After a struggle to get the airbox lid off this is what I found.

Bearing in mind it was "serviced" in December when I bought it!!

[Phil58]

That don't look good Andy. Wonder if they changed filter when serviced?

[Mr Lawrence]

Don't think they did as getting the lid off was a nightmare!!

It's due a service soon anyway.

[Old Peter]

I found getting the lid off quite easy, although it could be that the lid on mine had been taken off regularly.

I think that, once you get the lid off and see how it's secured, things become easier the next time.

Terrible! Have a good moan to the garage and consider Trading Standards.

[Mr Lawrence]

Not really into moaning about a garage unless it's something dangerous and life threatening.

I can only assume the mechanics couldn't get the lid off so left it.

Apart from this minor blip the dealer I bought the car off went above and beyond with the sale anyway due to the finance muppets!!

[Guest]

Not so bad then but it really annoys when things aren't done correctly. at least your engine will be able to breathe now.

Hi

I also had a very dirty air filter on purchase so BEWARE it may also effect the MAF sensors within the intake pipes-I suggest a squirt of electrical cleaner-as otherwise a dirty AMF sensor will effect the fuel/air mix.
