  1. I know 2 lads with scoobies, both of them have had to replace there engines....think they make the cranks out of a form of slightly hardened chocolate
  2. My mate is buyin a 2.0 16v passat engine and puttin it in his mk2 Will the meterin head etc be the same as the corrado??? I would have thought so??? I'll have a word with my mate and im sure he'll let you have it for a reasonable price, dont want to see a rado scrapped over somethin as small as this
  3. Bet he's pi55ed off that he didnt get more money for it
  4. Sounds like somethin I will be lookin in to. I can see the downside bein that I'd want to sell the corrado and buy a rwd car
  5. Feel sorry for the owner, must be gutted
  6. Ive heard loads of good things about psi tunin on Parkhouse West in Newcastle
  7. This man is a genius. Been followin this for a year or two now, coz i read PPC (practical performance car). This is a top magazine and would recommend anyone to go out and get a copy

    Nm's

    I rarely use a torque ratchet, unless its somethin critical like a head etc. Judge it by the size of the pin, if its only a small bolt, dont go crazy on it
  9. I think you'll regret swappin the rado for the mk2. It shoudnt cost much to get valve stem seals done
  10. We did both of them at xmas. Will be due again shortly. We've had no problems when towin, think the close gears make towin easy imo
  11. Sorry to hear about that mate, bet your well gutted. Make sure you stick at it tho Think ive just pi55ed myself

    works van

    I only dream of my 230,000+ mile transit doin those sorts of speeds, lol. Im lucky to get 65 out of mine
  13. I love land rovers. My dads had them for years, his latest bein a proper weapon. Its got one of those BMW TD5 (2.5 litre, 5 cyl) and it goes like stink!! Also dead reliable (Will probably break now ive said that)
  14. Nice one mate. Theres nothin like those first few weeks of corrado ownership....until your wallet starts gettin light, lol
  15. I always use a genuine vw filter myself
  16. Mixture?? Mine did a similar thing when the mixture needed settin up
  17. Over fuelin would cause dirty plugs
  18. Ive had 2 corrado's, both originals and thought they were both good. I 'bent' the arms alittle so they would put more pressure on the screen and they work well
  19. Think you need to change your sig paul buckley, lol
  20. Think he means Charger overhaul?? For general engine work, I keep hearin good things about psi tunin in Stoke (Newcastle). He is one of the original blokes from awesome and is supposed to be brilliant
  21. There are some cheap G60's floatin about at the min. I cant recommend them enough (aslong as you get a good 'un)
  22. This is not a waste, but in my opinion, an option woth considerin. This consists of my usual friday night, lol :Fade-color
