britpop95 0 Posted February 25, 2015 Hi guys im currently doing at top end rebuild on my vr6 I've got the rocker cover and upper intake manifold off and have taken fuel rail and injectors out (injectors are going away for a clean and service) and im stuck with the lower manifold, it looks as if it will not come off without taking the alternater or auxiliary belt tensior off? The last bolt holding it on is more or less directly behind the alternator. Can it be got at somehow? Thanks in advance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VAG-hag 0 Posted February 25, 2015 I think the alternator needs to come off....... from memory Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted February 25, 2015 Yes, the alternator does need to come off and maybe the tensioner, Keep an eye out for some washers/shims on the alternator bolts and note where they sit (if you have any) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
