2016-2022 Chevy Malibu 

Can I say, I’m a 22 year old single girl 2000 miles away from my dad and am CLUELESS about vehicles. I love how you explained everything so clearly.

This video is beyond awesome! Thank you for doing it straight to the point! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

This is the best video out there on changing a 2016-2021 Chevy Malibu air filter. I have a 2018 and, for me, found that the extra step of loosening the band clamp and removing the fat black hose made for a much easier filter replacement. Last time I replaced the filter, I did not loosen the band clamp and tried to shove the filter in, but wound up tearing the orange rubber to do so. Thanks for this clear and concise video.

Wasn't really necessary loosening the band clamp. Just need to loosen the 6 screws, slightly lift the cover enough for the filter to fit through and replace it with a new one.

Great video! I really appreciate how you take time to explain everything. Camera work was fantastic as well. Thank you!

Easy to follow video thank you! They were trying to charge me $40 at the mechanic.

Thank you cam . Very easy and well explained

Good video. I've got a 2016 Malibu LS. I recently replaced my stock engine filter with a premium K&N Performance filter. It's supposed to yield another 3 or 4 hp. I think the engine does run a little better, but I can't measure it. It's like using premium gas instead of regular. Overall I'd rate this car about a 6 out of 10. Most of them have a small 1.5 Liter turbo engine with 160 hp, but with the turbo it's more powerful than you might think. I would describe this Malibu's performance as not slow, but adequate. I'm not a racer. Sometimes it's nice to have better acceleration at intersections and on interstates. I was a sport bike rider for a long time, and I think I got used to the rapid acceleration you get with a larger motorcycle. Chevrolet unfortunately dropped the 2.0 Liter 250 hp engine option for 2023 and 2024. RB

Oh! The out takes are hilarious!!!!

Easy for you. Thanks for showing where it was and how to get to it. Unlucky for me mine was parked under trees, full of crap from the trees and I had to use a wet dry vac to get the stuff out, then I had to take apart under the hood at the windshield area and clean all that out. they do not have screens to stop stuff going into the cabin air vents so I had to cut window screen and cover them so it will not happen again. Hopefully that and a car cover will stop all the work in the future.

Really like your videos on chevy malibu.... thanks from Canada

Very helpful, great vidoe and excellent visual tutorial vidoe. Thank you for this

Love your videos, very informative especially that I own a Malibu too

Great video! Thank you.

Thank you just change mines🎉

Oh yeah need more videos on this car

I recommend spraying the inside of the top and bottom halves of the air box with a liquid cleaner, then using an air compressor to blow out all the dirt and debris and drying it out with a cloth before installing the new air filter.

Thanks for making this video!

Nice job with the video, too bad you didn't go one step further and show how to reset the filter life monitor.

Can you do an oil change video on a Chevy Malibu next like that I can stop taking mine to the dealer for my oil change. Please and thank you 🙏🏼

Appreciate the video!

Very helpful thank you

Thanks for the vid bro!

Thank you 🎉

Thank you!!!!

Good job karamjot sarai.

Thanks for the video. Definitely a very simple and easy process to change the air filter. But I am curious about one thing: How much did Nike pay you to advertise for them with that product placement t-shirt?

What happens if the screws fall behind the filter thing while trying to screw back on

$25 for the part instead of the 60 that Jiffylube wanted to charge me. Thanks.

Does this need too be clean when you smoke in you car

I dropped a screw inside and cant find it on the side can that be a problem

Just to confirm, same filter and same install for the Malibu Premier 2.0? Thanks for the video.

Clean the inside of the filter compartment box with what? Just vacuum?

They tried to charge me $195. Cabin filter $175. 😮
