How to loosen throttle body Y-shaped tube

[Kalyan]

Hello...

 

I searched and found instructions only for 955 type Cayenne S and not for mine (2008 CS).

 

How does one loosen the black pointy nuts?  Please see attached picture.  I want to make sure I do it right and not break them.

Update:

 

I figured out how to remove them.  For some crazy reason, you must turn both of them clockwise gently.  Turn it so that the bottom notch lines up with the hole.  Then pull them out.   You may need to push it from the bottom initially.   I had to take pictures to understand how this works and I am attaching few of them... hopefully it will help others looking for the same info.

 

Picture 1: Turning clockwise almost there.

Picture 2: Ready to be pulled out.

Picture 3: In locked position.

 

I replaced the serpentine belt.   Man... the space is super tight there, but it is done!

 

Cheers,

-K
