2002 V70 (Driver Side Turn signal bulb)

Post by Mr. Detail »

Just went out to replace my turn signal bulb thinking it would be a piece of cake but it looks like I need to remove the airbox to get better access. Is this the case? I could not get in there with a pair of needle nose pliers.

spray the 3 rubber feet holding the airbox, reach down and snap each foot upward one at a time, unscrew the 2 torx screw holding the maf.
its easy peazy to remove the box.

No need to remove the maf, the lower piece would do. The upper will just be a minor annoyance.

You can easily reach the bulb without removing the airbox. Maybe it's because I have skinny hands.

jonesg, spray with what I will assume to be a can of WD-40?
chris11211, yes you must have small hands. Not sure about easily reaching that bulb.
