Right, having a major travesty, got car on the lifter, removed exhaust, box, eyc. to remove the EGR and fit my new downpipes, ready to fit, but....

 

The passenger side turbo bottom oil feed coming straight out the block, has a metal 'block' type elbow/adapter, to which the banjo to the turbo fastens too, the 'block' was never screwed in properly, infact i'm suprised it wasn't leaking, I literally just touched it with a spanner and it popped out. The thread on it is a bit goosed, not only that, I have to remove the ******* turbo as there isn't room to turn it and screw it into the block otherwise....

 

Anyways, long story short, I'm wondering if there is anyone near me who has an engine in there garage etc. that I could borrow this part from until I find one I can buy? As the car ain't going anywhere till I get one, and I need the lifter!

 

Cheers, Tudor...

Yes bud, what exacly are you after? I`ve got 2 engine`s sat in my garage

Here's a picture of it and where it is located....

 

 

 

 

I should have it, both my engines are TT autos, so dont know if there is any difference, Its a bit dark to look now, how desperate are you?, your more than welcome to come and look and remove it, or i can look tommorrow and post it out to you, up to you mate?

You would be a complete legend mate if you could remove it and post it tomorrow first class, and I'll see you right for your troubles? And yeah, VERY desperate! Your about 50 miles from me (ish) so posting is the best option.......

 

However, as much as your offer is truly appreciated in a massive way, I will hang on another hour or 2, just incase of the slim chance someone closer may have one I can borrow, and maybe pick up tomorrow, but if no reply, I shall bite your hand off Daz! I didn't grab your number, email me if you can : dirtytudor @ hotmail . co . uk

 

The only person I can think of that is near to me, is paulbrem, but whether he has an engine out of the car I dunno!

 

Cheers matey, I'll be in touch soon, your the man :duffer:

Nay worreis, I will check this thread laterZ and see how you get on, if you dont get sorted i will go to my lock up 1st thing 2morra morn and remove it (if its still there) and get it posted out to you, pm me your addy if you dont get sorted

 

Daz

Cheers mate, nish PM tho unfortunately, every penny i have is into the Zed :( Can I email you?

 

Right, now I've gotta go and remove, or at least mostly remove the passenger turbo, that'll be a barrel of laughs....!

E-mailed :wink:

i have a spare one of these if you need it?? no idea how far from doncaster you are??

 

Probably be just as quick if you post it out 1st thing in the morn Mikey, Mine may be missing as I`ve not looked yet, but no worries I can still go in the morn

Mikey, if you could post it tomorrow that would be fantastic, I will gladly see you right for your troubles, and at the risk of sounding needy, could you send it first class, or whatever is guaranteed for the next day? As I said, you will be compensated for your trouble :)

 

I love this place......
