Well I started this tonight..

Got the rear cat out tonight. Definitely some play and bad seals.

Can someone tell me how to disconnect the oil feed lines from the block? Definitely looks like a simple clip lock but wanted to double check. Thank you!

Yikes! Live in rust belt?
Hows loose is your rear turbo wastegate flapper without the arm connected if you dont mind? Mine is rattling, just tryin to compare.

Southeast Minnesota so you betcha on the rust belt! Luckily this is not my vehicle.

It is loose but not significantly. Same with the exhaust wheel on the turbo. But it is obviously bad. Should be dropping the turbos this weekend.

So when was someone going to tell me these are water-cooled turbo bearings?!!?

I think most modern turbo cars are now H20 and oil ?

Coming from the diesel community I was unaware and will have to do more reading. The front one is out and carnage below..

Believe me, not the worst we have seen, LOL.  Glad you were able to get it the heck outta there, tho!

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Four bolts left on the rear now. The oil feed and three exhaust manifold bolts.

When I replaced my ptu it also called to lower the sub frame for removal. 

I just removed the lower front engine
Mount(dog bone ) and used a ratchet strap to pull the engine forward towards the radiator.

This is the bracket, you can see the bolt compared to where it's supposed to mount.


Just to confirm, you removed the entire dog bone mount? Does it need to be supported while removing?

I just unbolted the engine side of the mount but removal of the entire dog bone will not negatively affect anything.

The engine will still be supported by the cradle mounts so I did not use any other supports.
The dog bone only limits front to back engine movement.

Got it, safe to say it's only a couple inches gained?

Yes, but it definitely was needed.
I'm really not even sure how the old PTU came out without doing it lol.
