Removing inlet manifold?
Anyone done this at home? Or is this a garage only job?
How long does it take to remove? Do you require any special tools? I presume a torque wrench is a must when refitting I would like to take it off and give it a good clean as there is some oil leaking around from the inlet manifold whilst replacing the gaskets Is there a guide or can soemone give me some pointers? |

that's my next job to do...
tried the egr bypass with no luck as it didnt suit my car but whilst it was off I had a look into the manifold & it looked oily & coked up a bit although the egr was pretty clean to be honest but was refitted looking like new. I think we could manage this with our experience but what fazes me is you can only see about 3 of the 6 inlet pipes as the engine seems to disapear under the bulkhead to theres lots to strip off befor the "dog can see the rabbit". I think once you can get to it there will be about 12 bolts & a sensor to deal with. Might have a go with mine next week depending on the weather. |
