330d Turbo Removal

[Byard]

Hi, I'm in the process of replacing the turbo in my 2004 330d but i'm finding it a tad difficult. I can't seem to get at the exhaust manifold/turbo and i'm wondering is the base of the air filter housing part of the rocker/valve head and cant be removed separately? Find it hard to believe that its all the one unit but its not budging. I looked around for a complete tutorial but not one comprehensive for me

Any help is appreciated as i'm in a spot of bother.

I have a BMW tchnicians workshop manual on an old laptop, I can have a look on that but it might take a while, how soon do you need an answer?

Have you tried looking on some of the BMW focussed forums?
