red corrado16v

I have T1-Rs on my Corrado in 195-45-16s all round, i've got to say that there excellent and provide bags of feedback, excellent wet weather grip and are wearing very well, will defo fit again in the future. Good price as well. £260 including VAT, fitting and nitrogen inflation. From Westgate Tyres, Morcambe.

Now im'e old and getting lazy i would like to fit an aftermarket remote central locking kit with a blipper, my car allready has c/l. Can anyone recomend a kit?, or has any one fitted one?. Obviously needs to be secure, my car has no security system fitted and would prefer to leave it that way so an alarm system is out of the question.

Had a look the outher day and found some of my relays and fuses were a little loose, probably unrelated but it has'nt done it for a while now.Worth a try!

2nd car but used every day as work/family/diy transport, love it to bits but is looking unloved at the moment.............hate this time of year.......dirty roads.......cow shit on country lanes.......hedges being cut........immpossible to keep car clean. Wifes got a Renault Megane 1.5td as the family hack.....60mpg and only £50 a year tax...........to cheap to get rid of!!!!!!!

Wayne 33. Yellow 1980 mk1 1.1 cl, my first car and first VW. Various Vauxhall Nova's 1.2, 1.3sr x2,Gte. Peugout 205 1.6 Gti. 1990 mkII GTI big bumper, sold to buy house. Fiat Uno (used as builders skip) Ford Sierra estate(used as builders skip) Citreon zx diesel Peugout 405 estate (used as builders skip) Fiat bravo in lime green Vauxhall senator 3l Auto(v quick,scary mpg). MkIII Gti Renault Laguna Same MkII Gti that i used to own plus one for spares. Renault Megane 1.5 Diesel Corrado 1.8 16v. Maybe a Caterham or an Elise next.

looked at the wiring and all seems to be fine, are these vdo clocks prone to problems ?

Has anyone else had a problem like this?.My car is a 1990 (G) Corrado 1.8 16valve. My oil pressure warning system keeps going off for a few fractions of a second with the buzzer blipping at the same time. Seems to do it when the car is warming up more so than when its at full temperature. Every now and then warning alarm wont go off until the engine has been switched off. It started doing it around 3 months ago so i changed both oil pressure switches (0.3 and 8 bar) fully flushed the engine with a quality engine flush, changed oil for a non synthetic oil and replaced the oil filter. I also had the oil pressure checked and was told it was fine. I thought this would cure it but it returned a few weeks later. It has been suggested to me that the VDO clocks can develop a fault with the curcuit boards that control the oil pressure system. Has anybody else seen this before?. I have also noticed that the top half of the MFA screen keeps going dimmer than the bottom half, could it be conected?. Any help would be gratefully recieved.

Will have to keep an eye on this one !I live no where near you guys, but my car has exactly the same spoting on the bonnet as yours. I purchased my car from Wolverhampton, and this spotting appeared a few weeks later, spend a lot of time and money trying to get rid of it (not had it painted....yet!).Vanishes after a good polish using autoglym silicone resin polish and then extra gloss protection, but will allways reappear after a week or so. Mate of mine suggested a Farecla trade only cutting compound...but i am having some difficulty finding some. Going to see a paint specialist to try to find a remedy.

Sold my mkII to buy my Corrado and still miss it to this day :( It was a 90 big bumper in white,uprated suspension,roll cage,stripped out interior. Not particularly a good one but was loads of fun. Did a couple of track days in it....Fantastic.

If its got no tax and test then you are running the risk of being stopped :lcop:, any car being towed outher than on a trailer HAS to be t&t and insured,purely because it is in contact with the road. Try phoning a local garage and ask for a fixed price collection, there are also loads of people on ebay that offer a collection service, if they can collect a couple of vehicles from the same area at the same time it could work out cheaper. Try asking someone down the pub, theres allways someone(mate of a mate of a mate) with a landrover & trailer willing to earn a few bob.

Good advice...don't want to see any of these :lcop:. kind of hoping they will be that busy nicking outher people that they will ignore us......after all them old 911's ar'nt that fast...are they? :lol: We'll just be following the outher 99,999 people in stupidly fast cars down there and enjoying the ride. At least we'll be sitting on the right side of the car when we get to France as it's a left hand drive.

Cheers, do you have a number for them or do they have a web site i can visit.
