Thor Air filter help

Looking for help with replacing the air filter on a 2014 Thor Ace 27.1. I'm thinking I need to remove the wiper motor to get at it....lol

Well, it’s a struggle but it can be done. After releasing the catches, press the cover upward really hard, and I mean really hard, and it will open. Maybe not completely but enough for you to pull the old filter out and slide the new one in. Make sure all catches are securely latched when finished so the cover doesn’t open unexpectedly. We have a 2013 ACE 29.2 and have struggled with this for about 6 years. It ain’t easy but it can be done.

Welcome to forum. Hopefully you can access the filter and replace it as needed. Some things are just challenging.

At least it’s something you don’t have to do very often!
