  1. I'm in the middle of this job on my 2007 LGT. Everything is almost apart, except for one bolt. I cannot find a good angle/space to get to the passenger side's back-most inner-most bolt. There is the coolant hose in the way, but the real issue are two hoses that have a mesh cover over them. They are not moving and I'm reluctant to force anything. UPDATE: Got it. Just needed to move around the hard lines. Lots of interconnected pieces back there. UPDATE 2: Completed the passenger side. The original gaskets were tough to get out. My guess is that these get a bit more heat due to proximity to the turbo. The driver side was a no-go. The fuel line bracket simply didn't allow sufficient vertical movement to get more that a 1/4 inch or so. I did try to get the gaskets out and the section with the tab dropped much easier than the passenger side. I buttoned it back up. Hopefully the issues were all on the passenger side. Time will tell. While this job can be done in the driveway/garage, it is not a job for a novice. For my '07, that fuel line makes it apparently more complex than others have experienced, though I know others have mentioned it as a problem. I'm just passing this along in case others want to dive in. I think the job is doable, just takes a bit more for some. I have no idea what the year to year differences are, so YMMV. I might tackle the driver side in the spring if the symptoms come back when it gets really cold. Eville Rich 2007 LGT
