Cleaning the inlet manifold

[bikermikey]

so they haynes manual says to get the inlet off you have to...
remove outlet pipe from intercooler
disconnect vacuum hoses and plugs from egr valve
remove control solenoid
remove the exhaust manifold
remove egr cooler
remove inlet manifold

my question is - is all of this really required? just asking because reading up on people who've done the job, they make it sound very quick and easy to have off but this doesn't sound so quick. lol

has anyone done the job themselves?

Hello mate, I'm a brand new member/first time poster, but are you referring to the MK7 Euro 5 Transit?

Very sorry, just realised this is for the Transit Connect, and not MK7 Transit, my mistake. BTW to ADMIN I will be introducing myself in the New Members section very soon.
