For those who might be interested. I replaced the air filter on my 2006 C70. It's very simple to do.
The filter is located in the black plastic assembly on the fron of the engine on the left side as you face the car.

On the left side of the assembly you will see two phillip screws, take them out. The filter is in a drawer type sliding box. Pull on the handle like plastic piece on top of the assembly. It will click and pull out.

There is a rubber gasket that seals the filter drawer against the assembly. Make sure you grab it or it will fall into the engine compartment and you will be fishing it out like me with a hanger.

The OEM filter is huge, with paper pleats and a mesh layer attached to the pleats. IMO the intake must not be getting much air with this filter. Its very thick. Pop the OEM filter out, its held by preassure only.

Replace with the K&N filter. Place the rubber gasket back on and hold it well. Push the drawer in until it clicks and re-install the phillip screws and you are done!
