Ok, most of you guys are just going to laugh when you read this. I am very aware of that, but damnit I just have to ask because I CANNOT figure it out. How in the world do you replace the air filter. I spent a good hour jus trying different things and I can't get the damn thing out. All the bolt/screw things are all rusted like a mo fo and I don't know if I can unbolt that box, or if you even need to. Please help a novice out...

I'd take the upper intercooler pipe off before removing the radiator hose, less mess.
I get mine off by putting my hand under the rubber inlet pipe, pulling the aircan up at an angle and then pulling off the aircleaner housing. Turning the housing helps too. It's a pain in the a$$, but it takes 2 people to change the aircleaner in my wife Impala!! -------------------- 92 Eagle Talon TSI AWD "The Black Golfball" How fast can a 14B go???
