Unless you have the block out and stripped its a recipe for disaster as you will never get it clean enough and the swarf will make its way to the turbo and kill it.

Dont recommend it at all.

Ive done it and had no issues. Obviously an oil change straight after and i flushed it through. You will be needing a right angle drill chuck

robbie is 100% lad!! Also the Wurth time lock system is a much better job than heli-coil... its about €140 for a specific set (ie. 10x1.25 only) but its worth it!
