Re: Driver shaft on drivers side

Re: Tappet rattle

Just a thought, are you sure its the HLA`s or is it be the timing belt hydraulic pin adjuster, known it happen before, noisy when low revs but ok under load, we will get the opportunity later this month to listen to it :D

Re: Cam cover gaskets.

Hiya. My probe 24v will not behave. Went to change the spark plugs and leads to find oil in 4 of the 6 spark plug holes. Can anyone recommend a good brand to use as a few on rock auto? Has anyone got the how to guide that was on Oracle? Many thanks 4 out of 6 means that both cover gaskets will need...

Re: Cambelt change

5 years or 60,000 miles which ever comes first, but non interference so if it goes it doesn't damage your engine :D , don't let any garage tell you it does

Re: Ariel

if goes up its not the motor, there is a plastic coil with teeth, and once gone you need a new aerial.

Re: Alternator

Last time mine went, I loosened the A/C compreesor and moved it out of the way and then drop the Alternator out via the bottom,
but they do say taking the Rad out is the easier way :D ,
I don't like to mess about with the water side unless I have to
