    oil a bit toasty

    High oil temp= check your thermostat housing+coolant pipework, normal motorway driving u ncan reach temps of up to 115 but not 140, who's gonna be driving for a length of time at 130mph!!! we all want 2 but come on!! also if your VR is running ok then it could be a faulty temp sensor ,imho. anyother feedback and i'll let you know. Jim .
  3. oh i just thought of something it's not as far back as the sump,just infront of it.
  4. as i look under the car it's dripping right at the middle . i don't ahve a clue what the hose are but as you look under the car 2 of the same size hoses meet , behind that is a thinner hose thats pretty flexy ,it's dripping onto that,i'd say the hose is about afootand a half in from the middle of the car. thanks for the reply.

    vr6

    Hi Guys the force needs you , i'm going to look at a Rado vr6 tomorrow i need to know what main things to check for, what is the main things i need to look at, how is it i check for a clocked Rado? you are my only hope o b one, cheers, Jim.
  13. ok, i'm looking for my 'rado vr6' but when i started searching i never thought about an automtic. I had an auto Land Cruiser Amazon but it was a 4.2 TD with 205 bhp under it and it was a cruising Jeep,magic machine but i missed the left hand magic,it also made you very lazy. i was wanting to know the opinion of both... the truth might hurt but it's better out than in.. cheers, Jim .
  14. Hi,i joined the forum about a week ago,i wasn't sure what kinda corrado i wanted but with being over that 30 year mark insurance isn't really a problem so i've opted for a vr6,the only problem is that most cars that r for sale are well down in England some in Wales how do we get round this without loads of traveling? what kinda milage and year should i be looking for with 3.5k to spend? thanks for reading, Jim.
