I know which one you meant after having my mani off again. It's just the breather to the airbox iirc

Booked in with csk race exhausts tomorrow to have the flange sorted on my manifold. Machined a vband flange recess to 66mm so it'll sit onto the end of the manifold properly without any messing around sleeving it etc (Used my spare mani as a point of reference) Also ordered up parts for a...

Didn't realise you could sell them as they're technically owned by the supplier. Be careful, once they plug it in they'll get all your midget p**n search history on their laptops

These non sports without sunroofs?

Pretty sure I got it flush that's the thing

Must be the seal itself then

That's a good shout actually. I didn't put any sealant on it and certainly didn't notice an o ring. Thing is the bracket sits under it so harder to nip it up for a proper seal. What sort of gasket sealer do you recommend? Don't want silicone getting in there. Access looks pretty tight to get...

Absolutely shite isn't it! Was so tight to remove the old one id be worried about damaging the new seal getting it out again. Did you just push in your solenoid to seat it? I can't believe it's one single bracket that holds the sensor down in place. Shocking design

Cleaned all the sensor before fitting it but some may have escaped. I'll try my best to clean up the oil and see if it comes back. It's not exactly spitting it out as it's just sat in the seal. Proper annoying as I just changed the gaskets on the mani and didn't want to be taking it all apart...

Changed the seal on the vvt solenoid on Saturday and I looked today and it appears to be seeping oil. Is it likely I've not seated it properly? I tapped it in with sockets and made sure it was sat flush then slid in the vvt and tapped that down then tightened up the 10mm bolt.

Decided to change the vvt seal as I'd noticed lots of oil kicking around. What a mess. Took a fair bit of persuasion to remove the seal but got there in the end! All cleaned up and the new seal tapped home with a 27 and 30mm socket. Cleaned up the solenoid and pushed that back in then gave...

Such a s**t design! Both my o rings look fine now after swapping from another map sensor but it's still loose. Might see if I can 3d print a bracket similar to on the 197/200. Or I'll wrap it in PTFE ? Vans looking ace mate, 2118s are the best

What o ring sizes did you use on the map sensor mate?

So removed my map sensor to find a damaged green o ring. I got sent a used map sensor with good o-rings and swapped it over but Its pretty slack in the inlet manifold. How are everyone else's? Worried about getting an air leak tbh.

They'll be fine mate, dont really tend to wear and you just tighten up the bolt in it anyway.

Can't buy them I dont think. You can get them in brass from @Yanoo

He wont take you to court

Managed to remove it without damaging any of the clips and it was just oil, o-ring seems fine so wasn't letting anything past it. Cleaned it up and refitted it. Thanks for your help Carl

Take a picture. Please.

Schweet. Presume it'll just dissolve off to a certain extent? What're the symptoms if it isn't working properly?
