Just a quick question for a change.
Can someone remiond me what size and type of screwdriver tip is required to remove the main connector on the ECU ? I thought is was 5 star 25

 

5 star 30, but with the security pin so the bit needs a corresponding hole in the center.

 

I knew it was 5 star and I was close with no: 30. Still couldn't find one in my security bit sets, then, I realised something, I found a flat bladed screwdriver with a notch cut into it. That is what I used before. Anyway, thank you for your reply.

 

Can the whole ecu be removed while the plug is still connected?
I removed the two 10mm bolts but don't know if it pulls up from under hood or down from interior...

 

 

Thanks! Was hoping to get it out of the way without resetting any data... bummer

 

It is called a T30 TORX PLUS tamper proof
