Removing the pistons from beneath..

I was on VWVortex last night http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=3425688..

I was wondering if it is possible or has anyone done this ..?

neglected to mention he has to remove flywheel, g'box etc...

not normal - lol

It is strange...

is it that much of a headache to remove the head..?

 

[h17och]

matt done it

Putting them back is the issue, it surely easier to use a ring compressor sitting squarely on the block rather than held below..............

Blimey, might as well have removed the whole engine.

So much easier to remove the head than the gearbox.

The heads on the Ibiza are a doddle.
