looked at it thanks but been to him before and hes good, by the way where;s the intakeas i asked is it undthe the engine cover thats held on with the 4 nuts or not thanks.

ok must be what hes talking about then as he said to do the lot going to cost $350, also hate to seem dumb here but where's the intake manifold as ill check that first is it under the engine cover thats held on by 4 nuts or not thanks lol

just wanted to know as some one said there was also a metal plate type of thing with seal, and talking about have to drain the oil and that does that sound right and is there 1 or 2 plugs at the back.

ok thanks so is there any welch plugs at the back of the motor where the trans covers it.

HI all got a vs v6 3.8 ecotec engine and noticed it was leaking a bit of coolant and coming from behind the bellhousing, so my guess is the welch plugs is there any there and if so how many and any other seals that could leak coolant thanks.

ill check it tomorrow but is the lever on the tap suppose to move as described above , the one under the hood when you move dial as i think from memory mine goes in and stays in until turn of the car.

ok are you talking about the tap underneath the hood with the 4 hoses conected to it, so if i turn the dial the tap lever should move is that correct thanks.

air con is off,no heat at all there was once today for a few seconds and all i played with was where the rod comes back onto a button that goes in when you do the hot or cold dial , i pushed it in and out couple of times and pulled the hoses off and then put them on then there was heat for short...

ok thanks to all i now have the vents working and the fan speed ill do another day when i get the new part, the only thing that cant get to work is even tho got dial on full heat there is no heat any ideas what it would be since all hoses are on.

ok great thanks ill try the fan one as for the vacum i already pulled out the switch and all the hoses were conected to the back of it.

ok where is that the vacum modulator

Hi all on my Vs Wagong i cant get any air coming through my air vents apart from the floor one, i've checked the vacum hoses on back of control switch ,all on and i also noticed i only got 2 speeds on the fan speed the last 2, do i need a whole new control and fan speed switch or not thanks...

Thanks all i just come back from drive and had another good look with torch and found it , a continous drip from one of the hoses rhat join onto a plastic pipe with other hoses coming of it, looks like the heater ones so yea going to take it off make sure no split and clean and see how it goes...

Hi all got VS wagon V6 3.8 now problem is the water is going some where not sure where tho. I've replace the thermostat and every couple days i check when its cold and the top res on the raditor has to be filled up not allot and the bottle is almost empty, any ideas as i cant see no leaks.

no worries thanks for all the information ill go helicoil way to make it stronger, dont ya just hate the alloy shittho rather have steel anyday lol.
