  1. i have this too, on passenger side rear, changed all suspension and had it apart so can't see it thats on mine. could it be to do with axle bushes?
  2. or the VW dealers £86.18 last time i got one
  3. is it living in the car somewhere? put something on top of it like a sheet of metal then cover that in strong glue :lol: he should be there to say hello in the morning :lol:
  4. i found the wiper motor is pretty vunerable to wet and stuff especially if you have a nice waxed bonnet and its been rained on, you lift bonnet and it dumps all the water straight onto the motor and its wires
  5. i looked into one, i know someone who can get me one at a decent price, but didn't seem like anyone really knew about them at the time so haven't bothered.
  6. is that is the bigger bottles and not the small ones? looks like the big ones in the pic, but can't see a volume stated anywhere £2.50 a bottle that is quite good found a deal here too http://www.4wheelplay.co.uk/autoglym-su ... 2ed8c61602
  7. corrado is 1st car i've had with ABS and now its icy i'm not sure how well it works when i've had to slam on the brakes on a dry road i'm sure i've felt what i assumed was abs kicking in. felt juddery and pedal went loose/felt weird but just now on the ice, had to brake for a turning, was braking in a straight line and it just locked up and i had to deal with it myself. Couldn't feel any sign of ABS at all? should it be good in the ice? whats your cars like?
  8. is it a VR6? i'll be going for lunch in a min so could check also where is the ISV :lol:
  9. good news, i hope to pay a visit in the new year
  10. what i meant is its more skyline than focus, i think the only part that is focus is a fibreglass shell
  11. can't remeber the story behind it, got started ages ago and the chap died or something :(
  12. looked on ebay yesterday and some chap is selling a whole load of corrado models, loads of em :!
  13. needs sound on! http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?doc ... 4752212560 a little crazy maybe? :lol:
  14. i'm no expert but i would of thought if the pump isn't working properly the water might not be getting around the engine fully. i don't know where the water warning light on dash has its sensor mounted but might help to know that

    Carbon Roof

    can you weld carbon fibre to car metal, (what ever it is) corrado is titanium isn't it? :lol:
  16. depends what you class as good imo, i'm not a believer of aftermarket filters, well most of them anyway. to me a performance "filter" would be one that filtered really really well, not one that is freeflowing. i fitted a K&N panel filter to mine, but took it back off again after looking at the depth of filter material and comparing it under lights to the standard paper one, i just doubted it too much, read loads about dodgy MAF's etc and mine has run fine for 155,000miles with a paper filter, so didn't see the point and didn't want to risk ruining anything. i'll probably get proved wrong :lol:
  17. no focus at all really, i think its a fibreglass shell and the whole thing is space framed
  18. " two wet people got into the car....one on each side and set about me" do you drive a mcclaren F1? :!
  19. nice, i think i can do far better one now :D got my drawing pens out lastnight, not seen them since school days, they all buggered up where the ink has dried up. now they are broken because i tried to fix them :( looked at buying replacements and they about £23 each :! seems alot for a pen, but i need two new ones now :lol: i blame the corrado for this :)
  20. yes, get down low and look up into the speaker surround, its at about 1pm if it were a clock :)
  21. No 'groans' here, that's a good gag. I wonder if the car belongs to the golfer in the background. You know how little taste golfers have. i posted a similar joke and i think it got deleted for some reason? didn't say anything as i'm nice me :lol:
  22. mines flippin gippo :lol: i will start again
  23. :! like this? i may as well just copy that :lol:
