Hi guys

How easy is it to replace the flange gasket on a T4 2.5 LT petrol engine?? Any tips on making it easier or am I better off getting an exhaust person to fit it?? Approx time to change would be helpful also....

Cheers

oh hooo not the exhaust flange gasket?? the one with the 2 huge spring clips uh? get the exhaust guy a couple of beers! he'll have the special tool, the knowledge and hopefully the experience of whipping the springs on n off!
sorry to be a party pooper but unless you have the opening tool it will be be the death of ya! cheers jon
