Thanks Phil, looks simple enough.

 

[RobDon]

Should there be any play in the valve guides?

 

[RobDon]

OK so I have ELSAWIN plus everything I need to complete the rebuild - let the games begin!

 

[RobDon]

OK, last thing I need I think is a new oil pump, is the part number 06A115105B? Price?

£97.43 +vat hope this helps

 

[RobDon]

OK thanks, ordered a new oil pump, so I'll have a new oil and water pump, along with other stuff like new head bolts, seals, gaskets, etc. etc.

Good good how much did you pay? i got mine from vw for £67.81 which werent bad tbh...

Got a good discount on it...

 

[RobDon]

Price as above with 10% off - £97.43 - £9.74 = £87.69 + VAT = £100.84.

Reason I went with IE rods is because Issam told me his rods were not tanged, I wanted tanged rods and bearings so went IE, plus they have a proven track record too. Everything I've had from INA in the past I've had to pay import duty and VAT on it.

Rob,
2 things mate.
1. I do have TANGED 144/19 rods but you have to pay more for them
2. You are always going to pay import duty/VAT on any package coming from the US mate.

Everything looks good otherwise.

 

[RobDon]

Ah right ok, no worries, I'm sure the IE rods will do a fine job.

I never paid any import duty on my first IE package but did on the 2nd, seems a bit random really.

 

[RobDon]

OK, removing the sump shortly, there are 3 big bolts on the gearbox - these have to come out to remove the sump yes? I've undone all the small ones.

 

[csd_19]

Yep those 3 come out to get the sump off

 

[RobDon]

OK thanks Craig. Yet again I find myself thinking how retarded these engines are designed!

 

[RobDon]

Ok, I was about the put a resistor onto the wires going to the oil level sensor (the BDM sump doesn't have the provision for one), but the sensor has 3 wires, so how do I fit a resistor?
