We now need to take out the screw holding the transmission dipstick in place. This is a regular 6mm allen key. Then remove the rocker cover. This is held in place by 10mm bolts (12 of them)

Back to the front of the engine and remove the rotor arn carrier centre bolt, this is a torex screw

then remove the orange cover, if it has not already fallen off. You will be left with this.
