nope didnt find the solution and it seamed to get worse so i sold it on, had a simular noise on my vectra for 1 day and the bearing decided to make a hole in the side of the engine casing and go down the road
not had a good day engines gone on my vec so looks like its about to become parts still up on ebay though to see what it goes for as it is at teh moment if it sells for a good amount then il let it go if not il just strip it for parts titanium dash gsi bumper / wheels the lot
as above i was tempted buy some one looking to sell a focus so im now woundering if anyone fancys a swap for something different (miss my astra) for my vectra 2.0 sri 140ps
pics arnt good as its filthy after a weeks work
Due to new focus its time to sell the fiesta its 1.6 16v si which has been well looked after just the one lady owner for the last 4yrs fully maintained at whatever cost

known the car was leaking oil but couldnt see anything till i changed the wheels onto some tempary ones till i got new tyres and noticed it was from the back of the cam chian cover so thout maybe just a gasket plan was to move house this weekend just gone get paid and drop it in to vauxhall this...
noticed my cars been using oil but never seen a leek untill i changed the wheels over the other day and as i took off the drivers front saw fresh oil on the side of the engine but couldnt see where it was coming from at the time,
any chance it could be a gasket on the side of the cam chain...
saw that on as and got worried but isnt loosing as much as yours realised iv done 10k since i got the car in jan so think its ust normal oil loss as im doing high miles due for a service soo n so see what comes up there
noticed my 2.2 has been losing oil recently keeps going really low not seen any oil patches onthe floor etc but have noticed my throttle body has loads of oil around it and remember when i cleaned it last it had loads inside it. anyone else have this problem if so any fix?

will a remus centre pipe and magnex back box off a 1.8 sxi fit my 2.2 as iv been offered a swap for my powerflow and the magnex site doesnt list the 2.2 and iv a feeling lmf doesnt list the 2.2 for the remus.
