    Loosen the crank pulley bolt before taking the engine out.

    Warmed up the engine in order to carry out the compression check before
    start of the service.

    Although I managed to push back all pistons at the front calipers,
    the movement was not consistent.

    And as expected, there is no way I can re-use them……


    None of the caliper slider pins were seized so it looked like someone serviced them in
    the past but not quite.

    Coolant header tank was already cracked at several places but magically,
    it was not leaking yet.

    It will be replaced any way during the full cooling system OH.

    Oil pressure gauge was showing almost 0kg/cm2 at idle rpm after warmed up.

    Even during the test driving session, it was showing only around 2kg/cm2.

    I could replace the oil pressure sender unit to the later spec while
    the engine is out of the car but the accuracy of this ensor
