Oil pressure
What should the oil pressure usually be? Mine keeps changing, i know the guages not very good but i dont have the money to buy a different one. Its usally between 0 and the first bar, then after a few miles it will go up and maybe later on it will drop down again. Im pretty sure i have no oil leaks in the engine anywhere. Probably just a faulty guage or sender??? Thanks

Leaky oil pipe from diff
I need to get a leaky oil pipe replaced on the z It comes from the diff to the oil cooler, metal pipe, the one under the cooler. Is there a specific name or part number for it? As if i go to my nissan dealership, im going to be there for days trying to explain where it is. Thanks

Car Alarms & Additional Security
Just put a note in the window saying how much it costs to fill up should scare most people away!! Taking the steering wheel off is probably the best way, and sheffield is meant to be a crap place for car crime. Although i did leave my brand new punto in the centre once for 5 hours and forgot to lock the doors and it was still there when i got back - saying that, it was a punto. I have an iTech tracker alarm thing which ive never fitted, really should have sold it, it rings you when ur cars nicked and you can turn the engine off using ur phone, talk to the little shits inside and lock them in which will give you enough time to hunt it down and beat them up.

Changing diff oil
thanks Car Mad, might get one next time. Well, i cant believe it, ive filled it up and its all gone smoothly, first time for everything. I still have 10 knuckles, lost part of my back but im sure it'll grow back and hey when working on these if you dont loose some blood from somewhere then uve done it wrong! Watch out Vince, there will be another good looking zed at mfn and it'll be my first car show in 2.5 years were it actually looks half decent, pitty the sound system doesnt work but i'll be able to hear all the little knocks and bangs and get paranoid about what they are. Oh joy!

Changing diff oil
haha, just read that link in my other post again, it takes 1.8 litres, think i may just go and buy another bottle and put that in too. Then add what ive got left in both and squeeze as much as i can into it.

Changing diff oil
Just starting a new thread in the hope that quite a few will look at it :biggrin: Ive got the plug out which was a ball ache to begin with as i managed to push myself along the tarmac drive without shifting the nut, but with a few tarmac burns on my arse its finally come loose and come out. Ive sqeezed about 2/3 of a litre into it and im just wondering how to get the other third in, i was thinking of cutting some hosepipe (sorry dad) putting that in the diff and pouring it in the other end and blow into it. Does this sound like im making it too hard work? I mean how much should i put in, its been leaking a little from the cooler pipe (i know this is bad, its being fixed after today). How much should it take?

I need diff oil
But i dont know what kind of oil. Does somebody know? Will halfords sell it? Also where do i find the plug to take out and fill it up. Think my dad has a little squeezy bottle (somewhere) so thats kind of a problem solved. Thanks

Schumacher Makes Formula One Return
Yeah brilliant, he wouldnt come back for a loosing ferrari team, but he will for the new merc team, who are old brawn. And if he starts to loose he can just crash into people and push them off the track.
