Finished final cleaning, for now, removed main oil galley plug, you can just see number 4 journal feed flushed with brake cleaner in a pressure vessel and lots of compressed air from all directions, bolts have arrived bottom and side crank caps, and crank pulley bolt all OEM £196, starting either tomorrow or Monday with the crank.
Thanks mate for the workshop manual all the information needed and successfully downloaded spot on much appreciated
Been fiddling today with the 07 still trying to calibrate suspension, where I'm at, putting in measurements was too much keep getting incorrect measurements refusal so put in smaller increments but in the right direction if you see what I mean, this was acceptable and vehicle raised with information on dash rising, then says lowering to normal position nothing happens, then it asks for next set of measurements, starting to think the cheap Chinese compressor is not responding to diagnostic requests well the exhaust valve anyway so going to switch back to an amk which is a bit weak but works in the morning see what happens
Ur so very welcome mate and so pleased it’s useful to u , funny enough I useto store alot of parts upside down to prevent any dirt ingress or anything falling in them , laying any machined surfaces on foam, but put the foam inside a black bag first so that no fibres came off the foam
Funny enough I was going to say that about ur suspension of entering smaller numbers but see you’ve done that , have got a few scanners ie, Autel , mx808, ap200 and the gap iid, found the mx808 really good seeing it does multiple vehicles , updated it for the first year and didn’t bother updating as they want £2-300 and it seems it’s just for new vehicles so doesn’t effect me
So handy having the AP200 for the glovebox but see there are ones loaded with different software , if u ever want to get one plse let me know and will send the link over, sorry if you’ve already got one
Other thing I like about the mx808 is its bigger bi directional capabilities, did learn ages ago after getting caught out in continuity testing , this one wire passed using a meter but failed using a test light , it tripped me up for hours and found the connection pin was bad , live and learn that’s for sure
But of course know ur extremly knowledgeable my friend , sorry with me waffling as per usual
Don’t know if you’ve done the same but when I’ve been storing parts ready for assembly I’ve sprayed them very lightly with machine oil to prevent them from flash rusting until such times there used
Thks again as always allowing us to be part of the great project , really hope one day I’ll be able to pop in for a cuppa
Stay safe and well my friend and always here if I can help in any way
