Hello all ,

Im happy tobe with u and i hope to get your help

I had Roomster 1.6 petrol engine 3 months ago , when i was checking my engine it was looking normal but few days ago i noticed that it looks SLANTED to the right !





is that normal ?

and if somebody own the same car would capture his engine and show it to me here I'll be thankfull

Welcome

I am sure there will be another owner along soon to verify.

It isn't normal IMO...

I guess the rubber mounting of the engine fails..

Since 3 years I'm surfing through different Roomster forums, I never see that kind of problem.

Did you contact your dealer?

Check this link and following pages, you will see lot of same engines...

The Honest John review of the Roomster contains the following in the "Bad points" section:

"Engine mounting bolts prone to shearing and engine dropping out. Get them checked."

We showed the report to our dealer who had never heard of this so don't panic - but could it be relevant?

All looks a little worrying,I think my engine seems to slant a bit the same. (4k miles). dr_druggist, please report back, before I go into panic mode. :eek:

My 1.6 Roomster is 6 months old - it has exactly the same tilt - always has had - let us know what the dealer says.

If the engine mounts had failed on one side, you would soon know!. I suspect it's part of the design.

I am now thinking you are right. I looked at another roomster the other day and that had the same tilt. infants photo is taken at too high an angle to judge.

hi all and am sooooo sorry for being too late coz i had million of things in the last 3 weeks add i had an accident with my another car "Sirion" but it's okay .

about Roomster and my visit to my local Dealer , they confirmed that all Roomster models are the same and it's a part of the engine design !!

of course this is rare but we have nothing to do and thank god that it's a normal case .
