Distributor

Recommended Posts

Evening people :lol:

 

Wondering if you could help me. My C has been suffereing from a little oil loss in and around the engine bay. i was not sure myself as the problem did not seem obvious so i took it to a VW/Audi specialist and they have confimed that its the distributor!!! :cry:

Any how the car still works fine but is smoking a little as expected , but what i was wondering from you guys was: Do you know where the best place to get one from other than the main dealer as this will cost £170 (new) or £80 (exchange)???

 

Any help would be much appreciated

Cheers

Borat :(

Is this a 16V? The oil seal inside 16V dizzys are known to leak when they get on a bit. You can buy replacement seal kits but chances are the actual distributor might be worn and running slightly off centre, which tends to eat the seal away.

 

I think G&S do new Bosch dizzys for around the £150 mark?
