I traced the exhaust leak to the front pipe gasket going to the turbo. I am having a major pain trying to get the lower right bolt out again whats the easiest way to do it ??? ie would it be better to remove the steering uj to get a socket on it ?

Swan neck spanner I use, can get a semi deep socket in with wobbly end mini ex tensioner and ratchet.
I have also found a lot of them missing on people cars on here after having other work done.

well I had a go at resealing the front pipe gasket. what a carry on- I could only get 3 bolts out the others are either just loose on the studs and wont tighten up. I think my only option is to try and get the nuts cut off and try and replace the studs
