Hey

Having a problem taking the heatshield off. Just doesnt seem to want to come out?

Doing it at the moment- so a quick reply would be gratefuly.

I may have missed a bolt or something but can seem to find any?

How many bolts are there and where are they located?

Thanks very much

Chris

 

Anyone please?

 

which heat shield?

 

Sorry turbo heatshield

Can seem to get the bolt at the far bottom left?

Can this be down without taking wheel off?

 

if its the full heat shield then its connected to the down pipe trying to remember were abouts think its the left side one. your best bet is jacking it up and looking from under the car as you'l see it straight away but they are fiddley to get to. sorry can't be of anymore help but ages since i did this

 

Thanks for the reply mate.

Finally got it off. Nearly got the turbo off also. Just some of the hoses are stuck. All bolts apart from one has been slackned. Only one a bottom of turbo not done, not sure how I am going to get to this bolt to be honest, without removing downpipe which I never intended doing.

 

what you changing up pipe or turbo? its alot easier to do with down pipe off as it covers the nut

 

Changing both the turbo and up pipe.

Yeah looks like I will have to remove the downpipe.

I cant get to them bottom bolts at all.

Obviously I need to get underneath the car to do this yeah?

Thanks

Chris

 

Anyone got any advice? Removing turbo and uppipe? Do I need to take downpipe off to remove them both?

Need this finished by end of the day.

Thanks
guys

 

The Turbo is attached to the downpipe , so of course you will have to take it off to take the turbo out.

Take downpipe off first will speed things up quite a bit.

 

Thanks

Just been trying to remove downpipe, but the bolts holding the downpipe to centre section are rusted like hell and are begining to round.
