I'm trying to remove my turbo and so far I've removed the 4 nuts that connect the manifold to the block, the turbine outlet hose, and the hose that connects to the compressor outlet, but for some reason i still can't get the turbo to budge. Where else is the turbo secured to the car from?

 

doesnt it have oil lines running to the turbo, im not to savvy with turbo cars though.

 

It has both oil and water lines running to the turbo.

 

ugh he better be careful not to break them while hes yanking the turbo out, especially if he didnt know it had any ..

 

yeah it has oil and coolant lines. the coolant line connects to the LIM or below it... as for the oil u can remove it on top of the CHRA or remove the air pump and youll find a compression fitting.. id remove the air pump... oh yeah theres another oil line, the drain line.... it connects to your front cover. easy to spot

 

Image shows all attachments from turbo to engine. (s4 shown, s5 similar)

(coolant feed from intake manifold to turbo)
(oil feed to top of turbo attaches to feed line from driverside top of block, front iron)
(exhaust to turbo)
(coolant return line to hose)
(oil return line from bottom of turbo to bottom of block near oil metering pump)
(turbo to manifold)

 

thanks for your help. I got the turbo off. While taking it off some coolant ran into the manifold. Should I be worried?

 

No. If a bolt fell in....might be a diff story.

Pro-Tip: cover/plug your manifold when working on the motor.
