Very good advice helped me changed my switch over the other night with no problems others than a bumped head on the brake pedal ! :mad:

FINALLY did the little bastard !!! the screw was a sod to find, because i actually have a passat steering coloum and the screw was hidden so i had to snap the old switch out to get to it anyway the new switch is it and its all back together and im happy, for now :) cheers all !

im having trouble finding the screw, can someone tell/show me exactly where it is? ta

cheers, knew it was 1 swtich !!

ive read the sticky and it didnt help me see the photo below, i got a new ignition switch because of my intermitant starting problem and its ok now, but its still hanging below the steering wheel what do i need to do to take the old one out and fit the new one thats hanging down thanks

yes altho i struggled to stick mine back on as they were so heavy nothing seemed strong enough?

leon cupra, you would get a decent one with around 40k for that money whereas you the golfs are better built and hold value better but wont have as low mileage

hey jim i always found my rado petrol tank to change depending on whether i was accelerating/braking and i bet it isnt near empty when it says it is!

so what can cause the soggy, porridge like gear change.

hey havnt been on here for a while.. my local had a drive in my rado and said the gear linkage was worn (this is the lack of klink-klink you get when you change gear, yes?) in the slightly porridge like gear change down to worn linkage ? if so, is it expensive to replace ? regards

cheers all !

:sleeping:

hi :) question; can larger than standard size corrado door sill kick plates be got hold and fitted properly to the corrado? i want to remove my standard black plastic ones and fit some longer than standard ones regards

Uhm.. no need, they are Welsh :)

imagine looking like either of those 2 :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

i got a warning today for taking the cars out :? :roll:

the areoplane like thrust more than makes up for that :D

i still hold the opinion that the Impreza is the most stupid looking car on the road today. but i wont go into it.

I am probably showing off but, who cares?.. valeted one of these for the showroom (its for sale at £98k) some time ago http://www.mbusa.com/brand/models/CL600C.jsp Feels slower than the 55 AMG's but its V12 is just a lot smoother (and quiter) still undoubtly faster though :!:

Stratford 'upon Avon' 8) The CL 55 is slow!!

Dalj-> yea m8 update: Drove an E55 AMG on Friday, this thing is quicker than an SL, the acceleration is STUPID!! :lol: Engine Type dohc supercharged V8 Powertrain Layout front engine/rwd Displacement, cc 5439 Horsepower@rpm 469@6100 Torque, lb-ft@rpm 516@2650-4500 Curb Weight, lb 4200 est. 0-60 mph, sec 4.3 1/4 mile, sec@mph 12.5@116 0-100 mph, sec 9.9 70-0 mph, ft 173 Top Speed, mph 155 quote "Mercedes says this transmission shifts 35 percent faster than the previous unit. It's also about as sporty as an automatic transmission could ever be and adds up to a 4.3 second 0-60mph, thus making the E55 quicker than the DIY manual M5 (and also a few supercars for good measure). At full gallop the E55 AMG is untouchable." No Shit Sherlock!
