Xantia Turbo Fitting

Post by samsdodgybloke »

Hi, I am replacing the turbo on my 1997 xantia TD and am having problems getting new one in and on! Old one I had to disassemble in situ but cant get to everything to do that in refitting. Pls can someone offer me some advise.

Worst case scenario would be that you had to take the rad out so as to be able to remove the top engine mounting and pull the engine forwards a bit, not a nice thought because disturbing the cooling system brings about its own set of problems, namely the crummy clipped in pipe connections to the rad which rust up and lock themselves in.
You either struggle and do your knuckles no good at all, or take what action needs to be taken to make life easier or the job even possible.
