I will replace any pipes that are easier to do with the motor out as a 'while we are in there' job.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have had my car for 4 years, Last week the time came to pull the motor, it had an idle rattle/ grumble and plastic in the filter and sump as well as a minor amount of 'silver' metal. Nothing major was wrong, but the chain guides were chewed up and a tensioner shot. 104 k - but new bottom end fitted under warranty by OPC at about 35k due to incurable oil leak, poor case fitting. So it already has the beefed up 997 style IMS shaft and bearing - no play at all, bores were great except some recent plastic shrapnel scuffs. Heads look great. Metal was probably from a crank thrust bearing, one of which was a little scuffed up....thank goodness the crank looks brand new - which i had been worried about. While the motor is being rebuilt, the indy i use have kindly said i can have a lift for a day or two to clean and waxoil ( or equiv ) the underside and arches. Any tips on what to use, things to do / not do? I will replace any pipes that are easier to do with the motor out as a 'while we are in there' job. Big question is what is the best priduct to protect the underside going forward. For a 19 year old car it is not too tatty at all, but i expect i will find some rust. Many thanks.

POST 2Original post

Hi Sounds like a lucky escape! I think the best anti rust products are from the Valvoline Tectyl range. Followed by Dinitrol. Clean off things like brake pipes and spray spay spray! All the best Berni

POST 3Original post

Underside protection I've just done my 2001 Carrera 4.. I used a combination of 1.ACF-50 2.Dinitrol Corroheat 4010 3. Bilt Hamber Dynax UB & Dynax S50 . All great products for specific areas of the car
