My car is a awd 2017 Infiniti Q50 2.0t this doesn’t show me how to get to it, it’s on top of the engine and the cold air intake is blocking it.I know if I bend it taking it out I will have a problem. My problem is moving stuff to get to it.

Hello again,

Okay, a cold air intake should just be an air tube with clamps holding it to rubber joints or rubber elbows. An 8MM nut driver should be able to take the tube off. It might have a Mass AirFlow Sensor(MAF) attached to it. Unplug the connector, as well as the Intake Air Temperature Sensor(IAT) connector. It may or may not be in the tube, but for it to do it's job, it should be downstream of the turbo. I can't think of any other things that a cold air intake would have on it. Please let us know how things are progressing.

Thanks,
Alex
