Exhaust Manifold in-car removal

[Alan Pritchard]

On the non turbo cars I always found it much easier to take the inlet manifold of first. The job is still a nightmare though, youll find the nuts rusted,rounded and generally hard to remove. Have a few imperial sockets slightly smaller than the stock 10??? Mm nuts. If you have a car with a removable front panel that is a godsend as it allows you to get to at least the first 3 cylinders much easier.

Hey out there in Audi land - I know many of you have enough experience
with these cars to know if an exhaust manifold can be change on a 10vt
motor with the motor in the car? And if so, do I need to remove the
Intake manifold, or can I leave it on.



Thanks,
