[QUOTE="Lee36328, post: 692971, member: 113"] Looks done, now onto power... Yes, I know I am late to the party. Could hardly wait to put this in. The Vanos seal repair kit from Beisan Systems. [IMG]http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f369/L36328/Rebirth/DSC_1014_zpsc5117f48.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f369/L36328/Rebirth/DSC_1017_zps8a6ebb3e.jpg[/IMG] Compare it with the seal that came out. [IMG]http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f369/L36328/Rebirth/DSC_1064_zps4543073c.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f369/L36328/Rebirth/DSC_1067_zps44576a02.jpg[/IMG] The old seals were so brittle, the inner ring literally broke apart in my hands. [IMG]http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f369/L36328/Rebirth/DSC_1065_zps516920ce.jpg[/IMG] Once it was replaced with the Beisan rings, the idle stays rock-solid at this rpm. [IMG]http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f369/L36328/Rebirth/DSC_1052_zps6ee03c42.jpg[/IMG] Torque was stable and optimised at all range of rpm, especially low rpms. Check out the voltage readings; again, rock solid at 12.5 volt at minimum. Before, it sometimes dipped down to 11.0 volt, especially when engine was cold. [IMG]http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f369/L36328/Rebirth/DSC_1050_zpse5e64851.jpg[/IMG] The instruction said to drive up to 320 km before the full effects are felt. But actually, I felt the improvement immediately. Car pulls effortlessly. Even gear change is improved, because more torque is produced compared to before. I am seriously looking forward to any further improvement as I clock up the recommended 320 km. Stay tuned... [/QUOTE]
