 :grin: what are the chances.....

I have also got a horrendous leak coming from my AUQ180 head which is getting worse and worse, it's running from the area you've highlighted and working its way down the bell housing and  on to my driveway.


What does the valve do?

Seeing as your heads off, have/can you take the valve off via those 3 torque screws and see what affair is sealing it? O-ring, gasket etc

If anyone has access to a parts diagram for an AUQ180 Head, can you please stick up what that electric valve/sensor is for? and what it actually does within the head?

Glad you've said that  :shocked: was gonna rip it out tomorrow and see what it was  :grin:

I've got to pick up some bits from the dealers tomorrow anyway  so will enquire and try and get some parts pictures and info and report back :smiley:
