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.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

So I'm replacing the AOS. I tried taking the intake off but couldn't get the last bolt, so I took the AOS off from the back. After it was off I figure it would be easier to reinstall and hook up the hoses with the intake off and I can easily get that last bolt, so I take the intake off and what do I find? _DSC0017.JPG _DSC0018.JPG _DSC0019.JPG _DSC0022.JPG I guess this has been leaking since they replaced the vacuum reservoir a couple of years ago. I'll have to replace the rubber union that was damaged when they cinched down the clamp. I was going to just install the AOS and be done. Glad I decided to remove the intake.

POST 2Original post

That's pretty easy to do, it's tight in there. I removed the intakes when I did my AOS, as well, cleaned them out and the intakes inlets onth eheads. Allowed inspection of the valve tops.

POST 3Original post

Then those become soaked with oil the petroleum breaks them down and softens them. I would have replaced those.

POST 4Original post

So two years after the fact you are blaming the dealer? Good luck.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ordered the new sleeve - arrives Friday along with the new o-rings for the intake.

POST 6Original post

That's nothing. When I had the clutch replaced in my C4S, my mechanic had to fix three broken/crossthreaded bolts he came across when removing the transmission. The only other time any of those parts had been removed? When the first clutch was replaced by the dealer...

POST 7Original post

It's easy to make this mistake when the engine is in the car.
