    Thanks everyone. I did find that and ordered 1, plus a spare.... And I ordered the cheap little rubber to fit in the end too. Which also fits under the handbrake too. Definitely not the weather to be in a cold Garage though

    Whist trawling classic parts I found this
  3. Cressa
    Good suggestion, thanks

    I don't suppose you can find the part number. I always like a delivery from Classic parts 😇

    Boxing day, but let's not waste time. I swapped over the tailgate struts and I am happy with their power. A quick job that only left me with a missing circlip as it pinged off th the back of the garage into a pile of junk. I'd rather get a replacement than spend 3hrs looking through that mess. And I also found my tailgate popper was broken 😢 Very disappointed with that. The search begins..... so if anyone can help, please shout up 👍

    NOOOOO. Gutted for you

    I looked outside this morning, and Santa had not brought me your Campaign

    That car is a thing of beauty 😍

    Santa brought me some tailgate struts. I read somewhere these are possibly the oe supplier. They look the part anyway. Next job is to fit then, so I shall post up when done. I may still get the originals refurbished, which was my original plan

    I do love the look of leather and how easy it is to clean. I put some in my mk3 16v GTi years ago. Then hated cold mornings and hot days... They do finish a Corrado off nicely, especially when wired in and warm👌

    That is one great looking motor . Even better that after nearly 5 years you put this up. Great registration too. I have a Vr, but it was a G60 that got me into wanting a Orrado

    We need to keep this Forum alive 💪. The information available on here is 2nd to none. I too am guilty of not posting enough as it's a pain to use still. But Have a great Christmas and enjoy your Corrado. Whether it's tucked up inside, or out being used. They are ours and great fun. I hope you have all have a nice Corrado present too

    Time away, but I do still check in. I have enjoyed having the Corrado constantly taxed and insured, so I can drive it when I feel like it. This last week she has been out for 4 days in horrible weather's. Bloody filthy but faultless and enjoyable driving surprisingly. Great fun I hope you are all well and looking forward to Christmas 🎄. Take care people and keep enjoying your Corrado

    Everything fendervg said. I'd happily reuse those if well packed. What make of Bearing did you use? I used some rubbish ones initially, due to cost. I later swapped them for FAG I think, or the oem maker. The difference was instantly noticeable when driving. Good luck in narrowing it down

    Looks great. Are the handles genuine VW ones? I had a mk3 golf 16v years ago and found that VW did chrome ones for the convertible, so swapped them. They do feel better than plastic
  16. Cressa
    You've been busy. I like the little chrome touches. A work of art for the parcel shelf straps 👍

    I had changed my leads and that's when I got the poor tickover issue. Originally I thought they were faulty, but maybe they just wanted a new coil pack to be happy 😂 It is nice to have it running and starting, thankfully. That's an impressive length of ownership 👍
  18. Cressa
    Changing my coilpack helped with a bad time I went through with my poor tickover. But could be a lot of other items...from cam sensor,crank sensor etc. When my car was warm, it became a pig to start. I put a one way valve at the pump, but did end up replacing my pump. I think they are tired at this age. That cured my starting issue, but pretty sure Matt on here did something else. It's a money pit, but still a lovely one. Good luck Cressa

    NOOOO WAYY. is that the holy grail I see?
  20. Cressa
    Can you post a pic of the filter that you need?
  21. Cressa
    All I can think is that we have alternatives and that's a good thing. Flow/pressure, bring it on. An increase in pressure will hopefully give an increase in flow and that's a good thing for the Corrado version. Good luck people. I changed mine and never had a warm start issue since thankfully

    Bargain for Bosch, good find 👍
  23. Cressa
    Gutted for you that this is being such a pain. Mine did come in a Lucas box if I remember correctly and the seller did confirm it being 4 bar. Totally understand you deciding on the Vemo.
  24. Cressa
    It looks the part, but I cant ge 100% sure. Trying to look back at posts on the forum is a bloody nightmare and isn't helping. Can they confirm if it is a 4 bar pump? If so, go for it and good luck
  25. Cressa
    Have you got this out and about yet? I have been enjoying mine with no running issues, but now hear a bump at the rear off side. May just be the junk in the boot or toolkit unsecured. The old exhaust or suspension... I just need some time to get underneath her. 🫣
