MAF sensor connector - has anybody replaced this?
ECS sells these (described as "<i>5 Pin Flat Contact Housing With Helper Contact Catch For Connecting To MAF Sensor</i>") and I picked one up since the red plastic part is crumbling away on my connector. Anybody know the trick to removing the old one?

I think there's a tool for getting the wires out of the connector (edited) >>>
Audi problably has a generic harness repair kit. I don't know what you should use though.
*edit*
I just checked and zdmak.com has some terminal extractor tools. Search for "harness".

yes, I have. you can take it apart. small screwdriver to push out the existing pins, or...
get the pre-crimped wires to replaced it with.

I used Jeff's writeup when I replaced mine. Just break the old connector apart, much easier than fiddling to release the pins. They'll go into the new one very easily.
