We are always looking to improve our service here so any feed back, positive or negative is appriceated.
In our deffece any nuts or bolts on a turbo/exhust system are well known for being problematic or sezied when removeing due to the extreeam heat cycles they incur, in some cases we have seen turbo to downpipe nuts and bolts almost weld themselves together and pull the thread off of the bolts. We have not carried out any work on the exhaust system on that car since August 2011 so this is quite likely.
As for the gearbox to engine bolts I can only say that the bolts would have been greased to prevent seizeing and when reinstalled, tightend with a 3/8 rachet (not a 2ft bar).
Thanks Brent @ SMD
