Nice! Still cant figure out how you managed to only snap one of the little ears in the actuator!

Part luck for sure - but also after fully removing the door assembly the catch on it also cracked some and flexed extra so it’s probably what helped allow the pressure to snap the one off. Also what’s not visible in the photos is the way my actuator broke is the reason I had room to easily get in between it. When inspecting them back to back the bad one pretty much seized up like 8mm out from the normally locked position and it doesn’t slide in or out when you try it.

I'm looking to get some Neuspeed RSE10s but for some reason I feel like I saw them on sale at Modded Euros for around $315 per (from $369) a while back. They are currently on sale for $350. Anyone know if they've seen the price that low before, or am I just tripping?

Also noticed a lot oil on the oil pan yesterday, any ideas what it could be from? Found a similar pic on Reddit and they thought it could be the drain plug which I haven't replaced in years because I have an extractor

I had the same problem. Actually still have it as I’m too busy to tackle it. It comes from the timing chain cover gasket.

I gotta look because I'm paranoid, but is this just a weep/normal thing or is it something that needs to be/should be addressed?
