I have a 04 2.0l GT and have heard on these models oil to the turbo can be stopped from the bolt being clogged.

My question is from step 1. How would you go about it?

Thanks in advance

For 2.5 but should be similar?

Also I have been told by Matt (Throttle Happy) that the post facelift Aus models didn't have the banjo bolt filter installed? I know at least in the US they started removing them sneakily as part of the servicing schedule.

I should actually post that I managed to find it. In the 2L it sits right on top of the turbo. Don't be fooled there was 2 bolts the just leaked coolant. Basically took my TMIC off then heat shield and it was there. No filter as such that I could see. Just a bolt so hopefully I found the right thing. Looked like the right one and had oil in it. An oil line coming off and was basically right on top of where the blades are so figured it was dumping oil.
