Work in broad daylight preferably and with a cool engine. Observe the other recommendations re ignition off for a certain period etc. Note your procedures and reverse them before visiting dealer - i.e get vehicle back to standard. Regards!
Thanks a lot! So the whole air intake needs to be removed... I try it out.
