Hello guys

I have a ford focus 1.8TDCI 2003 i am trying to remove the turbo as i need it to be refurbed however i am having trouble removing it from the engine bay.

Any suggestions or anyone that has removed a turbo from this model?

Thankyou for your time

    My opinion is on the turbo if you don't know what you are doing suck it up and go to a respected garage.I had mine replaced last year with a genuine Ford turbo cost me About £1150 give or take a few pounds.Good idea to change the oil as well if you are going ahead.

    Thankyou for the reply guys really appreciate it, Unfortunately i havent got that kind of money for labouring a mechanic which is why i carry out my own repairs but i was frowned upon on this one.

    I have already flushed the oil and tried to remove as much debris as i could
