first i put ont the sway-bars and adjustable end-links

the rear DTSS system removed

removed the entire airconditioning and powersteering.

also removed some excess wiring and brackets and added the new plug cables.

removed the windscreen washer reservoir and cause in the future it will have to go when the FMIC comes on...

then came the shitty part



removed the entire exhaust system and turbo and came to an unexpected suprise



the turbo is officially scrap metal!

- i have about 1,5-2mm radial play on the shaft

- the turbine has scraped on the inside of the housing

- the wastegate hinge has worn a little, making it stick in its movement

- numerous cracks in the turbine housing



glad i found this before something bad happened!

now to go over all the options and costs and see what's the best thing i can do at the moment.



in the meantime i will be taking apart the engine bay as planned

went along with cleaning out the engine bay.

remover ABS, Battery, alternator, radiator, intercooler, oilcooler and more.

the end is starting to show, then i can start to clean it all up and start building again.
