Default Another Question!!

How do I get the air filter cover off, I have removed the 3 allen bolts that I can see and have read there is 2 more at the back but I can't see them!

Also, are the rear light consoles supposed to have rubber seals? I don't get how they're supposed to be water tight?! :S

Moved to technical help forum.

I take it yours is a diesel?

the rear light lenses should have rubber seals which you will see if you take the light unit out.

Been busy today aint ya dude? Yes they are there somewhere, you may even find a post or even better, a pic somewhere on here. You will need a long series allen key for the rear ones, may even have to put a lever on the end if they are tight. The good news is that they are 'captive screws' so you shouldn't lose them.

Been very busy today, fixed the rear parking sensors, realised I do have one touch up and down. Managed to clean up the rear fogs so the bulb failure warning doesn't come up. Also secured the rear seat which was loose and came away as soon as I lifted it. Fixed some loose trim, put the cam sensor in the freezer when warm to diagnose fault. Found receipt that shows previous owner had fuel tank pump has been replaced. Disconnected the EGR braded pipe and ordered a few bits on the bay....

Also went to Holden forest with the mrs, her dad and 2 hounds! And fixed a mates printer! Phew!
