feck_on_a_stick Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I've discovered the sump on my VTI-S is rotten. Boooooo I'm about to start looking for a new sump, but the guy who is doing the work for me said that there are steel ones and alloy ones, and maybe the DC2 sumps are alloy. Will any B18/B16 sump fit? Does anyone know if the DC2 ones are alloy, and would they fit ok? I'm thinking purely for longevity, even though I doubt I'll own the car longer than a year or two so shouldn't have any more bother with it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feck_on_a_stick Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 Near made a mess in my pants when I rang Honda to discover a new sump is £198 and gasket an additional £50 VAG sumps are soooooo much cheaper but I guess that's due to all the Sc3ne folks wrecking theirs so plenty of demand lol. Anyways I've just bought a used B18C sump so don't fret about answering the above unless anyone wants to for future reference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
