Help needed

Hi, I've been trying to remove turbo on GL350 to replace the oil cooler gaskets.. I do not have enough clearance to remove those bolts on the rear of turbo and need help on how to remove cowl/firewall shield to have better access to rear.

Thanks and have a happy Thanksgiving!!!

I wouldn't be able to help with actual instructions, but have a look in the W164 forum. The ML and GL platforms are similar. You might be able to find docs outlining the procedure you need help with.
