My reason for asking is I fixed a gti6 with an oil leak which one of the local peugeot garages had charged £100 to make the problem worse Thumbs down

*edit*

Have you done a compression check?
And when replacing the engine, did you lose any tools in the process?

I know there is no little end bearings but the piston is connected to the rod some how yes ?

And it is not beyond possibility that one of the little ends of a rod is failing ? Say after a belt snap earlier in life ? Either way I'd say its defo a bottom end failure

well it was either an engine or a head, can't be the two now can it, or is is the first twin head gti6?

and I bet they were not "new" ...


can you get a vid of the noise?


no need to take the bumper off just to fit the bottom hose, just lube up the o-ring and it will just pop in, moving the washer reservoir can help.
