Airbox assembly... does it just lift out?
« on: 20 May 2013, 17:01:45 »

Hi guys,

As above.... is the airbox just held in by rubber gromets and after disconnecting from the bagpipe that houses the MAF... i'm assuming I can just pry up on it?

Cheers guys :y

cheers for the help guys. box came out without too much fuss but I STILL don't have enough room to swing a 24mm wrench on to the bottom EGR pipe bolt. adjustable wrench head is too thick to sneak between the pipes  ::) ill have to get a short 24mm from somewhere.

ps, that lower snorkel from the air box... is that the tube that sticks up an lives just above the washer fluid tank... looks like a trumpet? lol presuming that's where the air comes in  :)
