Well, welcome back lol

I got the new engine put in the car, and it has a bad leak from underneath near to the drivers side turbo, so it cant be got to from under the car, its some sort of feeder pipe or extention pipe or something, now this is either cracked or its the gasket at the top of it leaking but we cant tell with the engine in and certainly cant get to it.

So now its a case of what to do.

Im sick of being without my car, i have done everything ive needed too to get it running right and now i get another problem within a day of having it back, and then the warranty is only covering the part itsself and not the labour so im just so tired now mate and can't really be bothered anymore

 

The car was only on Cadpauls dads drive for i would say 1 minute, maybe 2 at a push.

:rant: :rant: :rant:

I know, i thought it might just have been me thinking that because of all the other problems ive had and maybe i wasn't enjoying it like i should if you know what i mean.

Apparently the warranty will only cover the part itself and i need to find out what is wrong with it first which i cant do with the engine in the car and i simply can not afford to take it out.

Anyone have any suggestions

 

Also it won't idle properly either,

Im going to get a compression test done to see if the engine is actually a good one, what do you think :confused:

Get it looked at at a proper Zed garage, and if the Engine is a dud the company that sold you the engine should pay for taking it out, as they sold you a pile of crap.

should being the word lol

pAlso it doesn't idle properly either.roblem for me is that the nearest zed garage is zen which is too busy for the next 2 months which will then make it too late for the warranty anyway.

And even Zen is like a full tank of petrol away :headvswal

Where is the oil leaking from? Which side of the engine? Middle, front, back etc.

Its down near to the driver side turbo, a little towards the middle from it.

Oh OK mate, just that mine was leaking very badly from the other side and it was the oil pressure sensor that was the culprit!

You had it up on a lift yet? You can usually see where the oil is coming from that way bud. ;)

Is it oil or power steering fluid?

 

Mine was leaking like a bitch from the oil cooler found a loose pipe :)

its definately oil mate.

 

I personally havent been under it yet, my mate told me where its coming from but we dont know the exact name of the part

I really think you need to save your pennies and get another zed bird,It's pretty clear this one dont like you very much,i once had a bmw 635csi and it gave me nothing but trouble so i sold it to a mate,he had it for 5 years and never cost him a penny,i think some cars and some people just dont mix.

the thing is, i have spent so much on her now i dont know if i would get any money back.

I mean who would want to buy her now? :confused:

the only way to get money back would be to strip it for parts, but it's a hassle if you don't have the space.

 

I would say if your gut says stick with it then do so, oh and take a pic of the leaking part we might be able to tell you what it is.

no one, strip it and sell it for parts, then put some more cash to it and get another

Probably no one:(

 

You could always park it in Pennywell and cover it with Newcastle Ushited stickers and flags you will probably find she will be a pile of ashes in the morning :eek: :rofl: ;)
