guys, I need to change out my near side rocker cover as its split open. (turbo pressure is venting there) I can see it's a big job...but are we talking glow plugs out, injectors out, lots of other bits out to get clearance?? anyone done this job?
can't find any wiki/YouTube guidance.

tdv8 4.4 2011.
affected part number is AH4Q-9424-BD (rocker cover)

thanks.
I assume it's common to the l405 models too.

My son who is a mechanic recently replaced my n/s cover, which had the same problem as yours. Yes you have to remove the injectors, but the rear one won’t clear the bulkhead and come out without loosening the engine mount, and lifting the engine slightly.

ok, did he need any special tools to get the injectors out?

big bag of Xanax.

No. The injectors are quite straightforward, held down with two short bolts on each. They pulled out easily by hand, with no special tools needed. As mentioned previously the back one won’t clear the bulkhead, without lifting the engine slightly.
