Follow the guide up until the "Remove Engine Cover" stage.

To remove the actual cover, start with the top right and pull both upwards and outwards (towards the front of the car). With some force, this will eventually come off. Then pull from the bottom right, then bottom left, and then finally top left, until all rubber grommet thingies have come apart.

Hope this helps  :happy2:

before you begin pulling on the cover....... pad your face  :chicken: :grin:

clicky

Don't forget to swear loudly when pulling as the first removal is a b*tch.

Also lube the grommets before you replace the cover for easier removal next time.
