Title: Windscreen to Scuttle seal
Post by: VXL V6 on 17 September 2011, 17:41:20

Noticed that the one on the V6 isn't secure in the centre. Any ideas how to force it to click in firmly without resorting to screen smashing methods?

how bad is it, can get window seal use'd it before and worked, have to push down on it for about 10mins till it hardens in place.

I used sikaflex (black) on my old 2.2, messy but worked.

There us no need for goo. Remove scuttle and push the seal back on, it clips on to the screen edge in such a way that needs the scuttle off to do it. As I recall.

It will be letting rain water in and onto the coils pacs, so might be worth some investigation there too. Expect miss fire on 246 bank if it's a v engine.

Once re seated it will be fine with no leaks ime.
