    same here, i have aircon in mine, got in car lastnight, was sorching hot (full black leather interior) flicked on aircon and within a few minutes it was lovely, yet other times i've flicked it on and i don't seem to get any cool air? seems to work best when engine is cold

    Temp Issue

    Jim Bowen replied to ardandy's topic in Engine Bay

    oil temp or water temp? :lol: i'm quite interested myself, as mine acts weirdly and random at times, especially with the aircon on??

    Temp Issue

    Jim Bowen replied to ardandy's topic in Engine Bay

    did you try turning your heating on full to get rid of the heat? i'd let it cool off and then experiment to see if it comes on at all now

    i've seen that on a few forums now :x

    cheers, the paint does have some swirling imo, maybe i'm just too fussy, hard to see until you there in person. :lol: i use the autoglym stuff on tyres, its a little spray bottle, it works well but the bottle runs out quickly, think the tyres were still abit wet with it in the pics

    just a few more pics, been treating the leather today and gave the outside a quick wash Seats, no wear on bolsters 8) car, washed, pics are quite dark and really bright :lol: was a sunny day tried to take a pic to show condition of paint (swirls etc), not sure if i've taken picture correctly

    i had dents in my roof once, they kept appearing, ended up with loads, like 20 odd, all about 1 inch circles i never found out what caused them, i thought maybe a cat jumping off my garage? had them fixed and its never happened since. bizarre

    hello, welcome, get some pics of it up 8) i'm not irish, but i like guiness

    i'll check the box for the size, am sure they are 10cm i may as well just try em, there is currentely "infinity" speakers in there, not sure which is best, but i don't like the white cones very much
  14. Jim Bowen
    am i right in thinking the front speakers in a corrado are: 2 in the doors and 3 tweeters in the dash? i just realised i have these in my garage, was going to sell them but if they will go in the car i'll use them

    i'm near the airport, saffron walden, gt dunmow area? only yesterday i had to part with £850 after a few more bits needing fixing :( i coulda had some nice rims for that :lol:
  16. Jim Bowen
    agree, they match the front lights, fogs and indicators then smoked just looks cheap and more at home on a corsa, saxo or fiesta

    I have found that the plastic cover on the actual lever part of handbrake has come lose and won't go back on properly, feels really cheapy. is there any alternatives to it? can you fit a leather gaitor? pics please would be appreciated

    hi mate, welcome to the forum, i too have had that grin for the last 6months :) speedlines are one of the best rims for the corrado i think, sounds good so far
  19. Jim Bowen
    i haven't been able to mod mine much yet as it keeps breaking, yours is already looking fab
  20. Jim Bowen
    your way cooler than me imo :lol:

    very tidy mate, looks so good considering the age/mileage i've not been brave enough to try my sunroof yet, don't want it getting stuck :lol:
  22. Jim Bowen
    i was going to say, probably sent in by some chaps outside :lol:
  23. Jim Bowen
    i've always been one, not to buy cheap stuff, i'd rather a £300 of shocks and springs, than a £300 set of coilovers. i paid £400 for shock n springs on a corsa :lol: i thought decent setups on a corrado would start around £700?
  24. Jim Bowen
    mine sits like a 4x4 so slightly less worried now :lol:
  25. Jim Bowen
    must be a valver model :lol: VR's seem quicker
