valeo are good major supplier to the trade and a very good price :) -
i had the same happen to me about 4 years ago with a brand new audi A4 , not my fault i had a lifting cable snap on the ramp i was using at the time , arm dropped to the saftey brake but it was enough for the car to come right off the ramp and land on its side , car was pritty fooked , fault was poorly maintained ramp at a main dealer so its not always the mechanics fault , ive seen accidents like this about 3 times in 21 years in the trade still makes you jump when it happens :multi:

works most of the time :) -
cool dude must be on the same wave length buddy sorry to steal your thunder though :D

its used for various reasons , mostly as a marker when a car has been in a decent shop and had major work the tec will mark up the component bolts when there tourqed up correctly so they know the bolts are tight , its also used to mark bolts to check if the works been done correctly ( if the paint is broken you know the parts have been apart ) some companys use it also as a tamper proof deterant so you can see if some ones been playing around , ive even seen the ministry of transport and trading standards use this stuff to check out garages to make sure works done correctly on car , but yours looks like some ones simply marked up the parts they have replaced , you can get it at some trade outlets or mostly people will use normal car paint , hope this answers your query :)

mate not meaning to sound negative but ive been repairing cars for 21 years and every month i think i dont need anymore tools and then the dealers bring out a new bit and i have to buy another tool :( so the list could be quite long mate , hope all goes well with the rebuild :D
-
but if you hadnt then we wouldnt have known not to try it , so really we should be saying thank you for the sacrifice of your throttle body in the quest for more power resulting in the the knowledge that it didnt work . Sorry mate im not taking the p**s , hope you sort it soon its the type of thing that i would try and it always goes wrong :D
-
well done mate ive just checked mine out for the same type of noise and it was the same thing , so you've saved me a bit of time looking , thanks buddy :D

lottysvdub replied to cromwell's topic in Engine Bay
ive already fitted a new one and it didnt seem to work :( so i simply bypassed the system , fan still kicks in if im not paying attention but i can also control the running temp of the car and dont have to worry if im sat in long traffic jams which we get a lot of around this time of year with holiday makers starting to move around :D -
Sub installed...........and room for the shopping!

lottysvdub replied to cromwell's topic in Engine Bay
you my friend get a little colder :lol: ive had problems , but not as bad as yours , my temp gauge rises to around 110 before the fans kicked in so now ive wired the fan to a remote switch so when im in traffic i can flick them on and let them run all day at 90 , hope you sort it soon as the problems you have had will be forgotten when you get it sorted and then start to enjoy the corrado experience to the max , remember corrado owners need deep pockets lol :D -
wow i want one :shock:
-
well how did the retest go then :Fade-color

2_Door_fun, :nurse: you can get a cream over the counter at any decent chemists for that LOL :D

Can anyone suggest where the oils coming from (See pics)
lottysvdub replied to mtc R32's topic in Engine Bay
funny very funny , i like the idea of rust protection , :D and i think its only a minor leak , considering i used to work on french cars ha ha , but honesty it does look nasty , pressure wash it good and then look for leaks when its clean mate :)
