I am changing the air filter in my 2007 VW rabbit and I cannot figure out how to remove the plastic engine cover to expose the air filter.

To replace the air filter on a 2007 VW Rabbit, you need to remove the screws holding the air duct, then gently push each end of the plastic engine cover and pull it off, rotating the unit to the side before removing several more screws to gain access to the filter. If you want to know where the filter is, there is a diagram in the engine compartment.
