Title: Anyone got a spare V6 front cam cover for sale?
Post by: Liam on 12 August 2010, 11:21:23
Hi there,

Still working on my head swap, and I've just remembered that in my initial engine-dead frustration I broke the front cam cover when I was removing it because I'd forgotten to undo the PAS pump pulley bolts before cutting off the aux belt, and tried to yank the cover out with the pulley still on >:(.

So I need a replacement - anyone got one? Apologies for putting it here, but not enough posts to start a thread in wanted :(

Cheers

Ooh that reminds me I need an aux belt too

I tried to list that I have a 2.5 V6 in the Manchester area as a donor car but it keeps getting removed, although it is a car for the good cause of the forum members, change from your pockets for any part off the vehicle is all that is being charged.

Sold an offside front wing for £3 the other day, just to get rid!






Thats because there are postcount limits on here before you can offer items for sale.  Admin....

Thin ice, gentle peeps, thin ice......

Remember the postcount limits are there for a reason, not just to knacker up potential sales pitches, howsoever they are worded......   ;)   :y

Ah yes - I meant front cam belt cover of course :-[ Big heart shaped thing (if you're romantically inclined).

Gaffer if that's what you understood from my post and you'll have one next week, that's great - i can wait. Dont suppose anyone knows if there are any differences? Mine is pre-facelift 3.0.

Cheers

Hmmm there are a couple on Ebay, though I'd love to pay significantly less for a bit of plastic :). Does seem to be two types though - distinguishable by symetrical or assymetrical bottom bolt holes. Mine is the type with symetrical bottom holes.
