Hi everyone,
Since I have had a weird rattling from the air cleaner, I took it off the other day and thought the rubber mounts were good. However after I replaced two of them anyway, the rattling is almost gone.
The problem is that the one closest to the turbo is so destroyed and so hard to take off!!! What kinda tool do I need to take the stupid thing off anyway?
BTW, is there meant to be an 8mm nut from the bottom of the air cleaner bracket securing the rubber mounts from the bottom?
I read the Haynes manual and these 8mm nuts are not there. However they are on mine.
I twisted the rubber soo many times that people must've thought I was crazy. The other two took some effort too, however they weren't as bad.
Any tips?
Do I need to use a pair of huge pliers or something?
Thanks

BTW, remember, when your air filter rattles, replace those rubber mounts even if you think they're perfect.
*another funny thing was that a kid actually recognized the turbocharger..
probably from reading those Tuning Magazines or something.. he was probably quite surprised to see a non-shiny turbo
