Dutch24V

Thanks mate. It is strange, as some prices are far more expensive here, and others less than the UK :? Dutch

cymru-corrado, thanks mate :) Dutch

cymru-corrado, Thanks mate, I will post the more expensive parts for comaprison if you don't mind? Tempest, The Netherlands is the new rip-off country in Europe!! Probably cheaper in Germny true, but I don't speak or understand any German :( The parts I'm interested in are: 24v (BDE) Charcoal Canister purge valve: 1j0 906 517 g 85,20 (Anyone got one second hand??) VR6 (ABV) thermostat housing+thermostaat +waterpipe+waterpipeseal: +/- 145.00 VR6 (ABV) Rear engine mount: 1h0 199 262 k 77,23 VR6 (ABV) Front engine mount 3a0199402 58,19 24v (BDE) Lambda's before CAT 2x 163.00 after CAT 2x 198,73 These prices are in Euro's btw. Dutch

...mine is in Dutch and doesn't have up-to-date prices. I've just had an email form my local stealer with the cost of some parts I need and I'd like to check them against UK prices if possible (considering a clutch over here is 407 euro compared to £150) ?? Dutch

Cheers mate. Dutch

Can anyone tell me what the OE plugs are for a BDF 24v VR6 ? Also what's the best oil to use? Dutch

Just managed to source a cracked 24v DP from VW - for free!! :shock: Mate just called to say they have a Seat Leon 2.8 24v v6 in at the moment with the above DP. Apparently it's quite common on the Leon 24v's due to too much heat build up. Anyhow, I can cut the cracked pipes off and re-use the flanges and flexy joints. Just need to get the pipes made up now, buy 3 engine mounts, 4 lamda's and that's the lot. Hoping to start the conversion next week :D Dutch

lol, sorry again all :lol:

err, sorry for all the confusion lads. I read the advert late after returning from the coffeeshop and mis-read what he said. I thought he said it was a dizzy one, which is why it would be confusing, instead I just confused myself :oops: :oops: :) Dutch

N is '95/6 isn't it? I can't remember anymore but if so it shouldn't be coil packed that's all. Dutch

He says it's from an N reg VR6 Corrado, but yet it's coil packed???? Sounds odd to me... Dutch

Correct me if I'm woroing but I presume you live with your parents? ...if not business must be doing well :)

geen problem :wink:

yep, they are all the same. Dutch

Mike Edwards, That is not like my 24v throttle!? Dutch

Kev, pretty sure it won't work mate looking at my manifold now. Your talking some major jiggery pokery :) Didn't mkIV golfs in the US come with the 12v engine with the TB on the right hand side just like their 24v big brothers? Dutch

Yep, Andy is going to try and source a 4Motion downpipe for me. He reckons it shouldn't be too much of a problem :) Dutch

Cheers Jay. Dutch

I'm going to order a new VR thermostat housing, but not sure if it will fit the 24v crack-pipe, or will I have to order a new 12v crack-pipe too?? I have checked ETKA and the part numbers for the 2 crack-pipes are different? Also, will the VR water pump fit the 24v block? Cheers, Dutch

Cheers mate. I can get a strainless mandrel (spelling?) bent downpipe made for +/- 200-250 Euro if I can supply the flanges :) Dutch

Don't suppose someone can PM me the phone number for Andy at PSI? Cheers, Dutch

As above :) ...I was going to suggest having a look at the measuring blocks for the speed sensor. Dutch

No doubt mate looking at the pics. :) Do you have VAG-COM and the diagnostic connector wired up? Dutch

Stan, not really related to your last problem, but I presume he fitted the mkIV relay panel? I have a full 24v engine loom and the mkIV relay panel here and the wiring/connectors for all 4 lambda's are there, along with all the necessary relays too? Dutch

I don't have that part on a '94 LHD VR? I feel left out now :( Dutch
