Depends what model corrado you have got - vr6 or 4 pot? and it depends on how low you want to go on the coilys? yes the 205 will stretch over the 9. I have 195/45/16 on the 7.5s on the front of my vr and 205/40/16 on the rear 9s on the back of mine. If you have a 4 pot, you can get 9s on the front, depending what drop you have got. If you have a vr, you can get 9s on the front but it is a hell of alot of work. I skimmed the rear disks which have the 9s on by 3mm and had the rear arches pulled an inch either side and skimmed the caliper carriers on the 7.5s on the front to get rid of having to use a spacer to get the wheels over the calipers.

Moonroofs from the passat estates fit the best. circa 93/94. You wont need any extra parts, it is a straight swap. My fella and I have got it down to 45mins from taking the old one out and putting the moonroof in.

Maybe one of the springs has broken. Have you taken the seat out and had a look to see if anything obvious has broken?

well theres been two rado tensioner bolts on there and then the mk4 24v one which is on there now so who knows lol. How lucky am I?! I went to three or four places yesterday regarding the o ring. One guy directed me to a place on scabby island which shut at 12 so I had half hour to find it lol. I got there and they had 3 o rings in the right size so I got them all. Finding a motor factors open on a sunday with the right size o rings has to be fecking lucky!!!!

Right, Toad and Peanut have just spent today and yesterday in the wind and rain replacing parts on my corrado, some replaced again since the last effort so they were new and we could rule them out for being the problem. This time the following were replaced: - Upper and lower chains Lower tensioner Tensioner bolt and pad were replaced with mk4 24v ones Clutch lever arm Lower chain cover oil seal They just fired Zed up and guess what, no rattling!!!! :D We are thinking it was either the tensioner bolt, the lower tensioner or the upper chain that was causing the problem. Just want to say a big thank you to Toad and Peanut for working their arses off this weekend. Appreciate it greatly. I am really pleased this problem has finally been solved. Thanks again guys

Has anyone used the mk4 24v tensioner pad and tensioner bolt on their vr6? I am trying to get the correct part numbers for them so I can order them today or monday. thanks

Im not sure if you know about it but here is site that may be of some use to you... http://www.audifans.net and here's for the s2's.... http://www.s2forum.com

Due to the no. plate of course. We cant actually be held responsible for that one as it was someone who posted on our thread who thought of it. Mine is called Zed, due to the Z-supercharger.
-
We did have a look and we couldnt see any damage to the cam lobes or tappets. We did take oil pressure readings but dont have them to hand. I recall being quite close to being in spec with the Bentley manual.
-
right, it's now got a new tensioner bolt and pad. Fired it up and the noise is still there. Going to now change the two chains and bottom tensioner (engine out again!). Any other suggestions? I can't think of anything else to change.
-
welcome to the forum. What corrado have you got?
-
Uh Oh :( - No mention of the plate being sold with the car though.. no mention of it not being sold with the car either :?
