Default Dumb Q: where is air filter on 2.0T?

Sorry for the dumb question, but where is the intake air filter for the 2.0t engine (2006 A3)?

I see the plastic round intake hose which connects to a plastic piece connected to the grill, and there are air intakes facing forward (outside) and one facing back into the engine compartment. But no obvious air filter.

It's in the engine cover. You have to remove the engine cover to change the air filter. On the underside of the engine cover, there are some screws that allow access to the filter.
