You dont twist it at all,

lift up the rear seats and underlay carpet, prise plastic cap off with a screwdriver, then disconnect the plug that attachs to the round metal lid, after that tap the metal ring that is sat in the groove on the tank( use a hammer and screwdriver) un till it is loose, then yank the lid off an disconnect the pipes and wires from the undeneath of the lid, then your left with a plastic white cage surrounding, there sould be three push in clips around the out side of this, push them in at the same time and lift up, this should free the pump out of the tank, and the rest is easy, it mite be a bit fiddly tho like needing three hands the size of a dwarfs,
