Help needed

Okay i'm asking a lot from the GTI-R community.. Is there any members in the essex area that would be willing to give me a hand changing all the water hoses at the back of the block  , I would try and change them myself but i'm not sure i'll be able to put everything back in the right order, plus i'm pretty useless as a mechanic

So if there is anyone out there that can help I would be eternally grateful   

hey pesh - how you doing mate ?
my mechanics skills are no better than yours (if not worse) so i cant help you mate but hope you get it sorted ! you got a leak or just replacing for maintainance ?

Hi al
I'm good mate. Had a water leak for a while now ordered a new set of hoses to replace all of them as I don't not which one is leaking !!!

Blimey pesh. Long time no see. Good to see you still have the old girl.....
I'd love to come over & help but realy don't have the time at the min as I'm rebuilding my engine. Once that's done I don't mind giving a hand.
To be honest tho mate. They are a pain to do in situ. Much easier with the lump out or at least front section of exhaust & possibly transfer box.

I'm still here james   .. you think everything is fine then something else happens  

Any help would be great mate

It looks like a crap job

Do you still have the y bracket fitted? If so its going to be a bit of a sod. If not you'll be best to find someone with some ramps if doing in situ. Sorry cant help but good luck with it all the same.

Take inlet off & knee'll on top of engine is prob your easiest way

heres a pic of mine before stripping it down, was bad enough to change the hoses with the engine out, so good luck with the engine in situ, hope this helps, or I may of put you off

Don't mind helping pesh but as said got a lot on with my own car at the min.
Even tho your not that mechanically minded I'd still have a bash.
Here's another pic for you. With transfer box removed etc.
gives you a good idea of what your up against

hi pesh I'd be willing to give you a hand if your still up for doing it but I wont be available till next sunday

Hi rich, sorry only just noticed the message
