Rolls Royce Phantom VII and Rolls Royce Ghost Engine rebuilds
N73, V12, N74, V12 engines
On Rolls Royce Phantom VII and Ghost fitted in models from 2003 to 2017, they develop blue smoke while idling and pulling away after a stop at traffic lights, you will also have high oil consumption resulting in poor performance. Your miles per gallon will also be significantly reduces. these issues are due to failed valve stem seals.
These engines are also known to leak coolant from the front timing case cover, this is known as the coolant transfer pipe leak.
They also develop a massive oil leak from the passenger side just behind the alternator, this oil leak is known as the alternator bracket gasket oil leak.
