    Ah right, rear mounted then! well i can't comment as i have never swapped a turbo on one of those yet but i can see it being a little bit of a chew if only for the reason of leaning over the car to get to it!

    Thanks for the advice. I have started taking it off, and am down to two rather inaccessible nuts. Small extension bar should do it tonight. Lots of oil feeds and water feeds, but no sods of nuts/broken studs, so far have behaved themselves very well.
    That will probably be the kiss of death for the last one!

    Jobs a good'n - Midland Turbos did a rebuild. Back on, and fingers crossed seems fine.
    5 hours to remove, 4 hours back on with a service. I'm a happy man!
