VR6, single spade connector, what does it connect to?

If the supply voltage warning comes up AND you do NOT have a bad battery then you either need to clean up the abs connector plug or you have a dodgy relay or a dodgy ignition barrel perhaps?The rest points to a bad abs pump unit and obviously the sensors themselves, but work on getting rid of the voltage one first.
A Corrado is for life, not just for the MOT.
Thanks, the battery is fresh. Faulty ignition barrel? How would that affect the ABS? Intermittent power?

Evening all,
So my 8v has an inconsistent intermittent ABS light on, sometimes from cold start it's on, sometimes not, sometimes comes on when driving.
I had it scanned and the faults cleared, the same faults recur immediately. Besides the wheel sensor can you fine people shed any light on what the others might be?

Part No: 1H0 907 379 D

Sounds good - at least you know you will be getting all the right parts. Let us know how you get on. Are you doing the clutch as well?The kit has arrived from Vince, he took out all the guess work.
I am doing the clutch as well, it probably needs the clutch more than the chains but I hear a strange little rattle under load which could be chain/tensioner related and I'd like to rule it out.

Thanks for the info
-
..where does the time go!?-Sunroof seal replaced
-Cracked centre console replaced
-Blown speakers replaced
-Alpine head unit fitted
-Headlining replaced - Materials purchased from http://www.martrim.co.uk/ cost no more than £45
Which speakers did you use as replacements?
-
I have a moonlight blue 8v as my winter daily, seems a lot of the 8v were moonlight blue

Thanks for the input folks,I was speaking to Vince today, I'll be ordering all from him to make sure all parts are correct.
-
If you want the revised tensioner you have to give them the right part number. They won't look it out for you.A Corrado is for life, not just for the MOT.
Thanks Matt, would you know that part number by any chance?
-
I bought the revised timing chain kit from Stealth, Vince had it in stock and on the shelf - gaskets I bought ether from Heritage or Main Stealer, all have been listed/sold as genuine VW and all have been Elring.Thanks Geeba, I'll give them a shout
-
Did you ask the dealer? Don't think VW parts cost much more and I have heard that the gaskets in particular are better quality.A Corrado is for life, not just for the MOT.
Good advice, for some reason I thought that nearly all parts were obsolete from VW but below are prices they came back with today, I am unsure if these are the newer style parts or not. List is from the Wiki here. Can anyone confirm?

Hi folks
I think this is the kit that I need for my '95 VR: http://www.arz-tuning.de/shop/en/timing-chain-kit-incl-shaft-seal-valve-cover-gasket-sealing-compound-vw-vr6-engine-aaa-abv-aes
Can anyone vouch for the quality, has anybody bought one of these?
Any advise welcome
Thanks
-
Hi there, could do potentially, but would need to investigate a bit and let you know. If someone a bit closer was interested I might take that option just for simplicity, but I'll try to come back to you tomorrow if that's ok? Got a postcode or similar to work with?pm'd you last night dukest
-
Could you ship to Ireland? Or leave it available for courier collection? If so I'll take it

Bilt Hamber, Bilt Hamber, Bilt Hamber. That is all

By any chance does anybody know what weight Vento Cup wheels are?
Thanks

The Bentley has an excellent CL diagnosis procedure
-
It usually displays 99.9 if defective or disconnected I think. Don't know why it would have disappeared all together. Is it the same on trip and total (1 & 2)?Its been so long since I used my car I can't remember if its displayed on both! lol.
Yes it's the same on MFA 1 & 2, I really can't remember if it was there before, this car only comes out for the winter. I think it was but would like to hear from another 8v owner. I can't see why it would be any different to VRs and the others though. Maybe a disconnect and reconnect of the battery would be worth a try

I only bought the chain kit from him, and a cheeky BMC intake. TBH without rooting out the invoice I can't remember exactly how much as I bought so many parts from all over at the same time. If I come across it I'll let you know
