Yeah will do. Just a shame I'm stuck with a new exhaust that doesn't fit and an old one on the car.

Ryan must have sent me the wrong exhaust. It's a couple of mm too small in diameter. I had string around the cat and a quick cramp to squeeze them together but it wouldn't budge.

Need some more advice guys...

Got under the front today but don't have the right socket so didn't change oil just yet, but did change air filter.
The old one had oil over it and there was oil in the box. Any thoughts to why?
Some kind of steering piston? Seems to be leaking.
The worst part was the oil leak coming from where the engine joins the transmission toward the back.
Also oil up infront of engine, near where the oil filter is located.

Pics to follow

Ram is leaking replace it


To change the pipe un power engine remove battery allow 20mins from last run for system be be clear of pressure then un bolt n replace

The steering ram
May require the subframe to be dropped off pull the rack out switch n replace
Im not sure if it can be removed without dropping the rack would of thought not

Ram
Requires the removal of two fluid pipes and two ram anchorage bolts one 17mm or 19mm n one star drive cant remember the size

If your subframe has not been off it will require a new set of bolts and the ability to drill n tap out the old most likely they will be rotten
