RS4 Engine Pull Tools & Longer 5th/6th gear parts

[viperbl]

So, thats what I get for playing with the Stig, a leaking oil cooler! Dam.(Stone chip maybe????)

So, gonna try and get the oil cooler pressure tested tomorrow (Doug, can you get these repaired at all? its the one I got off you a few months back?)

My main question is do I need any special tools etc for this job? I was thinking mainly of a special adaptor you need to pressure test the coolant system maybe??

I am going to pull it to get to the gearbox because 4th gear syncro is on its way out, and I want to put that longer 5th and 6th gear in.

Am I correct in saying I need these parts from the 01E diesel box?
01E 311 362 L, 0.6 ratio
01E 311 362 D, 0.56 ratio.

Do I need to check my box code to see if these will fit? Any suggestions for where to buy these from??

Probably not worth repairing if holed, IMO. I'd want to be sure no loose bits inside after the repair...

Well, i've done it ... its out!

Anyone confirm those 5th/6th gear part numbers ???

That's what I call DIY!

Like the discs to stop your cover blowing away.

Get some ceramic discs then you wont get rusty marks on the cover !!!

I am just glad I found another use for my not so cheap worn discs!!

Dam weather ... wish I had a garage! Managed to jump out inbetween the showers and get the downpipes off!! lol!

Sorry, no part numbers, just a

BTW, I was in halfrauds earlier, they had aluminium framed pop-up gazebos for about £35, reckon that's what you need. Took a similar type of one to LM this year, and whilst loads of others were taking off like kites, mine stood firm.

Bloody hope so, or we will have to "slum it" in mine for our trip to the Nurburgring

[dhali]

your ONE brave man to take that on!!
any pics of the engine and gearbox??

[viperbl]

Dave, I may be a little optimistic, but I am gonna try for VMAX!! Gonne love to see how the new gears affect the speed ... plus, we may just crack the 200 in germany if we find a long enough bit of road

Here are some pics, rain went off again so managed to get the gearbox off just there ... anyone know where the sump plug is on the box???

you don't hang about do ya

iirc when we discusssed 6th last time Mihnea thought 0.56 would lug at motorway speeds so 0.6 would be ok

[viperbl]

Germany is looming, so gotta get on with it!!

Cheers dummi, So, 0.60 for the 6th, I assume this will include the 5th gear as well since they are a set are they not???
