Yeah, im hoping for that, so do new head bolts have the polydrive? couldnt find no info on it, ive had a look for a polydrive bit and most ive found are from america.

Are the head bolts On a 1.6 Ahl engine poly drive if so where can i get one?

Compression was ok as its just starting, and to be honest when a engine is just cranking on the starter its not at anywhere near the stress it is at when its firing. its not missing every cycle, it varies, been through ignition, fuel etc and dont really want to pay for a leak down test to just...

I know whats wrong, its a sticky exhaust valve, will explain the dry fouling in number 3, tested by the good old fashion way of holding a peice of paper by the exhaust, didnt suck in all the time, just evry time it juddered, should keep me busy for a day a head rebuild, do you think im sick in...

Forgot to mention its all on cylinde 3, and checked codes after i changed coil so battery disconnected for hour or 2, would this clear codes and why im not getting any?

Its not a bit unresponsive, its a lot, leads are bosch and were expensive, i changed the coil as the terminal on c (cylinder3) was discoulered, my temp guage wasnt working so fiddled about with wires and is working, is that the one you mean or the one on the bottom of expanshion tank?

My Audi A4 1.6 started missing at idle and was sluggish to pull away so put new plugs and it seemed to sort it out, it was getting dark and i noticed it was arcing from the ht lead by the top of plug onto engine, spark was dim but every time engine missed it was a bright spark and engine...

Yeah, got to agrree with you there about cheap parts you dont know the origin of, i heard there even making fake brake pads now, im confident about the rings though as its a good company my brother in law uses, Stuffs a lot cheaper in poland aswel, now if it was cheap from someone i didnt know...

Compression results were 1. 56psi 2.134 3.126 4.135, i put some oil in number 1 and psi went up to 103, there all slightly down so i guess its just milage and wear, i just hope the ring in number 1 hasnt broke and caused scoring as, like you said i would expect them to be all roughly the same...

Suspension arms are brand new, they was fitted for the mot, all four, i know about the honing and to be honest all the machining bits like honing ive done before with good results, which is free. its not 300 quid buddy, ive priced it all up, no where near, where you getting your parts from? If...

Yeah already said i was going to put a new cambelt in, and 99% sure its a ring in number one, true it could be a leaky or damaged valve but theres also oil on the plug wich suggests its a ring, will have the head off anyway and check valves and re seat for good measure wich is free, but just in...

Havnt looked, so can you get the sump off? as i dont mind working under axle stand, as long as i can get the pistons out through the top, im not really bothered with speed, as long as it does 70 on the motorway and is reliable (i have 2 kids and will be a family car). Lifting the engine is not...

Hi, hope you dont mind me just jumping on the forums but i need some help, im going to purchase an Audi a4 tommorrow on a r reg, its very tidy and a good price, the problem is the piston rings are worn as ive done a compression test, im almost certain its not the head gasket as its only piston 1...
