Hello, I can't get on my link so I'll have to start again. I am improved of removing cylinder head, I have got to camshaft carrier, I have removed everything including Alan bolts. I can't see anything that's holding it on, but it won't budge. Any ideas please?
I'm stuck with this camshaft carrier. What could I have missed? That's not letting me remove it?

Regards,

Mark

Hi MarkGolf,

Thanks for visiting 2CarPros!

After you have removed the bolts you need to very carefully break the sealant on the cylinder head cover. I use a thin plastic putty knife to work my way around. You don't want to lift one side too much at one time because you can distort the cover.
