oh rite i get yu .. fair enough... my airbox just seems to pop straight off pretty easy ... his may be different
Yeh i thought you just removed the cover and filter then pulled, like you said his might be different maybe
yeahhh mine had two tubes that were attatched to the air box ... i just unplugged them.. and then it was a case of pullin the air box of the top of the engine.... theres some hoses in rediculas places on my car ... i think its daft tbh how its been built
you've got a 1.2 3 cyl (am i right ?) and hes got a 1.9 tdi 130 so the air box isn't on the top of his engine like yours is. just pointing that out to make sure he doesnt just go pulling away

yeah ... theres not really much to the air boxes though ... most of them do generally pull off .. be careful tho.http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=393040

Just finished trying to rejoin the rear washer connection in the front engine bay below the airbox. However it seems that the join is in a very inaccessible place between the bulkhead and what I think is a box for the brakes?
Cannot get my fingers down behind this to push the connector in. Does anyone have any experience of this connection and am I just fooling myself into being able to do this! Is it easier for my garage to do it at the service?
Any responses gratefully received.

I think you need to find someone who has reconected this pipe on a TDi as it seems the engine compartment is far more cramped than on a petrol. I looked at mine but admit i wimped out this time as i ve been quite busy and had little time to work on the car.
Also my girlfriend works at the end of the road to the dealers so its easy to swap cars for a day and let them do it. As a guide i got charged £45 to reconnect the pipe both front and back so it well worth having a go yourself. Best of luck

just to check before i do mines! can you just disconnect the MAF plug without disconnecting the battery when you remove the airbox.
im never to sure when it comes to unplugging sensors ?

I didn't need to disconnect the MAF. The top of the airbox just swings out of the way if you have disconnected the TIP from the MAF.
cheers makes sense doing it like that then!!! can that metal clip be re-used that holds the airbox onto the TIP ???
