Never had a problem with reproduction sumps. Sometimes the mounting for the oil level sensor needs some tweaking but no biggy.

Have you smashed your sump?  :sad:

I saw awesome sell shallow ones but they will be pricey.

I will price a gen one up from work with out club discount  :smiley: and we got some sump sealant left over from another job.

It must be that different dash to mine. Sump from the stealers is £80 :(
Got my new injector seals and MAF so we can have a try with a MAF soon
