Hi guys , need a little advice. So I need to split my engine and gearbox , and from what I can see online I need to remove the starter, lock the engine and remove the 6 bolts (2 at a go and spin the engine 120 degree to undo each pair) . Issue I have is my engine is seized. How can I split the box from the engine? Any advice much appreciated.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
