Did someone say they selling 263's?

I've bought single hoses from merlin motorsport before :)

Hi mate. 3.50 posted ok?

Any update mate?

I remember when I had my compomotive mo's on my mk2 VR6, never known 15" wheels fit over my 312's. Was chuffed! Always liked 16's.. Good compromise on looks and handling...

I'd love a set of these in 16" :)

Think i'm decided... the Brock B2's are going up for sale!

I had ABS comms issues like you've mentioned here and it was actually VCDS causing the problem not the ECU... Tried using Older ver of vag com and it was fine...

added... cant believe there's no other Corrado for miles where I am in Stoke!

Hey. Sorry to drop in your thread but I'm also after one of these if more than one person comes up with one :)

id be interested.

It's been a while since I've put an update on here, been a little busy with work and all that sort of stuff.

Sunday, I got the rear brake lines on, bled up the system, and troubleshooted the ABS problems I've been having as the light does'nt come on at all, and I was getting comms issues using VCDS....

I replaced the ABS ECU, obtained a new ABS Lamp, still had the same issues, It seems that the replacement ABS lamp also had a blown bulb, and it would appear VCDS has a software bug, as older version of VAG-COM talk to the ECU just fine!

I tested the ABS by attaching a side repeater bulb to the terminals, and it came on and off as expected.

Continued to set the coilover ride height, and spray the coilovers with chain wax to protect them, sorted a blow on the exhaust joints but the centre silencer has developed a hole due to rust, so will need to replace them....

Here's a quick photo of trying to get the car up my drive, its quite steep, so had to make sure ride height was set appropriately :)

I'm now toying with the idea of selling my Brock B2's and looking out for some compomotive mo's again! I really like those, and would do anything to get my old set back!

Last night I soldered in my my ABS bulbs last night, so now have (seemingly) working ABS... that was my biggest issue, preventing me from MOT'ing the car.

I was that impressed that it's now working, I was sad enough to take a video :)

stuff left to do:

Fit side repeater case - Need to order

Fit front drivers brake hose clip

secure fog light cases to bumper

fit new heater bowden cable

finish fitting heater controls

put remaining dash trims back in

tracking / camber etc...

MOT

Fit OBD2 conversion

fit uprated headlight loom

fit a new radiator as have a small leak on mine...

Fit recon gearbox with g60 final drive.

Now have working ABS!

Replaced the bulbs on 2 abs lights

Fitted 2 new rear brake lines.

Put a hole in front silencer - Doh!

Does anyone know where I can get a replacement bulb from?

Cheers. Pete

Cheers pal! Soldered up new bulbs into the units, both work, Light comes on then goes out, bring on my MOT.

I now a spare working module, and 8 bulbs if anyone is in need...

Pete

No problem mate

any luck buddy?

yes i'll take those thanks :) Its always a chore going to my local VW and I just want to get the car MOT'ed :) I only really need the drivers side to be honest as my passengers is fine, but for 8 quid i'l take em :)

Thanks for confirming Jon...

Ok, I'll order 10 as thats now the min order, will replace the bulb in my spare ABS light module and tell that on to cover my costs, will also have 8 spare bulbs should anyone else require any.

Cheers

Pete

on the VR6 you can bridge 2 of the pins on the yellow sensor... A and C If i recall, or B and D, and it will sent a signal to the guage to check if it works...

I'd assume there was a similar test for the G60...

Sounds Like you need to delete the immobiliser from the ECU, stealth racing will do it...

Sussed it...

I've actually been unlucky, it just ended up being a blown bulb in the ABS light unit, unfortunately I did buy another one, but that had a blown bulb too! I'm going to try and find a new bulb and solder it onto the PCB...

Also the comms issue appears to be VCDS, I tried vag-com 709.x and that was fine... It just freaks out when using VCDS.

Cheers mate. is this new or 2nd hand mate?

Hi buddy - is it this one ?

Hiya, while working on my corrado at the weekend, some corrosion on the exhaust has blown a hole in the front silencer... this is the tubular part that attaches after the CAT to the rest of the exhaust system...

does anyone know the cheapest place to buy one of these?

Cheers!

Pete

Don't suppose you still have this bulb? :)
