MattP Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Shit mate I would have gave you my power steering pump if it wasnt sold bear with it though as I began loosing the love just before my supra died and now I miss it so much I went and bought a new one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Possibly front crank seal? Sounds like what happened to mine when it went As for the PS going......could be the PAS pump, or crank pulley also gives the same symptoms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra steveo Posted July 23, 2013 Author Share Posted July 23, 2013 no couldn't be the front crank seal as i asked Paul Whiffin to replace the crank seals before the engine was fitted in December, it also sounds like the car is ever so slightly misfiring, it sounded ok when i had it TTC'ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trebor69 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I've said this before and I'll say it again ....I keep thinking about getting a TT but it just seems as though more and more Turbo owners are always having issues and to tell you the truth , it's putting me off !!! I love the reliability of my N/A and am now thinking of also getting a standard Skyline to play with ........keeping my supra obviously . Sorry to hear you're having problems dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
