Sorry to resurrect an old thread but I thought it would explain a bit more than me making a new one

When you remove the banjo bolt with the m8 spline do you still need to hold the nut at the top with a spanner?

I am planning to change mine this week but don't want to grind down a spanner unless I have to

A bit of a thread hijack....apologies if this has been covered before too...
As we're on the subject of cam follower changing, how does one find TDC as VRS Carl suggests on a DSG Edition 30?  One can't rock the car back and forth as I am used to on a manual car.  Is there another trick please? 
Thanks
