Urgent R32 Gts-t Dead

[carlie]

Ok i need some advice/help

Today while driving my car it started making a tapping noise, the noise got very loud so i pulled over and there was smoke coming out of the left side of the motor not much just a tad :flamed:

I decided to get my car towed, i havent yet got it looked at but i am looking towards the worst, the car still turns and starts but wont keep going for long, how much do new motors for an r32 gts-t cost.

It sounds like the car has no compression :ghost:

sorry if this sounds like no sence but i am writing it in a hurry in hope for some advice

thanks heaps

Thanks dr drift

someone has actually mentioned to me that my welsh plugs are stuffed could this be the cause (i did just have one replaced) how many welsh plugs do they have?

also my car lost all the water and it hasnt gone into the motor cause i can see its all on the bottom of the floor of the engine.

also what are the symptoms if it is something to do with the pistons, sorry i may sound silly but i honestly dont have a clue

There's around 20 something plugs... could be the cause of the lost water, but not the cause of the tapping noise...

Call me on 0411 878 961 and I'll try and work out what the problem is over the phone. Could be pistons or valvetrain.

are you sure you didnt overheat it and blow a head gasket?

eg lost coolant (from welsh plug or hose etc) and cooked the motor

i done this once in with my 350 chev wasnt paying attention to my temp gauge, before i knew it i done a head gasket

If you're gonna replace the engine... do an RB25DET conversion while you're there.... it will cost a lil more but hey, why not improve while you're there?... ... just my 2c
