Title: Everything Loctited
Post by: Martin_1962 on 23 May 2009, 21:21:48

This was strange, all the bolts on the car appeared to be loctited.

Inlet divider, all pulleys, cover to cam belt

The b****r who broke the cover >:(

And I think it was the dealer I bought the car from.

I reckon this may be its second cam belt and second change since I bought it (pushed for  belt change as I bought it)

Easy to forget the last fixing and break the cover, especially if you have worked on earlier V6's.

How do the Cam Seals look? Both the Exhaust cams were leaking on mine, strangely the inlet cam seals were both fine.
