You may find 'tamper proof' within a good comprehensive socket set as well.

HTH

Theres a clip and 2 5 sided Torx screws on the induction pipe after the air filter up from the ECU housing, you just need a special cleaner though so i believe 'll search for it now..

Use a little IPA (isoproply alcohol) to clean the sensor it's self

ok guys cheers for that ill give it a go

If you can't get hold of the Torx security bits, just whip the whole MAF assembly out. (i.e. the whole cylinder).

That's what I do - therefore, it must be right.

Very rare to find 5-point tamper proof in a socket set as they're pretty specialised. But that set you linked to does the job nice and cheeply, probably costs less than 1 of the several Snap-on bits I managed to blag Given most of them away now tho.

If you get the Torx bit then once the 2 screws are out the MAF can be a bit snug in the housing as it's got an o-ring on it, bit of moving side to side usually frees it off and you're sorted

IPA? no problem http://www.i4detailing.co.uk/cgi-bin/sh000...aISO01L#aISO01L
Just ask
