I noticed the mk4 AC compressor has the same model number stamped on it as the mk3 VR6 one, are they identical then? because there are a lot of mk4 compressors floating around.
I've got a problem I can't seem to find a fix for, I attached a new rad support panel (when I had the crash) which came with the bonnet latch attached, but when I attached the bonnet onto the original paint lines and drop it down, It locks and unlocks fine but there is 10mm of up and down play in the bonnet before it sits flush.
I've already bottomed out the bonnet springs, tried bottoming out the latch and tried lifting the hood higher but it doesn't seem to want to sit completely down flush and there's still movement.
Are there different bonnet latches between models?
Is maybe the bonnet I got flexed?
Any help would be great cheers
Hey guys, what should be done mechanically with the car after 120k km? In order of priority. Looks like I might have the car for a bit longer than expected.
I'd probably look at the timing chains, thermostat, water pump and serp belt.Quote:

They shouldn't need replacing on a certain schedule like belts do, but some cars (like 12v VR6s) have been known to need replacing with all the guides and such. If the oil is changed quite regularly and when it should from new, it can prolong this a fair bit. I've worked for Mazda and BMW and they both have a couple of engines where this can be quite common, more so if servicing is neglectedQuote:
