Just to add, it is no. 18 bolt. But it doesn't run that way and doesn't have a nut on the end. It runs from the left of red arrow and bolts into the charger bracket. ---------- Sent from iPhone 4S using Tapatalk

Nah, I wish I had got as far as throwing the alternator on haha. This damned bolt (Aren't they all on the CorradNo?) Runs through the (or part of) the power steering bracket into the charger bracket basically. Right at the very bottom of the charger bracket. I'd go and grab a pic but I'll just end up arguing with the car...So I modified this one a bit. Edit: The vagcat pic isn't very helpful tbh, it's not quite right as it shows incorrect brackets/bolts for the g60.

Frigging nightmare ain't it mate. My hands/arms are knackered, oh and to top it off, when I went to first investigate this leak, the bonnet cable snapped. I've never had a problem before even though it's an utter ar3e hole of a job. This is where the bolt runs. It first goes through the bracket in my first pic, then through a spacer and bolts into the charger bracket. But it's 5mm away from being lined up with the threaded hole in the charger bracket.

Believe me I've lost my rag with it...Very nearly let the handbrake off and laughed as it rolled down the hill. I just can't understand why the bracket pictured won't line up with the charger bracket. Pop the bolt in (Shows a nut on the pic for some bloody reason) and the end of the bolt is like 5mm off of the hole in the charger bracket, which sits perfectly flush against the water pump!? Is the bracket (pic) bolted through elongated holes or something? Can't get under the car as it broke down outside the house and I've no jack etc. Have done everything from above and crawling on my back, just about getting my arm through the wheel arch. (Stupidly low)

Currently changing the water pump on the g60 for the fourth! Yes, fourth time. Never had a problem doing it before but for some reason I just can not get the charger bracket to line up with the hole in the bracket arrowed. The only thing I've done different this time around is fit a new p-steering belt. I hate working on these things.

Hi, are the below still available? Or will they be available again? Thanks, Neil. G60/VR6 Radiator elbow & Seal Glovebox cover strip Rear Number Plate Light Cover - Also includes x3 stainless steel screws and rubber washers*

Strangely, the dealer told me today that he has been able to order a bonnet cable :-/ Thought they had been obsolete for some time now so maybe I'm lucky there.
-
Cheers for that :-) I've had gsf ones before and they didn't last very long at all :-( Have just bought some from AVS so I'll have to see what they are like. Can't believe something like a top strut mount is obsolete!
-
Not impressed :-( Today i went to the dealers to be told that the top mounts for my late style g60 are no longer available, with no replacement part. What the hell am I supposed to do? I can't use vr6 ones according to this thread as I run konigsports > http://direct.the-corrado.net/showthread.php?12555-Where-to-find-Bonrath-Top-Mounts-or-Similar but tbh I'm unsure which ones I actually have on there at the moment (Can't get on vagcat as per :scratch:) I've used none oem in the past and I never wanted to use them again because they lasted two minutes. I went into the dealers with a big list of parts I need and was shocked at how many are obsolete, it's becoming way too much hard work to maintain a corrado.

Very kind, thanks Ian. Neil. ---------- Sent from iPhone 4S using Tapatalk

Cheers mate, is that definitely right? (In other words I can't tell who's taking the **** and who's not!) ---------- Sent from iPhone 4S using Tapatalk

Hi lads, I could do with a confirmation that the following chassis number is a late one? wvwzzz50znk011569 I'm pretty sure the 'N' means it is? But I'm on my phone so can't search very well. The car is a 92 G60 btw, but I know it could still be early or late. Cheers, Neil. ---------- Sent from iPhone 4S using Tapatalk

Breaking Black non sunroof 1995 Corrado L041 parts pag 1
Riley replied to voo51's topic in Cars for Breaking
Hi mate, I'd like details/pics/info on the front bumper please.:thumbleft: Can you confirm it is definitely a late bumper and paint code LO41 (Gloss black, not metallic) Ideally looking for one without any damage at all. May well also be interested in: Front panel/rad support and the front subframe/engine carrier (bare and on their own). Mirrors if the glass is perfect. All side mouldings, or possibly just the passenger door one. Thanks, Neil. -
