Mk10 creep

You likely can find a MK-5 as a donor that has the old turret, and thus justifies a dirt cheap price....

(I only now realized it was a MK-5 as a discussion - title was 10, and I missed the correction...)

Or mk7

Guys, The MK5/6/7/8 have the same piston.
The MK9/10 have the same piston but different than above.
FWIW the MK20 & 25 have interchangeable pistons.

Received micro mesh but now after looking at the knife edge closer, I’m wondering if it’s actually repairable?

I have a few old 2 port MK5's that I haven't opened up yet... I can check if one has a good piston I can send you. If you're interested, let me know... I'm finishing up the seat savers for you, so I could throw it in with those.
Then you can still try to fix that one for a spare!

Respectfully,

James

Or mk7

Bought this as NOS, everything but the piston is in perfect condition. Pooh

If anyone has one for sale I would love to buy. The rest of the reg is in perfect condition, not sure why the piston is in the condition it’s in.

I'll crack open the older MK5s I have and let you know... If I have a good one for you, I'll expect my usual rates (help someone else when you can)!

Stuff like that happens when a shop pooches a service on someone's gear, they quick scavenge a part, and then forget to follow up with getting the part again... It is set aside to not be sold until fixed, and is lost. So is the history...

First one I opened looks good to me... I'm just looking with a hand magnifying glass, but looks good and passes the fingernail test. In the picture, what looks like a nick is just the bathroom lights reflecting... I rotated it to verify. If you agree, then it's getting packed up for you.
