Hey everyone
just in a pickle could I please get some advice on what to do next
so I have a r33 been built/tuned at 1000hp in 2021 and have done approximately 500-1000km. It’s on e85, i went to have a look over it and noticed there is a little bit of oil in the radiator on the weekend…
hope I haven’t done a head.
car is idling normal and drives fine. Doesn’t over heat,smoke or anything etc.
I rang the engine builder but I get the vibe that no matter what it is, they will say “oh we didn’t replace that when we done the build” or something. I could take it back to the workshop but it’s 8 hours away and I’m worried I’m gonna get stuck with the bill, if the motor is stuffed. They did give me 6 month’s warranty but I would of done 200km in that period as it had a few issues at the start.. tps sensor and heat soak etc.
am I better off taking my chances and get him to look at it as he built it or am I better off taking it to crd or somewhere and get them to pull it apart and identify what is wrong just incase it is a machining job or something? Cause I doubt an any workshop would actually admit if they bugged something up?
Is every workshop like this.. once they build it they don’t wanna be responsible if anything goes wrong at all? I could understand if it was 5000km or something but not 500km?
please see attachment of oil in radiator and bleeder tank..
that bleeder tank was making a weird noise early on the scene but I sent it to him and he said it was normal.. is this correct?
any info would be much appreciated
was gonna flush radiator etc and change oil and re start the car and see if any oil pops up. Is it possible for it to be something small like residue from somewhere off the old build? Used the original cooling system that was on the fir
