  1. This is what VW Heritage offer JP Group pump + housing but sold out and more expensive then the VDO. https://www.vwheritage.com/1h0919651q-fuel-pump-with-housing-for-g60-and-vr6-vw-spare I believe this is the same pump but I would still check it's 4 bar and do a bit of research. You would have to source the sender to but a phone call to JP Group should sort that out , reckon it will be around £110 all in . Do make sure that it is 4 bar , my Bosch was advertised as 4 bar but I called up Bosch and they declared no its a 3 bar we recommend you only use a 4 bar pump. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-JP-GROUP-Fuel-Feed-Unit-1115202700-Top-Quality/192891170149?epid=1180809074&hash=item2ce935ad65:g:DS8AAOSwyHRaubr4&frcectupt=true The thing is though is your a 3 bar pump if its a Peirburg so maybe you should not get a 4 bar . Some bargains here for the 4 cylinder Corrados Fuel pumps. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pierburg-Fuel-Pump-721088-VW-Corrado-Jetta-Golf-Mercedes-C32-AMG-SL55-AMG/254176099712?hash=item3b2e137d80:g:VEkAAOSw7D9cl9-m&frcectupt=true
  2. I went for the VDO pump as it was 4 bar and the Bosch was only 3 bar, it only cost me £135.00 plus delivery , they must of made a price error and they honoured it :dance: I went for pump and sender just because I don't mind changing any part that is over 20 years old and can cross it off the part could easily fail list. Here is the cheapest I could find today. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VDO-Fuel-Pump-4bar-Electric-For-VOLKSWAGEN-CORRADO-E22-041-060Z/312552428227?epid=1416938808&hash=item48c59392c3:g:Jk0AAOSwwJJcoDwx

    Good day

    Good looking car Harrier , I think our cars must of been some of the last Corrados made coming off the line, mine was registered in Febuary 96 I believe and was a Northmahpton VW dealers car. Is your paint Magic Black same as mine, do you have your paint code at hand ? Cheers.
  4. This is the size of the stock speedlines if this helps. 6.5 x 15 and 15lbs in weight, ET 43. 5 x 100 for late models, early models have four lugs. I actually think these are the best stock alloys made for the Rado but have 4 lugs and mine have 5. https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/222855402047?chn=ps Not sure they even do original BBS LM in 5 x 100 just nasty after market ones. Werent they primarily for a BMW which were 5 x 112. Oh hold on these are very nice ! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Original-BBS-LM-066-LeMans-7x17-5x100-BBS-OZ-VW-Golf-Polo-Audi-A3-Subaru/302999144016?hash=item468c280650:g:R6UAAOSwsqxcFnr-

