This is a written how to do for a non-turbo:

While it is difficult as a DIY project, it is not impossible. You will need a cam locking/hold down tool because of the VVT's.

----------------------------------------

Please, please, look for a coolant loss other than the exhaust. A pin hole in the radiator, a pin hole in the line to the turbo, a leaking connector in the firewall, etc. BEFORE attempting a head gasket.
