Hi I'm new to he owners club and am after some technical advice please.
I've just bought my friends 2006 manual car which had hydraulic'd the engine when his wife drove through a deep puddle.
I've bought a replacement engine from e bay, which when it arrived turned out to be from an automatic car . I've fitted a new dual mass and clutch and fitted the engine . All went well until I went to attach the cam adjuster selenoid plugs.
The ones from my car loom don't fit, they both have two wires but the pins in the plugs are smaller on the replacement motor.
So I stripped the rocker and side casings to swap the selenoids but found them different.
Does anyone know if the auto,s are different or if they had an upgrade on model years , are the plug ends available ?
Or any other solution to my problem.
Thanks for any help or advice
