Re: Rocker cover gasket
It would appear so - the pipe unde the PVC valve on the RHD drivers side, based on the photo above on the US RS6 post.mavada wrote:is it this one which has to be flexed?
Just be careful 'flexing' the pipe.

Re: Rocker cover gasket
omg nine hours...did they replaced the gasket(s) from the inside of the engine
I can barely distinguish a hammer from a screwdriver, so i let you know when its finished next year...
...and work myself down towards my leaking rear flange seal from inside of the engine......

Re: Rocker cover gasket
That's what I like to hear! The amount if times I've had work done and it comes back greasier and dirtier than it did when went in!
I used to own a 6, now I'm just a lurker!

It's my pet hate , I spend time making sure it's all clean... Esp when doing cv boots and oil seals ...
It's just good mechanical hygiene ...

Re: Rocker cover gasket
Agree, my car came back perfect from Unit 20. I've had things not put back right in the past or rushed from other companies, and I can be picky, but everything lined up perfect (important when the front end comes off) and was all new and shiny from Unit 20.grizz wrote:swannny wrote:That's what I like to hear!

Re: Rocker cover gasket
well, that would be a good ''service'', when theyre coming to get your car for servicing/maintenance/repairs and leave the company diesel for the time needed for the maintenance and bring your car back when finished...
