anyone got a guide to the removal of a v70 turbo, just want to do it as quick as possible, whats the beat way to take it off underneath or under the bonnet?

You can do it from above but it's faster if you can access from below as well, from what I recall. Haven't done one on my driveway for a few years now!
Spray the manifold / downpipe bolts with lots of penetrating oil and leave to sink in overnight before attempting, is my suggestion! Good luck with it.

It ain't technical... unbolt everything, be ready for the oil and water to come out

if you do it from underneath take the drive shaft out makes it million times easier

I am more worried about pete's yorkshire verb - "Undew" - not sure a southerner would understand.
