Can anyone repost the DIY Valve adjustment from a while back? It was really good and had pics and all and then it got lost in the crash i think. Was going to tackle the valves soon, but couldn't find it. Thanks

I found one buried in another post. If you go to the DIY section and find the post by Jimmyjames called "replacing your intake cam" I think it's on the 3rd page of DIY forums, you'll see down near the bottom, he has a pretty detailed write up on the process.

Hope it helps,

I'm thinking it might need to be re-typed, or that link needs to be fixed. Whichever comes first. :mtongue:

Great DIY but are the clearances for the A2 going to be the same as the A3?

I just downloaded the service manual and I think these are the correct numbers:

Valve Clearance (cold): Intake - .21-.25mm
Exhaust - .28-.32mm

Intake is the same as the A2 but the exhaust is .03mm higher on the A3.
