Some places just let the turbo sit on the exhaust pipe and the drain pipe and pull the head after wrestling the turbo..

Yeah, turbo off and then oil cooler off, I can do it in about 40 minutes and I am no genius.
If the head is off, then the turbo is already off so yes, will save a bit of time.
I would check the oil cooler as a matter of course. I plan on doing mine as a yearly on major inspection form now on, had 3 discos now with same oil cooler issue and another sitting here that hasn't been looked at yet, so will wait and see on that one.

Serious ??
For extra 10 minutes work it makes lifting the head so much easier, why would you not ?
RoverLord
serious...
when I was toying with getting out of the RAAF I went into a place and meandered around the workshop to see exactly this. (and some other things that made me do double takes)
the boss wasnt happy when I declined the interview quoting that the standards of acceptable workmanship were below those that I was willing to be associated with.

Ok... but replacing it from scratch with everything in place should take a good place say 2 hours? Or more?
double post
I think also that it's headgasket, did they put steel or plastic guides??? my D2 had same symptoms and head was moved, one plastic guide was broke and other just moved.. Steel ones is to go
In the end - the head was warped "slightly". I never found out how much exactly, but they gave it new valve guides, inlet valves and all those things. New gasket, back together and everything was fine.
The head gasket they took off looked perfect
