    REAR BADGE

    are the steales the best place to get the corrado badge from?? mine broke yesterday along with all the little blue gromits(?) that hold it on. its a silver corrado badge, any idea of part number and cost?? might aswell get a new vr badge too!!
  2. i had the housing repalced a while back but i don't think they cahnged the stat!!! water seems fine temp but oil is hot as so just wondering if they are connected cos of the heat exchanger. looking into gettin an oil cooler. anyone no how much they cost??
  3. how hard to change thermostat in vr6. oil red hot and think could be linked to dogy stat. anytone talk me through the process?? :lol:
  4. when i push for my foglights to come on i get nothing and the switch doesn't light up. does this just mean the bulbs?? both front an rear fogs not working and switches not illuminating. gotta mot it tomorow too!
  5. 155 on the clock before he bottled it with more to come.
  6. just been claened. good job you can't see the stone chips!
  7. Bally, were you at mk cruise sunday night after spring festival??? was there in my vr and spied one just like your pic. looked tidy. was funny as all the boy racers raced off fast and furious style!
  8. i get 118 degees at bout a staedy 90- 100 mph. would like it to run cooler but i do think that the stat wasn't swapped when housing apparently was changed but as i said mechanic that swapped g box said the housing looked iffy but i haven't been able to check myself yet.
  9. when you s`ay strip the gearbox side of coil etc, will this mean resetting alarms etc?? is it quite easy??? thanks
  10. how easy is it to replace thermostat??? how to drain coolant etc? how do you get 'stat off?? would a mocal be neccessary? tahnks
  11. mate nice whip. looks well cool in the silver! looks straight as an arrow. wish mine was like that! :cry:
  12. had thermostat housing replace a while back by what i thought was a good garage but seems that they were a bit well shit. when having gearbox put back after diff blew, reliable mechanic said thermo housing looked on way out. could a dodgy thermostat/housing cause the heat exchanger used to help coool the oil to not function and the oil get too hot (114-118 degrees)?? how hard is it to cahnge the housing and thermostat?? what have i got to do?? thanks guys and nice to see a few rados at spring festival! :salute:
  13. do you have to have the clutch replaced as i have just puit a new one in after diff blew. my vr is on 105 k. blodduy money pit
  14. i hardly ever see any other rados around, just the usual saxo and jap crap! where do you boys all hang out then???

    seat

    my heated leather seat seems like it might be about to break. it rocks a little bit like it has worn from people pushing on the bolstster to get in an dout. is it easy to get them oiut and affect a repair? does anyone know of similar problems or weak areas??
  16. when is the next meet?? anyone palnning on going to gti spring festival at santa pod?? its at the end of april. i think i am going but with some boys from bucks. how come i haven't been spotted? blue vr with leather, lowered and atainless zorst always buzzin from bexhill to eb (work in shine water!)
  17. nope just a powerfow cat back. sounds nice and deep but not noisey at motorway speeds and pops and bangs asound cool on the overrun (if you like that sort of thing). it can be made louder/quieter whatever you like. and lifetime warranty
  18. right any one got any ideas of how much this might cost to get done professionally, or where to buy the kits from for the rado??
  19. so what exactly dos that do. work like a rad for the oil. if this is shagged will temps rise??
  20. so does the corrado have a cooler on already??? can this be replaced more easily??
  21. how easy is it to fit an oil cooler to a vr6?? my oil gets so hot (120 degrees) even though it is fresh and new filter put on. what size would i need as been checkin out mocal ones and they don't seem too expensive. basically how do u fit them and where??
