Yup I removed the big radiator hoses and the heater hoses. I started with the drain plug to get the initial few gallons out. Starting with the radiator hoses, for me at least, would have been a pain since they were not easily disconnected, coolant would have got all over my arms.
I found the access to the upper two bolts on the engine mount to be tricky to reach, having the right wrenches would help.
Mike - I removed air from the system using the process outlined in the Bentley service manual. It worked very well.
