    gutted for you mate... I would defo take it back to the garage, sounds like the chain tensioner snapped took the timing out and possibly bent some internals. Chains might be the least of your worries. Only way to check it have the head apart and check.

    wait until it dries out mate. Use something to dry it? I did this but luckily it was a hot sunny day so i left the bonnet open and it ran the same once dried out.

    does sound like a flat battery with the clicking noise, What are you trying to jump it with? You'll need something half decent in terms of power to jump start it, put the negative jump lead onto a metal part of the engine bay and not the battery, You might have had the door ajar for sometime whilst working on it, interior light may have been on and flattened the battery? Let us know how you get on.

    you need all the parts from the 2.8.. you need the ecu/key immobiliser/wiring loom from the 2.8 you got or any other 2.8 OBD1. I would think the 2.9 ecu is for the abf lump?

    the pics are so sh1t, can't really give comment..get some decent pics up
  16. jezmoz
    sounds like vandalism to me ...unless the bolt in the side of the door has come out/loose/snapped?
  17. jezmoz
    well from a personal point of view when you buy a 2.8 ltr car you should expect to pay through the nose for petrol, Plus the 'gas' stations are few and far between, i've never seen one. And yes diesel costs more but you get more miles. Just put V power in and drive like a granny, spend the 2k on a supercharger j/k or more sensibly a second economic 'daily' driver and use the VR on special occasions??
  18. jezmoz
    i wouldn't touch it, just sell the vr and get a tdi and chip it

    what splits are they? I just used a socket set, takes time but a gun will shear them.

    see here chap...just beacuse it's obd2 doesn't mean it has the later upper tensioner and single chain. But the upper tensioner bolt that is off the later obd2 can be used on either. obd1 or obd2 engine (double or single chain). You'd be better replacing the upper chain tensioners as well for the all plastic non rivet tensioners.

    again answered my own question http://www.vr6oc.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?191986.post
  23. jezmoz
