Big Help Needed

[Scottish_Gaz]

looking to buy another car but the guy has dented the sump so the car is making a loud tappidy sound now. they said it could be that the engine not picking up enough oil or the oil pick is f*****!!! Is this a big job or what? should i bother or not

if there is oil starvation and the engine is being run its more than likely going to need a new engine.

a fool and his money can be parted very easy! sounds to cheep. if you can get it for 500 then its a bargain all day long. new engine and your lookin all in all 1000 max. thats mint for a 106 gti :)

no, there not driving it due to the wishbone being bent

[Scottish_Gaz]

so if there not driving it, then ya reckon it should be ok if sump is replaced?

[RICKYP-RPM]

depends how long its run with the low oil presure,

[jpsaxo]

oil pumps are quite expensive, could be loads of things though, not just the oil pick up!

[RICKYP-RPM]

if its cheap and your not getting it pm me i might be interested
