Hello

Apologies in advance . Not sure the best way to describe this and the location but will do my best .

 

I have noticed a leak around/ inside the chassis side rail . It was a slow drip but was finding it beneath as well before I cleaned it a few days ago. I cleaned it best I could as pictured. I also followed the plastic hose casing up to behind the driver side front  wheel (other side of chassis to brakes) . Hope that makes sense .  I noticed the leak but couldn’t really pinpoint to where and suspect it’s the reason I’m finding it in my chassis railing. 
 

the black hosing pictured looks a bit cracked but not sure if that’s really the source . I have taken a photo of the chassis railing today as well and can see there is some sort of leak coming from it. Anyone recognise what I’m looking at here?

 

thanks 

Ez

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
