Hi all, A quick update... I've managed to remove most of the pipework to the turbo and yes the fan (waste gate?) bearing is shot soit's a replacement job. Believe the easiest way to remove the turbo is with the manifold so that's the next step. Any pointers on this part of the job welcomed please. One query... I can feel two bolts which I think secure the oil feed and return which are tucked under the fan housing out of sight. Is it possible to undo these from above the engine or should I go from below after removing the plastic engine pan. Fiddly job but so far so good. This first part of the job took me about an hour and a half and that was feeling my way so optimistic that I can get the thing out and put a replacement back in! Thanks again in advance. cheers, phil
