Hey, i cant find a tamper proof torx bit to unscrew the MAF to take it out? does audi have a special type of tamper proof torx bit? pleease help

 

You can pull them out witha pair of channel locks and replace them with something easier to pul out.

 

whats a channel lock? and where do i find one?

 

Any hardware store.

 

You can use needle nose pliers too. Its best to remove the entire maf housing for this.

Also I picked up a set of tamper proof torx bits from Sears for somewhere between $10 and $20.They were 6point which worked on the original MAF housing but would not on the new maf housing I purchased which were 5point torx.

 

Who takes the time to 3D render channel locks?

 

use a drill and drill out the center nipple. then you can use regular torx to remove. or just use pliers.
