On the diagram 16 it relates also to Automatic but has a different part number must have four branches and manual has three branches .

I wonder if the electric seats still move , got to be the best looking seats for the Rado. Does anyone know what option this was as you have the Reacaro cloth seats or what seat options were available ?? They are oringinal from factory ? interesting thread. http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?38393-Electric-recaro-trim-options These may well be the same seats in the car. Think they were only suppield on left hookers. http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?82350-Genuine-Corrado-Electric-Half-Leather-Recaros-Price-Reduced https://petrolicious.com/articles/a-teenage-dream-realized-restored-1991-volkswagen-corrado-now-boasts-vr6-power

No 16 on the diagram Fen. Coolant pump/Thermo stat. It is on the right lower side of the engine bay. What I don't understand is on the diagram there looks like there is four branches coming off it but the part only has three.:scratch: Maybe the four branch is the automatic version. http://www.oemepc.com/vw/part_single/catalog/vw/markt/RDW/modell/COR/year/1995/drive_standart/76/hg_ug/121/subcategory/21050/part_id/0/lang/e

Ahh the spaghetti coolant pipe, great glad your making that I don't have a spare unforunatley but mine is looking very tatty and feels perished .

Not necessarily several things faulty but you might have to change several parts to iliminate the fault or even one could cure it, just depends how lucky you are. Start off with the cheapest.

It's worth travelling or shipping with that interior you can see the owner really looked after this car. The ABS light could just be a sensor. It's in Northen Ireland so part of the UK so not to much hasstle in my opinion. See if you get the op to get it serviced and running and MOT , or hire a trailer and get the ferry. This car is woth spending money on , good mileage, colour and looks unlmolested I would go for this if I was on the hunt for one as long as it was accident free,Looks like it might of had the front callipers upgraded.

The limited edition interior,mileage, body colour will sell this car for you mate, best of luck with sale I didn't even know recaro did the seats in cloth and leather fantastic.

Good luck with this I'm sure youll get there ! Pictures work great you sussed it !

Handy company for hard to find obselete seals based in the USA. Is an option. http://vintagerubber.com/volkswagen/corrado/

OK thanks Jared.

Ok I think the problem is you can only load a certain size memory picture, if you send a picture to your tablet by email with your phone and it will give you a choice of size well it does on a iphone, choose small or medium. I take a picture with my iphone then email as a small picture to my laptop and save the picture on my laptop. Then on the message reply on Corrado net I click the photo button third from the right with tree, then the pop up I choose file(picture), once loaded and shown in pop up I press upload files. The key is must be a small picture. If you know how to take a picture on a small memory then you cn use your phone to upload on the full site version and not have to bother with that email nonsense.

Ok thanks , it might be cheaper to buy a 20k one if they have been sitting by the time you hava got them right.

Hve you got a laptop or a pc mate ?

Jared have you still got the contact of the S4 for 11k ? Cheers.

That's the only reason this user joined the forum.

Your wife will put a contract on me if im not carefull as been a bad influence ha ! Well best of luck with whatever you decide.

No worries mate glad I can be of a help . Are you considering the front subframe as well ? Here is a picture so you can see what I did and make a decision. Maybe forward it to Vince and say ditto. Front subfram your basically looking at four bushes https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-GOLF-MK2-CORRADO-FRONT-CROSS-MEMBER-MOUNT-BUSHES-x-4-191199233-A1223/192233123396?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 No point doing the wishbones you can get a pair new for £50 febi . Anti roll bar bushes and droplinks, track rods. Three engine,transmission mounts, also consider your strut mounts if you didnt do them when you did your supension. [ATTACH=CONFIG]96638[/ATTACH]

No problem mate I just had a leak in my R129 in the rear footwell and the mechanic stripped out the whole back seats and boot, turns out it was the rear drains were blocked cost me a few hundred in labour for him to rod out a drain oh the joys, was disappointed as a Merc specialist he did not know this before stripping it all out as I gave him photos and pinpoint instructions but did not read them hey ho :bonk:

I sourced them mate they dont really have time to get them as a lot of them are obselete or need to do a bit of investigation work , that's why I reccomend on purchasing them before hand so you dont get any cable straps . All can be sourced from ebay apart from x2 1H0609734F which your local dealer will be a able to supply. I really recommend when working on any part of the car to go on to oempec and analise the diagram and conclude what parts are worth sourcing in that area , a mechanic has not the time to do that will just change out the faulty part and make do with snapped clips . I supplied all my parts for Vince, he did'nt seem to mind.

When you do the rear beam the two bushes will make a huge difference , also need to source a few clips that attach the hand brake cables and brake cables. Rear beam refurbishment. This will save you some time. Recommend getting the rear beam powder coated estimate £50 -£70.00 x2 1H0609734F handbrake cable clips last letter is updated from original part number get from VW £1.60 x2 191609639B handbrke clips £4 for the pair x6 811611797 brake cable clips cheap x2 191609657 spacers cheap x2 Rear subframe bushes febi and bolts Febi Rear Axle Bush Prokit Repair Set Beam 1220 x2 holding bracket 1H0611715 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Febi-Rear-Axle-Bush-Prokit-Repair-Set-Beam-1220-GENUINE-5-YEAR-WARRANTY/173426827227?epid=1112937175&hash=item28610b5fdb:g:b7EAAOSw7U9bVhrW My handbrake was not working that well as somone had used cable ties previously the cable was jamming so really do need to use these parts. Should look something like this, there is a minus metal clip missing and the bushes. [ATTACH=CONFIG]96635[/ATTACH]

Mine is the the one on the furthest ramp behind the first Rado when he pulls the car in , you can see the large aluminum aftermarker radiator the last owner fitted. Can't wait to get her back next week, Vince is going to keep it for a couple of days and drive her home as there has been loads of work done to her, also check what the new eibach and B4 Bilstein set up is like with all new,engine & shock mounts, f/r subframe bushes, track ends every bush in the car changed. Should drive like it left the factory but a little firmer. Will post some pics once complete. It's ashame he didn't spend some time showing the Corrados missed opputunity.

Thanks for the link I'll have a butcher at that.

I believe this is what you might be sourcing nice when it's under a fiver . https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CORRADO-Heater-Blower-Intake-Gasket-191819166-/182881641078

Not to cause uneccesary worry , I'm sure there was a member selling a great Corrado that was damaged through an electrical fire that two members off here purchased. I think he mentioned that he thought it was a leak in that seal that caused elctricity to arch and cause a fire on the blower motor. Might be completley wrong but I now carry a fire extinguisher in the glove box and a spanner to disconnect the battery if such an occurence happened. Also with any leaks the first port of call is to check none of the cars drains are blocked , there are some in the sunroof, one on either bottom side of the door towards the engine, not sure where the rest are but I'm sure the other members we be able to help out.

Love them OZ wheels . Were the OZ wheels stock on the S model , what else came with the S model , also what is the most reliable model/engine block for the S4 ? TVR have gone up alot the last 2 years as well I have noticed . The none turbo S4 that puts puts 160 BHP? what is the 0 - 60 on that. Cheers.
