Title: hi everyone
Post by: kevinv6 on 17 February 2008, 09:40:26

hi just joined up. i'm from bedford and am a mechanic and just got hold of my first omega i fell in love with the lotus cartlon when i did a service on one at work(even more on the road test lol) but im only 24 so me getting hands on one of them is very unlikey.then a few months later i worked on a mv6 which from that moment i knew i wanted one, so off with golf gti. searched ebay and picked on up tax and mot'd for 180 quid not bad for a 25 v6 auto cdx fully loaded 1999 model. the owner said the head gaskets were gone but i know its rare theses fail,
so out with the oil cooler which was knacked. but engine still rattle badly after so had to take lifters out to be striped and cleaned up. once done that ran nice and quiet but had a misfire gave it full service but turn out to be coilpack all done now so theres my story look forward to talking to you all
