Ive taken all the manifold nuts off again, and then loosened two of the three nuts where the the turbo bolts to the manifold but there is one behind near the firewall underneath the manifold which i cannot get hold of. I disconnected the flange where exhaust meets the turbo so the whole manifold moves. How do I get to the turbo off so i can access the starter??
Anyone have experience with getting the starter out of one of these? Its got me stumped.

I did it a few weeks ago.
You work from underneath.
1/ oil filter canister off.
2/turbo drain line off.
loosen nut on middle of engine mount.
3/ control arm remove.
4/ remove heat shields from down pipe & starter.
5/ remove suspension mount.
6/undo engine mount frame bolts from main rail & off engine. Need to support engine to do this.
7/remove bracket on back of starter
8/undo main starter lead & solenoid plug.
9/undo 3 starter flange bolts.
It will then nearly fall out on the floor !!
