the new maf comes with the tube and the maf is calibrated to the tube you dont need nor want to remove it
why are you taking out the maf?

pull off the whole tube, the maf is calibrate as a unit with the tube. you really arent supposed to touch them hence the odd fastner.
are you having some kind of issue or you just want to clean it ?

No problems in by 996 and boxster i clean every 6 months the air flow sensor
the cayenne must be more critical because i drive off road quite a few times.
is the cayenne different?
