Air Filter cover clamps broke
Hey again,
I put a new air filter in and the little metal thumb clamps that hold the air filter cover on broke. Just the part that sticks up to allow you to remove them. The cover is clamped down, just the part you out you thumb on broke off. I looked at a couple Titans at work that came in for body work and they too have at least one broken. One even had both broken just like mine. I would guess these clamps break regularly. Can I just get the clamps or do you have to buy the complete air filter cover? |

Usually they break as a result of installing aftermarket air filters. Fram especially. For some reason the top portion is thicker and does not allow the cover to close all the way. The clip is available part # 16598-7S000

I have a Maxima and a Titan and I seem to always struggle to get the air filter cover back on (Nissan Filters)and slid in the 3 hold down points. Afraid of breaking the plastic clips, I remove the clamp and air hose, went right in, no problem. From now on I'll take the hose off when checking my air filters.