    Good day

    Well done another Rado saved, a lot of kids have wrecked these cars, look at the MK2 golfs they have shot up in price due to limited numbers, immature decisions made by their owners literally hacking them to pieces and slamming them that low the chassis literally cracks.
  6. I think 16 is the sweet spot and the golf anniversary BBS split rims tick all the boxes for me personally.
  7. Hum this is a nice motor . https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/E30-BMW-1990/223502122601
  8. I would really like a double garage but love my house and only has a single which in need for storage space for my other hobbies. If I ever move again I wouldn't mind a plot of land that you could build one of these bad boys , if you had good access to the rear or side of the property you could try and build a triple. Nice bimmer by the way. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ENGLISH-GREEN-OAK-TIMBER-FRAME-GARAGE-CARPORT-TWO-BAY-OUTBUILDING-CARTLODGE/183485831496?hash=item2ab89b9948:g:5kcAAMXQoYJSLZY7&frcectupt=true
  9. Hi Moo, Could ask this ebay seller. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/vw-golf-mk1-mk2-mk3-uprated-headlight-loom-harness-corrado-gti-Scirocco-Vento/292804895796?hash=item442c882434:g:a7gAAOSwaNBUeNlq&frcectupt=true Also I used these guys for some hinges from France. http://www.classic-store.com/product_info.php?products_id=79602 I also believe a member was making them off here at some point might even be the ebay seller.
  10. They do look class on a Rado Sean agreed.
  11. Agree with the above 17 are to large, they do look good the LM though. I went for set of these BBS RS771 but managed to snag a set for £300 fully refurbished. Also got the speedlines refurbished quilted up in the garage as I think they look mint to on a Rado. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-VW-BBS-RS771-RS-771-Golf-Anniversary-Mk3-Mk4-Alloy-Wheels-5-Stud-16-6-5J-ET42/303132556366?hash=item46941bbc4e:g:S1oAAOSw3v5YoQnQ&frcectupt=true
  12. Do like an E30 318IS with the check interior ! Had a NOVA SR 1.3 in the late 80s that was a fun car and I think they sell for a pretty penny now alongside the Renault GT 5 Turbo. Vauxhall made some pretty iconic cars back then. I'm amazed they are still manufacturing to be honest with the likes of Saab going bump.
  13. Unfortunately if vag don't reveal anything it's just one of those have to go through the part list, however I can honestly say after going through similar car not running right and sorting it, I drove to Derbyshire today and my VR was growling down the carriageway and all the BMW 2.0 crew got an arse slapping, Im going to put a ASBO on my RADO if this carries on .
  14. Finally got a few things together for my car that I have been after for a while. I know AMOS gets a lot of bad hype on here and deserving so. However I called him today and said I was popping down. So he has 5 or six cars just sitting there and a upstairs full of parts, I managed to get the following. Rear tailgate seal which is now obsolete was £100 and something new Rear push rod buffer which is now obsolete £30 something on ebay for a small plastic grommet !!!!! Rear tailgate upper trim panel obsolete but was a £100 and something. All for £40 notes so my advice is do use him but you need to call to find out his there which he usually is and just pop down there and get stuck in. Also an update on other things going on. My MFA last digit is not displaying correctly and I was going to hang on for god knows how long in till a second hand one that may only last a few months as they are all going to fail at some stage. Heard of people sending them off to get them fixed but with no joy and a lot of aggro. So to my amazement VW classics still do the whole board with MFA and everything, it cost £188 + Vat but think how many things can go wrong on that board with warning lights etc . Only a few years back or so they were retailing in £580 range so it's less then half price so I took the hit and got a new one, just wondering if it will effect my mileage reading anyone ? Number 3 on the diagram part number 535919042AH , there are different variations this is for a Corrado VR6 from chassis F 50-P-000 001 http://www.oemepc.com/vw/part_single/catalog/vw/markt/RDW/modell/COR/year/1995/drive_standart/76/hg_ug/919/subcategory/211020/part_id/3695483/lang/e Also received my VDO 4 bar fuel pump from these guys within a week from Germany, its nearly £70 cheaper then anywhere else I could find. https://www.buycarparts.co.uk/vdo/1737314?&gadw=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIlv-W2tj14QIV7bvtCh2UVwVpEAAYASAAEgJLO_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
  15. This is so true people are so obsessed with mileage in this country, modern classics are very usable so one should expect high mileage and purchase a car on history, maintenance, chassis and body condition. Some of the worst cars to buy are garage queens but I suppose if you spend the money on them you should get it back but you have to pay a high premium in the first instance.
  16. Still you can eliminate both coil packs are working correctly as this does sure sound like a coil pack misbehaving. I would just work your way through the parts mentioned as it will do your car good anyhow.
  17. You know for sure its not your coil pack as that would be my number 1 prime suspect.
  18. If the battery is displaying the correct output I would be amazed if it was the battery, wouldn't do no harm to clean the contacts though with a wire brush if they are looking grubby. Have you changed the coil pack at all , I had the problem you had and it was the coil pack, Vince at stealth said the coil pack was that bad that it even enabled for two cylinders to be working intermittently. If you have a cheap one on well worth swopping out for a Beru coil pack. If you have misfueling this should show up as a fault code on VAG as mixture adaption or lambada code code because it cant work in its tolerance. Recommend a Vgate off ebay if you don't have one pretty cheap £30 something. Bad fuelling could also be injectors choked and need to be refurbished, also fuel pump on its way out as you mentioned. My first port of call would be sparks and leads if not changed. Coil Pack Fuel pump Injectors refurbished - If going to do this let me find out who he uses because he mentioned to me other Owners of Rados had them done elsewhere and caused big problems as the refurbisher didn't do them correctly and they did some sort of damage to the cars . Also worth checking that you have no air leaks in the intake and exhaust system.
  19. Hi Mick, Do you have for sale. The rear tailgate has a buffer plate in the lower trim panel, to remove pop it out from behind the trim if you try to lever it out it may snap , its ok if its grey think they all are. Picture attached. Thanks [ATTACH=CONFIG]96890[/ATTACH]
  20. Just noticed your parcel shelf is grey are the trims grey or black in your car as I need the trim in black. Thanks
