compression test advice

Errrr, not sure. The only breather system i'm aware of is from the crank case to the air box.

Any updates Matt?

[16v Matt]

Not yet mate, just waiting for the guy who's hopefully going to do it.Looks like it could be more expensive than i first thought, i'm now told the head may need to come off to do it.  I'll keep you you posted Deefa.

Cheers mate,
Matt.

Just got a qoute from my guy, ?247 including the VAT.  Well chuffed with that!

Will get it booked in ASAP

[16v Matt]

Nice one mate, let us know how you get on, How long will it take?

[Deefadog]

Should get it back on wednesday, of course he will not be able to tell if it's the valve seals untill the head is off, hopefully it is just them

[16v Matt]

Can't see it being anything more serious, everyone i've spoke to, including 3 mechanics! Reckons mine is the stemies & it has exactly the same symptoms as yours.

All the best mate, let me know what happens.
Cheers,
Matt.

Getting her back on thursday good news is that he said the stem seals were badly worn, I could not of bared it if they were fine also getting a new timing belt fitted while he is at it, peace of mind and all

I'll let you know on thursday how she is.

[16v Matt]
