Trouble with correct part from mocal

[2_Door_fun 0]

Evening all.

 

Help if ya can. on my previous g60 I had a MK1 GTI filterhead with the oil outlets plumbed into a 14 row oil cooler. As the new but recentley damaged 60 has no front end I bought a Mocal take-off plate with a built in stat. All was OK untill I fitted it they sent me a filter tube for a VR6 that was last week. Since then I have had another tube sent me free of charge. Today the 3rd arrived and I think its wrong . Does anybody know what it is I need. The car is a 1991 G60..

 

this is what arrived today?

Think Auto really are useless...

 

Are you deleting the Heat exchanger?

 

If so, The bit I think you need (Darren will confirm) is the Oil filter thread off a mk1 (without the HE) - get this from VW along with the 2 MK1 water pipes too if yoou've not got these already...

Hi Supercharged (nice avatar :lol: )

 

Yes I am removing the water based heat exchanger. So this is the correct tube I just need what was still attached to my old G60 when it ws taken by the insurance :!: That had the Mk1 filter head on it with the oil cooler pipes. I need the tube from one of those or from one with a standard filter head either way it not matter?

 

Below is what was on my old car.

 

 

 

How can Mocal sell this stuff and have no tech knowledge. As i said i've had 3 tubes now!!! I have the waterpipes from a K plate Scirroco GT2 in the yard. So I just need this damn tube n all will be well.

 

Doing my head in. they are nice enough on the phone no hastle at all but half of em who ya need to speak with don't roll in till 11:30!!

 

I need a job there.

 

Cheers buddy

2_Door_fun, ? Does the extension bolt screw into the tube? if it does and you dont need it (the extension bolt that is), can i take it off your hands mate? AFAIK for a G60 you dont need the extension bolt. Best bet is to call Darren, he'll advise the optimal setup.

the part i said was correct is 100% the right part. And the part WE supply with instructions on fitting. Call me if you have problems

Sorry G man I didn't mean anything by the 'no it's not line'. Mocal never mentioned the threaded unuion would be needed. i understand now and have just got 1 from VW. Pick it up tomorrow.

 

I've had three of these tubes n all seemed wrong. I just expected it to spin in and not require anything else.

 

Again apologies..

Sorry mate what do you want?

 

The long tube on the picture is if you are keeping the water heat exchanger I think. I am not I've removed all that gubbins n fitted Mk2 pipes n will be fitting the mocal plate.

 

Exploded view of the filter head below. I have ordered part 15 'A Threaded union'

The shorter nut in your pic, if it screws on okay to the longer tube. Thanks

Sorry bud thats the bit I need. it screws onto a part from a MK1 that I pick up tomorrow from the dealers.
