| Post subject: | Berti Under the microscope |
As a few of you may be aware I have been having some problems with Berti (yes Berti) I have had oil loss probs, oil leak probs, water leak probs, overheating probs. then she drives fine and as quick as you know it back to the problems again. Anyway I have booked her in for next Tuesday for the following:- Full Diagnostics check Oil pressure & leak test Water leak test Compression test Full engine / electrical check The bloke at Mazda though I was a nut lol, i just know theres something amiss somewhere but cant pin point it. Anyway thought i would let you know she be going in next tuesday AM and hopefully after that I will know where we stand... my thoughts at the moment are leading to engine rebuild, but they will prob tell me nothing is seriously wrong lol. |

I think mine is having a problem with drinking oil. Was reading bottom level of the dipstick, and I seem to do oil changes every 3,000 miles because of the lifters, but now i realise its the lack of oil! Damn |

Well She has been in and the results are as follow:- Compression Test - Fine all between 175 and 185 Water Pressure test - slight leak from Water pump Couldnt find anything wroing with performance, reckon engine is fine Couldnt spot an oil leak anywhere So all in all nothing really too bad, apart from the £320 its gonna cost me for a new water pump inc fitting .. dohh. |

Shop around - I'm sure you can find a reputable garage who can do it for less ! By the way, unless you did your cam-belt in the last 10,000 miles, I'd suggest you fit a new one while they're at it - it has to come off to get at the water pump anyway. (and the drive belts, while you're at it ...) |
