944 Air filter box cover removal?! Its impossible!
Hey all,
Has anyone ever replaced their own air filter in a 944? I'm having trouble even removing the cover to the filter box. The plastic has stripped which is preventing me from removing the bolts and there appears to be no easy way to access some of the farther back fastenings. I've had no problems replacing filters on my toyota camry or a friends ford explorer but this one is really getting the best of me. Is this a job that requires going to the dealership, and if so, does anyone know the cost?
Thanks!
Bob
