Dale B Posted September 8, 2005 Author Share Posted September 8, 2005 If its gone you may wish to address why? Its been "weeping" for about 10months (usual damp patches under engine) but never dripped or any oil use. About 4 weeks ago i noticed a couple of drops on the drive (but still no oil loss on dipstick), so I thought its time to replace before it gets worse. Cars done 70000miles and put it down to general wear and tear (he says with fingers crossed). If it goes again soon after fitting I'll look more into reasons why.

Digsy Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 I had mine done when the cambelt was replaced. Good practise IMHO since the part costs about £8 and you have the car stripped down to almost the same level anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpie Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 Had mine done while it was off the road.. just because the car is 10yrs old and it was Free to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
