More xe questions (i might get some progress at this rate lol)

[Spudly]

Right peeps ive been looking on the 'auto-vaux' website and frankly its not much good (for a start they have 'glow-plugs' listed in the c20xe/c20let section LOL!)


And they dont list what im looking for, nor most bits commonly found on XE's such as exhaust manifolds and a few other vital components:eek:


But anyways, im looking for a set of exhaust manifold studs as most of mine are shot and three are missing, so were going to replace them, anyone suggest where i can get some from, preferably with a link and or prices pretty please, ive done a search on here and googled this aswell, QED came up as the top few hits on google but their site is down and seems to have a Lol-cat with a screwdriver fixing it according to the pic on their site lol


Any help will be appreciated peeps:thumb:

Vauxhall do them mate and Autovaux's web site is crap it's better to ring them half the stuff isn't listed they will do em more than likely and be cheaper than the dealers

But its not a mechanical question, its a where can i get one of these from question :p




Might have to give vaux a ring then see if theyre any help, id ring autovaux Rich, but it just seems a bit pointless to me as ive got no idea IF they do what i want, nor an idea on price, so if they listed things on their site im sure they would get more calls tbh lol

The copper nuts? I've got some new vag ones (12mm head as opposed the vauxhalls 13) you can have for postage?

[Jeff16v]

I got a full set of studs and nuets for mine spud, they do stock them. Always ring them, the website has hardly anything on it. Great company.

Also, look on mig for jav786 iic, he does genuine studs and nuts. look for thread with rebuild parts in for sale.

Studs make the manifold a ball ache to remove / fit - take them out & use bolts.

Thats just making things harder IMO, as its far easier to fit a manifold with studs in the block already. (weight v's gravity v's fitting on your own)
