    J'attends avec impatience vos photos. Il faut espérer que nous pouvons vous fournir l'assistance nécessaire.

    and Benny_C, the google translation of your text goes as follows
    LMAO! You boys I do not cracking up? end! If only I spoke to the french that I could participate on your pitreries. A stamp Side could indicate a line attached to or turbo which is pierced. Well, I missed the french for the moment. BTW, the French are not gays? my opinion. Viva La Z!

    I guess a lot is lost in the translation. Google has a long way to go for sure :D

    You guys crack me up!!. Good to see some humor in amongst these problems.

    He may be referring to one of the turbo return lines to the sump I think.

    i would assume your talking about the rocker covers. the inner most covers have rubber gaskets, the outermost covers use a silicon sealant from factory and after 10 plus years its very common for them to leak!

    LOL, now it all becomes clear. :D

    I havent ever removed that seal but it looks fun. Maybe the guys who have put the leader gears in can add to this.

    Most here would just swap Diffs if this leaked. Its probably cheaper. :bash:

    Hi Tekie,

    There appears to be a very large crack in the Diff Cover which would be a potential oil leak waiting to happen.
    Maybe sourcing another Diff would be a much better solution, altogether.

    Cheers

    Service Manual isn't much help:
    You might need to try asking on www.twinturbo.net

    Good luck.

    Undo the 6 bolts (14mm from memory) that hold the driveshaft to the flange then the driveshaft will just swing out of the way far enough to remove the side flange. The flange will just pull straight out but you may need to tap on it a bit with a slide hammer or similar, it has an internal clip holding it in place. Alternatively you can gently pry it out.

    I just came back from 3 weeks in France. My Daughter is in Clermont-Ferrand on student exchange for 12 months.

    I have to tell you what a lovely country France is. Except for Marseille. That place is a major dump.

    We only saw 1 Z32 in the whole trip. It looked like a wreck. It was at St Charles Gare in Marseille. Everyone must park them in garages over there.

    Central France has some of the best winding roads I have ever driven on. Especially in the national park on the way to Mende. Took me almost 2 hours to drive 80 klms, the road is Awesome.

    How good is the new bridge at Millau ?? Fantastic piece of engineering.

    We are coming back soon :D

    Hi!!
    I'm glad you like it (except Marseille, I'm agree:D). I'm just at 2 hours drive from Clermont.
    I went to Tasmania last year, nice winding roads too!
    Cheers:)
