SOURCE: air filter on chevy hhr

The air filter is in the large plastic cover that covers the engine.
1. Remove MAP sensor connector ( slightly hidden under the front center edge of the housing. Wiggle slightly and pull straight out).
2, Loosen (but don't remove) the large hose clamps on the passenger side and center of the housing, It's a tight fit for the hands on the passenger side and the head of the clamp is facing away from you. The front center hose is stiff, but pliable, so take your time.
3. The air filter housing was designed as a snap in with rubber grommets. A firm steady pull with the front passenger side will show you how much effort it will take to pull it free. Do each of the remaining two separately. The housing will be free to remove from the vehicle.
4. On a clear area, turn the housing over and loosen the seven torx type screws (they will not come completely off, so as not to lose them). Pull the cover off. Remove the old filter and replace with your new one. Align the cover and snug the screws back in.
5. Reassembly requires lining up those rubber grommets to the mounting studs.... take your time.... all that is needed is a firm downward push to seat them.
6. Reattach the large hose clamps and remember to plug in the MAP sensor (you'll get an "check engine" light if you forget.

Hope this helps.

The engine air filter is located in the box behind the battery. This box should have 4 metal clips that pop off and you and pick up the top of the box and underneath is the filter.

SOURCE: 2008 honda pilot cabin air filter

This solution pertains to a 2008 Honda Pilot...To replace the cabin air filter which is located on the passenger side of the vehicle behind the glove box: Open glove box and remove stored items...while sitting in the passenger seat, pull towards you on each of the two clips on the left and right side of the glove box...this will cause them to become loose and the glove box will tip out completely exposing the inside of the dashboard. (Alternately...carefully pull towards you on the top center of the glove box which will cause the left and right side stops to pull away from the edges and allow the glove box to tip out) Here it gets tricky...the box holding the cartridge for the cabin air filter is the large black box on the left side behind the glove box The filter fits in a removable tray vertically inside that box. A pressure clip at the top of the box allows the vertical cover to be removed exposing the tray with the Cabin air filter... BUT!!! There is a plastic bar an inch or so high which has been placed there by the manufacturer to prevent most from changing the filter without the service department being involved. This bar must be cut with a sharp sheetrock knife or hacksaw and discarded, (it will not be reinstalled). Then there is a flat metal bar behind the plastic bar that can be removed using an 8mm socket and a phillips screwdriver. There are 2 8mm screws and one phillips head screw on each side that must be removed in order to remove the metal bar. THEN you can remove the cover to the cabin air filter box, pull out the tray with the filter (note how the filter is in the box so the new one can be placed the same way) reinsert the tray with the new filter and replace the tray cover. All other steps to finish the job are obvious as everything is the reverse. Actually the whole process is a lot of trouble and unless you are determined to change the filter I would recommend not doing it.

I have a 2008 chevy hhr, starts fine and idles

Have you replaced the spark plugs or coil packs? A lot of times spark plugs will only miss once a load is put on them. Here are some tips to help you narrow it down. All you need is a screw driver and a code reader.
First, is your check engine light on?

----> if yes, try to get the code it is throwing

is the code current?

----> if no
1. Pop the hood
2. Remove the air filter box cover and inspect the filter
---> is the air filter clean?
If no, replace the air filter
If yes, remove the engine cover -

3. Find the fuel rail located toward the back of the engine bay and find all 4 injectors.
Place your thumb over the end of a long flat blade screw driver, place it carefully on each injector, and place your thumb on your ear. With the engine running, listen for fires from the injector
-----> are all 4 injectors firing rapidly at the same rate?
----> if yes, start with replacing all 4 spark plugs
----> if no, replace the fuel injector that is not firing

If yes ---> is the code for an engine misfire?

See above instructions

if no ----> is the code for throttle body position?

if yes ---> Replace the throttle body position sensor and perform the relearn process via tech II scan tool.

These are the most common issues with misfiring with engines, hope it helps or leads you in the right direction.
