Back in a ZS

chrismyatt82 · 21-01-11, 09:55 PM

Picked up my new ZS 120+ tonight after sadly selling my ZS 180

Got a very good deal and very happy with it, its in red this time as opposed to Green

Only 2 concerns I have.... first is on the engine there is a little oil leak on the left hand side, the guy said it may need a new rocker cover... could this be right and if so what kind of costs am I looking at?

The other one was the battery was flat as it hadnt been used for some time and wouldnt start, got the jump leads out and got her going, filled up at the station and was fine... long 110 mile drive hopefully got the altenator going and should be OK, if not then I will get a new battery

The car also has a big stainless steel backbox that males a nice sporty noise from the rear... not quite the same as revving the V6, but beggars cant be choosers!

oil leak will either be the rocker cover gasket or the cam ladder, the rocker gasket is an easy change about ?10 and an 8mm socket and ratchet to change it lol

get some piccys up

Nope!

Ive been bitten lol

Just been out to fit my in car phone holder and also to tune the TV in (came with built in car DVD/FM Tuner/TV Tuner, not bad)... and the colour looks really good... I dont think that picture does it justice... will try and get it cleaned tomorrow

Looks pretty clean from that photo, red always does.

Nice car mate, and its got r45 headlights too. A set of skirts and a splitter would make a big difference. I have a pair of green skirts that Stephen gave me, I know they are the wrong colour but you can have them for the price of postage if you want.

Looks tidy mate, hopefullly she will give you plenty reliable motoring

Dan1971 · 22-01-11, 08:48 AM

Skirts for the postage and a can of spray and a set of straights and your sorted. Nice car mate -
