Didn't look very hard  :tongue:

Second link down is the one you  want its the one wazzers talking about :smiley:

https://www.google.co.uk/#q=uk+mkivs+turbo+how+to

It's the one I used the first time I removed my turbo. It's a fairly simple job, few fiddly  bits  :smiley:

Good luck

It's not a hard job, just the lack of space makes it a bit of a PITA
