We believe this is just an additional screen to serve as a last line of defense against any particulates that may have slipped past the engine filter. Not all Legacy's will have this screen but fortunately, the screen is not necessary for the engine air filter to function properly.
Mine is currently having problems like that but mines not caused by the air filter. No dealership in Texas or Arizona knows what the problem is but we think its the transmission even though we had it replaced.

This is way harder than you make it look, but I did it successfully after only a few curse words 👍🏼
First time is always the hardest, you will do better the second time around.
What's that filter built into the housing at 0:57?
Good question! At this time I do not have any data explaining that part of the housing.
Charcoal filter, to prevent gas fumes from leaving that end of the vehicle. It's to reduce emissions.
@@hippystyle6551 Mine doesn't have that
Did you ever find out the service interval for the secondary filter?
Are you referring to the engine air filter?
@@filterheads He means the built in filter behind the air filter, im curious too, did you ever find out?

I replaced my air filter following these instructions and now my car sometime stalls when in idle. Do you know why this might be?
It would be best to take your car into the dealer if your car is stalling.
