XC60 D5 Engine cover

deepsix · Oct 21st, 2014, 20:05

Has anyone removed the cover on top of the D5 engine on a MY2015 XC60? I'm sure people have. Is there an obvious way before I attempt it. I don't want to break any clips or whatever. On my previous 2.0D V50 it just popped off it's rubber 'grommits'
Cheers.

It's easy there are 4 posts just pull it up, strong clips and posts.

Suggest you put hand over the clips as you pull them to stop them going down on top of engine tray.

Thanks for that info. Only yesterday I was wondering how it was done.

Thanks for that. I thought that it shouldn't be too hard but didn't want to use excessive force. I want to use some ACF50 around the engine before the winter.

I've never seen those type of clips before. If anyone else hasn't either you seem to have to push the middle down to release the 'claw' and the outer loosens and pulls out very easily. Thanks for all help
