i cant remove the lower part of the exhaust where the flexi pipe is situated. so far ive managed to shear 2 bolts, which actually helped a little, but i fear if i attempt to loosen the others it may cause more problems and i wont be able to remove the manifold.
is there any advice that anyone could give me? |

the bolts that connect the manifold to the part with the flex pipe?
soak them in penetrating oil and then use an impact gun to remove those. -------------------- |
