Craig, you will let us all know once you've finally got this long-awaited manifold sorted won't you? :)

Title: Re: YET ANOTHER 2.3 INLET MANIFOLD
Post by craig on Jan 6^th, 2006, 7:12am

with pleasure paul.... :),just seems easier to replace the manifold itself,than repair the "cracks" (why plastic ??? ???)............

anyway will keep you informed,but this has now dropped to about 10th place on a long list of dilemmas i have at the moment :'(,but suprise suprise the only 1 with the car.. :o

PS..anybody know where the telephone code 01721 is ?

Craig, if you're interested i work for the Blue Oval and could see how much a brand new inlet manifold would be on discount (plus whatever the postage is). Usually get about 30 to 50% off most bits.

Matt

Post by mazzy_j on Feb 24^th, 2006, 1:30pm

Ouch! Pretty much £167 on discount :o and thats with about £100 off! Chap at the desk wasn't too sure whether it was the right part so i couldn't say for definate though.

Blimey, thats a few bits there innit? :o

Haven't studied the 2.3 but I reckon the 24v is simpler.

Well, almost! ;)

Title: Re: YET ANOTHER 2.3 INLET MANIFOLD
Post by Baz on Feb 24^th, 2006, 11:23pm

Mainly gaskets Paul....if you really want a list of bits that make up the octopus inlet system on the 24v...it may take some time!!!

Title: Re: YET ANOTHER 2.3 INLET MANIFOLD
Post by Paul B on Feb 25^th, 2006, 12:53pm

No, you're ok there Baz.

I've just done all mine. Bit of an arse-ache of a job, but satisfying when its all back together.
Even better when it all works properly ;)

£247 sounds about right before discount. Well, If you decide to go for new i'll be happy to help out.
