You will also need the security male torx tool, the one with the hole in the centre.

I believe it's an odd size as well either 6 or 5 sided whichever is the one not normally used. I used a good set of molegrips and managed to grip the screw heads to loosen them. I have used self rappers to put it back.

Cheers guys
I unplugged it and went for a drive tonight and the FL drove better, felt quicker, so i can assume my maf is slowly failing. Time to start saving for the synergy i think, do i need to buy the replacment maf from roveron or leave the orginal in and let the maf compensator do its job, i have read about them but i am no mechanic and dont fully undertsand the pros and cons about changing the maf ?
thanks :mil50:

Just bought a set of the 5 sided security torx off ebay @ £17 as I suspect my MAF is on the way out.

If your maf is knackered i.e. car undriveable then you'll need a new one. If it's just drifted a bit out of spec then the compensator will do.
