ece_tim, thanks for the great write-up with tips.
With all the trouble people have with turbo clearance, I wonder if using the temporary special service tool brace would prevent the engine from shifting during removal - keeping it in proper alignment for re-installation. EDIT: I've never used special tools in the past on other cars, so I'll likely just brace the engine with a jack and some blocks of wood to prevent engine pitching.
Also, how many of you replace the flywheel during this procedure? I was surprised that the original video author didn't - BUT, the damn thing is so expensive I don't blame him. I plan on doing an inspection before pulling the trigger on a new one.
