and its worth the extra over a Rayvern kit

Rayvern the best :lipsrsealed: please dont make me laugh anymore your killing me :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
no wonder your mates bags split :rolleyes:

You just jumping on the band wagon or is that your own opinion, plus my mate whos bags that split werent ravern, but i do know a few lads running them and they like them  :wink:

I done quiet a bit of research into it as I wanted it for my car so Ive read and seen reviews/topics. Rayverns installs are alright but the bags/shocks he uses are sh!t.
My next car will not be lowered on collies it will be air
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

that s fair enough mate, once yo have got your struts, bags, tank, air lines,  solenoids, ride height control it really adds up, never heard of a £2k air ride kit

Today we fixed the slight oil leak i had on my rocker cover gasket and sump...

A spare rocker cover i painted the other day:



Took sump off, was not so bad, prob due to low miles on the engine, their was small bits of plastic in the bottom tho from broken dipstick tubes LOL



Removed old Pick up pipe, again this was not too dirty at all. But we swapped it out for a new one anyhow



And here is the new one in place



I started to clean the sump



then fitted it along with new Sump plug ETC

Moved on the cam cover gasket and tensioner Half moon seal and gasket

Old Half moon seal and gasket on the left



fitted new cam cover gasket then built it all back up







Put the engine cover back on so you can't really see much of the new rocker cover but I'm more than pleased with the outcome

  


Not no ordinary GTI....
