Can you please forward one of the mails
-
Hello. are these still being received as of 1400 onwards ? There was an automation issue within the database some weeks back and suspect some cached emailed remained in the queue in sparkpost as this has been disabled for some time but quota reset was today any can see around 9,000 emails were sent. If they have stopped - great and please accept our apologies. if not, I will need details of email headers to further troubleshoot.

Not with your nose, an actual tester. Fluid will change colour if it picks up co2 in coolant.

There's only one way of to determine if head gasket has gone by performing a sniffer test. You may get gunk on oil cap is not running many miles (condensation) and genuinely could be loosing coolant at many points within the system. Highly recommend stealth racing if you can get it to there [emoji3]

looks good mate I Love that "Prisma" app - its great fun!

This will look awesome sitting in the engine bay. Rarely do you see many 'rocco conversions. I imagine the engine will sit quite low due to the cheese wedge shape of the front end?
-
some good info there @RBPE
-
Yes I would say relay as well. unless it is known working then assume could also be faulty - has happened to me before with other parts.... also check it is the right relay number.
-
Are you after the hard lines or the rubber lines that connect the hard lines to the fuel rail?

Timing Chains and clutch Also check rear diff and run through VCDS to ensure no reoccurring DTC's

Front cross member bush swap
VR6Pete replied to fuzzwaldo's topic in Wheels, Brakes, Suspension and Steering
It's part of the bush. Cut them out, use heat. What ever it takes [emoji85][emoji85] Would recommend going powerflex. Some for sale on forum; Powerflex bushes https://www.vr6oc.com/forum/index.php?/topic/49637-Powerflex-bushes You can make up a jig to install easily enough to pull them through. Use lots of lube. -
Bump. Still looking for people to help run the club / social media and blogs.

That's a great effort - where did you get new shaft machined up? May be useful for others in a similar situation !

Vr6 lower timing cover issue
VR6Pete replied to Jimbo lynch's topic in Engine Maintenance and Problems
Pretty sure when I had my engine rebuilt the timing chain covers were sent to the machine shop to get skimmed flat and that the place that rebuilt my engine used jointing compound on the cover as without it will leak.
