managed to trace my boost leak today..hard and brittle hard pipe coupling rubber on drivers side pissing out so thats sorted;) but on the passenger side zorst manifold i have a slight chuffing sound...how do'able is changing the manifold gasket without a major nervous breakdown resulting in hammers going through windscreens????:(

i would check your insurance document for windscreen cover lol

could be worse. it could be the drivers side.

 

i think you can get the turbo of on the n/s with the engine in

LOL same as mine, pi55ing out on the passenger side near the manifold so its either the manifold gasket or the turbo to manifold gasket :(

 

You can get to it, just have to remove the battery and battery shelf, remove the oil and water feeds for the turbo then you can remove the turbo then get to the manifold :) sounds easy when i say it like that LMAO
