Title: Oil pick up pipes.
Post by: mar_k on 26 January 2013, 19:18: Do all the 1.8ts use the same oil pick up parts?

Just bought my LCR but want to swap the pick up pipe for a new one just to be safe.

Isn't it best to replace it?

Post by: mar_k on 27 January 2013, 16:49: For what it cost I feel its the best option, Also puts another receipt in the service history folder
which shows the car is being well maintained.

Agreed, for the sake of £12 and the work involved you may as well fit new.
