Supercharged 2 Posted March 3, 2006 Remove the plug, the green (or now black) clip should just slide - use a screwdriver carefully if it's stuck Depressurise the system first by undoing the expansion tank cap (engine cold) The BTS should just pull up but you may need to give it a bit of a twist to help it out, again use pliers if you need to...
