I got my mechanic to do this job last year. He said it was a real pain because the DSG was in the way of the bolt. I think he had to loosen all the subframe bolts to be able to get clearance to remove the bolt.

 

Alternatively I guess you could support that side of the engine and undo the side and rear engine mounts and jack the engine/transmission up to get the clearance required?
