You can lift a TDV6 engine out without removing the body, but it is much easier and quicker to lift the body |

AS stated in my first reply, If it is a TDV6, it is quicker, and easier to lift the body off. There was even a how-to (albeit, on a D3) posted. The body can be off in around 2 hours, with the engine out of the car in another hour. But you do it your way... Never changed a TDV8, or petrol V8 so cant really comment on them, but every time I would lift the body. Not worth the messing around. |

He (jvautos) also seems to have ignored Ian's (Bodsy) excellent suggestion of signing up to TOPIx. |
