just a wee bit of advice please... seem to be able to get
at the 3 nuts on the n/s but the top one on the o/s is a
different problem! is it as i suspect easier to remover the
heat exhanger with the exhaust attached and sort it that way?
thanks as always..

I got an old spanner and made it into a bent one by cutting and welding it. You can get ready made bent ones but I only needed the 13mm version so DIYed.

I cut a 13mm ring spanner in half and used the open ended straight of the wheel brace (the one that vw supply with the jack) bloody tricky mind!

burnt mine off with the "hot spanner"

I did the spanner trick also,seems to be the way to go bit heavy if you take the exhaust off with the heat exchangers......Nick.

thanks all.... prob gonna 'bodge it' till it is
falling off i think... or maybe waste the whole of saturday
on it.... thanks again.

I ended up removing the tinware to get access to the rascal took me all day what a job may your god go with you

think i have chickened out of this one an
gone for the easy option... mig it!
its not that bad, just some creative weld
touchs are needed i feel... thanks again
