Glad you got it fixed. It may only be for a while thou......if rings were stuck it may have scored the bore and done a little piston damage which may get worse over time. I bought a Y reg silver zaffy 2.2 from cambridge way and when i stripped it down i found 1 piston with a little bit missing...

bent or damaged valve(s), broken/missing rocker arm(s) if your not burning oil. Can also be damaged piston/bore which will cause you to burn oil unless you have none to burn.......

Less than half that - only just under 56k

I agree with evocarlos - get both your chains replaced, its not worth the cost if it goes Pete Tong! And it very easily can! Replacing/resetting the tensioner should only be done to get you out of a very big hole like getting the car home or to someone who can replace the chains. I had a...

I really felt sorry for the car. It was an Elite model with colour sat-nav, full leather, climate etc etc. Only other bad point was the 6 speed box was starting to whine a bit.

Good work there Carl! Heres a pic of a 56 plate vec c z22yh after i removed the oil pump cover last week........ And yes that balance chain had stretched so much it was rubbing on block! :eek:

Ive got this fitted to all 3 of my 2.2's and not had a problem for years. Best thing I ever bought (y)

Theres no rush, it will be mid July before i get a whole weekend off work to even consider doing it. P.s. I forgot about the washer jets hehe, but glad you could make use of them otherwise they would have just sat in my ever increasing spare parts box :whistle:

Ive got 1 of these and works a treat. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DRAPER-37442-PETROL-ENGINE-COMPRESSION-TESTER-WITH-14MM-18MM-ADAPTOR-/190587846667?pt=UK_Diagnostic_Tools_Equipment&hash=item2c5febc00b I use bigger kits at work but thats only because it gets used on diesels and petrols & its...

Yep a 1.8 cab loom. Donor loom was slightly different because it only had 12pin MFD but did have cruise control. It does look really easy now but at first glance you think "ok where to start lol"

That silver looks good to me (y) Im going to colour code some more plastics at a later date.

I live near Stanstead Airport lol - not exactly round the corner but thanks for the offer thou, appreciated. Ill be using the white wire, its going in my cab. I noticed most of the wires on the other loom were very close to the blower unit, some of which were joined to other wires. Q: Is it...

Mumbo Jumbo - can you work this 1 out? :LOL: All ready for the conversion :)

They are LED's but people have been covering them up with tape :eek:. seen that a few times. If your not getting anything from your OBD port then its gonna be find the damaged wire time, or the Jock "bosh it" job. :(

It most probably is a wiring fault. Ive got the same issue with my front offside hub. Wiring is damaged so flags up abs/tc light. OPCOM said open circuit fault so I just bought 2x new hubs, as the car has done 120k now and they are probably original hubs.

I was thinking of this colour - silver (not sure on the correct name). Are you sure £10 is enough? what about paint & postage cost?

Ill have to give that a try (y)

Ok and as ive seen your work with the paint sprayer....... How much would you want to send it to me complete with a paint job?

I bought a pair of hubs for my Zafira from my local parts shop for £36 each inc. vat. They were marked with being fitted with SKF bearings too so shop about.

Well its been a while since i updated this. First 1 of my roof latches broke. So after the cheapest i could get a new latch mechanism was £300+ I managed to do a repair which cost pennies, involved using grip fill & 2x screws and an hour! 3 months later and no problems :) Next I bought a set...
