Hey guys, my 1.9Tdi bora's got a nice whistle on the turbo, so im wanting to replace all the turbo hoses, in the realms of a amateur mechanic is this a tough job ?

it is a transverse engine so it could get a bit fiddly, would it be worth removing the turbo to give it a good clean out, aswell as the manifold.

Thanks.

Why do you want to replace all the hoses. IS one of them leaking causing the noise??

yeah, they are getting close to 10 years old so i thought it would be worth changing the lot.
