nubee1974 Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 I have a 2000. Main one for me is the gearbox oil becoming milky due to the waterpump seals becoming worn. It's nothing major and easy to do. I'd just check and change your oil often enough to keep an eye on it. Replace the seals when needed CP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many just put the later years on them, 02-03 or later in silver rather than blue up to '05. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copemech Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Would the water pump seals make water go a sort of light purple colour? No, I would think that due to the coolant(antifreeze)used. You doo need that you know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
