Default Throttle Body Connector

Is there a trick to getting the connector off? I don't want to break the thing and I don't see any clips unless it is the two square holes, do I have to punch a screwdriver in there and release a clip or does it just pull off hard?

...and your sig picture is not always displayed to those of us who block ads and dancing hamsters.


the TCA connector has a tab on the backside, use a light and mirror and you will see ( 08+ models)

many members use chrome and notscript or firefox and noscript, which loads pages fast and blocks 3rd party ads and scripts

Get a 90* pick to the tab on the back side to remove it. Or a small screw driver.
