Removing bolts between turbo and exhaust
I'm doing the oil cooler seals on my 2007 R320 CDI, but I can't get past the turbo.
Despite my best efforts, I can't get the bolts out of the back of the turbo so I can remove it. I'm stripping out the E10, wearing down the ears on the bolt trying to get it to move.
I've used this product:
I've attached a photo of the bolts in question.
You can see the damage I am doing to this bolt. They are to be replaced when removed, and I have the new copper ones.
Thanks in advance!

I've used this product:
CRC 03027 Knock'Er Loose Plus Penetrating Solvent, (Net Weight:11.5 oz.) 20oz Aerosol, Reddish: Power Tool Lubricants: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific
Still can't get the bolts to move. Anyone got some advice? MB didn't give us a lot of room to work in the R class engine bay, and I can't get a breaker bar onto the wrench while it's on the bolt due to the windshield and wipers.I've attached a photo of the bolts in question.

How does anyone access the bolt at the bottom of the turbo exhaust pipe. I have removed the wipers etc and can get the 2 bolts out at the top of the pipe but can't seem to get access or a tool onto the last bolt at the bottom of the pipe ?
