    Unscrew the plugs from the air filter and release the clips. Using a 6 key and a screwdriver, release the clamp for fastening the flow meter to the air pipe;
     Remove the air filter cover together with the flow meter;
    Unscrew the 2 torxes securing the flow meter to the air filter cover;
    Remove the flow meter. At this stage, you can remove the filter,
    Putting it all back. At the same time, carefully make sure that the flowmeter completely sits in its place on the branch pipe with a clamp, do not forget to snap the latches and tighten the clamp;
    Then connect the computer, adapter, turn on the ignition and reset the flow meter correction value according to the program instructions..
