Maf senor removal bit

[ChrisCurzon]

Wonder if anyone knows what the security bit is that i need to remove the maf sensor from the housing i keep getting a fault code for my maf and as i have a spare one was going to swap it into my LCR housing, but i can't seem to find a bit that will fit in so that i can remove the 2 screws

Any help would be great

Cheers
Chris

Use a pair of mole grips. If you try and use the wrong security bit in the screw head it usually mullers it from what I have seen. Will take 2 seconds with a pair of mole grips on the outside of the screw.

I also found that a small flat bladed screwdriver fits in and will turn the screw easily once it's been slightly loosened.

I bought a set of those. First time I used it, I dropped the correct bit down the back of the engine, never to be seen again.

Hope i dont make that mistake, think i'll just take the MAF off when i do it, cause these have been like gold dust to try and get hold of for some reason lol
