Hi all,
My '94 Golf 1.8 petrol (Mk 3) has been leaking oil over the last couple of weeks, and I got a chap to have a look at it today. He thinks the problem is behind the the cam belts covers, on the left of the engine as you look at it.
His garage contact told him there is an oil thingy (valve?) behind it which tends to leak, and he'll fix it. But the oil has got on to the belts and they recommend that I get this done at the same time, and in fairness they are probably due a change anyway, having done over 60k.
I think I can get the job done for 150 quid.
Does all this sound valid and sensible (apart from my inadequate knowledge of engine parts) ?
I think I picked up on this group that if you are getting the belts done, get the water pump done at the same time, is that right?
Anyway, appreciate your thoughts.
Cheers,
Angus.
All the best, Angus Manwaring. (for e-mail remove ANTISPEM)
