Well if your going to be blunt/rude so will I. First of all use the search function. That's what's it's there for. Every single question/post/thread you've asked in the few days youve been here has been asked before numerous times and you could have found that out if you'd only bothered to look. The vanos isn't a 1 day job, nothing like it but to be honest you can find that out for self now.eddiemunster wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2018 12:29 amYou can't easily demonstrate that a worn turbo seal was having an impact either, but you can prove that the seal was worn and therefore it wasn't operating correctly.
I know you're only trying to help, but, I don't need advice on how the law works, that has been my job for the last 20 years: what I need is a rough estimate of the cost of replacing the vanos seals.

You do seem to think you have all the answers here and can be wrong but I still don't see how your evidencing an actual fault. All you've got so far is your perceived opinion based on a Internet diagnosis that there's a issue but you not established there is and even if you went ahead with replacing the vanos seals and presented them to the car supplier you still haven't demonstrated an actual failure, just some wear, the part could still be performing. But hey what do I know I've only got 25 years experience in this field
