Hello, i have to remove the engine from my Volvo 460 1.9TD, but i dont know do I have to remove transmission with engine? Or I can do it separately?

The easiest option is to remove the engine and gearbox as one unit.

You can remove the gearbox from the car through the wheelarch with the engine still attached, but its hard going and far easier to remove the lot, if your having to remove the engine then do it with the engine.

I removed the lot when changing the clutch on my 460 1.9TD

Should take about 3-4 hours work to do.

If i recall correctly

Disconnect fuel lines
Disconnect all Electric connectors and earth straps.
Disconnect Intercooler pipes
Remove driveshafts
Disconnect Exhaust Downpipe.
Disconnect Clutch cable & Gear Linkage (if i recall you have to remove the airbox)
Undo the engine mounts and lift out
