Driver Side Intake
I opened up the driver’s side engine intake cover to remove a plastic screen that was blocking half the intake. Why did Toyota add this screen on the intake that feeds the engine air filter? I used the BGB and checked some YouTube video’s to confirm it’s removal.
The blocking screen was simply held by two plastic push pins. Easy mod. Taking the panel out was where all the work was. I had to jack the right rear wheel to get space to remove a couple nuts in the wheel well. I also unbolted the drivers seat belt to get access to remove another nut in the body. Easy, just took a bit of time. I cleaned everything after I opened it all up.
