Hi, can anyone tell me how to remove the plastic engine cover to access the air filter housing?

I have read and followed RRUK's instructions on the sticky and have removed the allen key bolts but cannot seem to budge the cover. Am i missing a bolt or something or do you need to prise it open with some force??

Any advice would be appreciated.

Likely you have missed one. Have you got the one down the left side and the one at the back of the engine bay? If you have un-done them all it will pop off with a tug.

Also, don't forget it won't come off with the oil filler cap in place! Discovery 4 HSE

Thanks. I was checking to see if I missed any but couldn't find another bolt. How many are there? I took out 3. There were 2 at the front and one at the back. 2011 Range Rover TDV8 4.4 Vogue SE

Going from memory (as I don't have a TD6 any longer) you remove the oil filler cap (stuff a clean rag or tissue in it to prevent dirt getting in), remove the front plastic cowl that sits above the fan blades and to do this you need to remove the PAS reservoir cap too, then you can access the allen bolts for the air filter cover.

Don't forget to unscrew the air inlet tube from the filter housing on the left hand side too. I'm sure there is at least 4 bolts, just use a torch if you can't see them all, I think there is one down the left side out of view. I seem to recall having to use an extension bar to access one of them. Discovery 4 HSE

It's a lot easier to reach the rear bolt if you completely remove the pollen filter housing, held only by two bolts.
