hello people,
(sorry mods i couldnt really find a better place to put this)
i picked up my new ep3 on saturday but on the way home i noticed a a internal rattling kind of noise, i took it into my local garage who are always helpful, they have had a look and it turns out at some stage the top has been starved of oil and the exhaust cam is now pitted (bad enough to hear when warm at idle)
i am having the problem investigated further to try and work out when/how/why the top has been starved of oil but it now means i am on the look out for parts
has anyone got for sale or point me in the direction of a place to get new cams and cam followers at a reasonable price?
the garage will be looking for me aswell but i thought i would try and get a head start anyway
funds are abit tight as i have spent most of my budget buying the car itself
