It sounds like your flapper valve. Take a pic of your actuator and we can tell you if it is in the open position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(hopefully without fine or incident!).I'm sure they are happy with their work but perhaps not too keen on the re-work. He didn't specifically say "Don't bring it back" he just asked if I had someone local that can do it as its an easy fix and would be cheap to do, but I have had experiences in the past where people have totally screwed me over so I'd be taking it back just on the principal of the issue. although I will spend my money to go buy them more royal purple oil just to ensure it is the same oil being replaced if they need to.I have some pics but don't think I have a shot of the actuater rod, I'll check (I'm at work so cant take more shots.) but when I load it up on the trailer Friday night I'll take more then and post (If I'm awake enough to remember haha)only pics I have in that region at present are as follows: (taken on Sunday Night)http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t167/treay81/IMG_1358_zpsce182c50.jpgorhttp://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t167/treay81/IMG_1359_zps24e4399f.jpgbut it doesn't give anything away as the actuator is kind of hidden there.cheers.

I punched a shock through the tower on my f truck so had to fix it after work lastnight before heading across to Newcastle to pick the trailer up and then load the g6 on and head to liverpool for these repairs to be repaired. Hit a Roo on my way home so my f truck has a slightly dented bar and my led light bar was left dragging along the road (still works though!). Picked the trailer up when I finally got to Newcastle and then headed to my place to pick up the g6... The bloody ramps were too short to get my car on!. Returned the trailer to find out I won't get a cent of my $140 back despite only having it for 1hr.So stuff it. Ill just let the workshop off the hook and get it fixed in Newcastle!. I just pulled the oil filter apart and the O ring was squashed so bad it was cut practically right through!. Think ill order the earls filter and fit it after all.Think ill just get some sleep for now as my head isn't right at the moment!.All that for a bloody o ring and probably a temporarily stuck footfall valve!

Treay Member 29 Member For: 16y 4m 2d Gender: Male Location: Stockton, NSW Posted 20/07/13 12:23 PM Author Share Posted 20/07/13 12:23 PM Yeah I'm just over it. Purchased high pressure and high temp o rings today and put some heat shielding up to mount it on as the location it is in that little filter gets sh*t hot!.Took it for a drive with a combination of stop start and open road over 2 hours and it still had no leaks so I'm hoping its fixed. I didn't have time to wash the engine bay today as I had to get back to work ASAP so with another 500 trip ahead of me I parked it up as is til I get back next week. Then ill give it a big going over.Cheers guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
