Ok... have just been out and taken the heat shields off again (front one was a *beep* so much sh*t in the way!!!). 

 

Anyway this is what I’m looking at. I’ve tightened the 10 bolts (5 top and 5 bottom) along where I’ve taken these photos. My understanding is that this is where the exhaust manifold meets the motor??? Am I right?

I have a feeling it might be the turbo to dump pipe fasteners where the issue is... how do I get access to that? From below? Any pics would be useful as. Thanks again.

Take the heat shield off the top of the turbo and manifold. You can see the nuts from the turbo exhaust housing to the dump pipe there.

The guys are suggesting the 4 bolts that connect the turbo to the exhaust manifold .

I thought that might be a thing but it is less likely so didn't mention it.

Here ya go. I had to undo a whopping 3 bolts to get my heat shield off!!! Edit: there are two more bolts underneath.
