I've not used them, but try Rimstock in West Brom': http://www.rimstock.co.uk/content/restoration They produced the wheels for Prodrive for the Impreza RB320 (there are good reports on RB320OC). http://www.rb320ownersclub.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=3793&p=106550

Wiggled with fuse board, now no wipers, fan, sunroof?
Philly-R6 replied to Thursdave's topic in ICE 'n' Secure
Are you good with wiring diagrams? http://www.corrado.com.pl/elektryka/corrado92.pdf There can only be a problem with: A. the wiper motor (unlikeky) - harness goes from fusebox connector 'S' to wiper motor B. wiper stalk/switch (possible) - harness goes from fusebox connector 'J' to wiper switch on steering column C. the fuse or relay (both checked) Challenge yourself and trace the wiring through... -
A bit of a late reply, but try Glenn Harrop in Stretford: http://www.glennharropmotors.co.uk/. Used him for years and he knows his stuff!

Ahh, I can't help you: I have the later version ( 357 919 506 ), which has a 10-pin connector on the right (where yours' has an 8-pin connector). Hopefully, someone local to you can assist further...

Hi Rado87, I didn't realise these were ongoing problems for you. I cant see these sensors blowing fuses (unless they fail and short to earth), so I would be cautious about spending money on sensors without understanding the problem. I can understand a faulty coolant temperature sensor making your hot starts difficult... I am drawn to the Fan Controller to investigate first - it is common to the two fuses you mention, and the problem is intermittent (when you are driving). Does it look in good nick? Does it look water tight?? I have a known good 10-pin version, do you want to loan it and rule your Fan Controller in or out? Phil

Check relay position 8 is snugly seated in the fusebox - that is the controller for the intermittent wipe: 19 for standard relay, 99 for variable intermittent module, see http://www.a2resource.com/electrical/CE2.html... -
Hi, I believe fuse 13 is for the horns only (see fuse listings at the bottom of this page http://www.a2resource.com/electrical/CE2.html). Fuse 19 does supply the power to the temperature sensor ( F18 ) on the radiator. Have you followed the notes in the Definitive Cooling Guide - in particular the "Fans/pump after-run fault-checking" section?

Might be worth updating the wiki!? http://wiki.the-corrado.net/front_seat_removal.html

I also have an un-covered VSR manifold. I ultimately got the kit from G60MAT (http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?92165-Genuine-VWMS-VSR-VR6-VW-Motorsport-Manifold-Setup-SOLD) - his original advert suggested he could "work with the purchaser to produce a new badge". Admittedly, we would still need an original cover plate to replicate... I can assist you and even contribute towards costs?

You could ask if there is anyone with VagCom near you in the "VAG-COM scanning & help" thread - you are miles away from me!

I think you have two issues: ABS and clutch. The fault codes listed seem to be engine related: 00513 - Engine Speed Sensor (G28) 00525 - Oxygen (Lambda) Sensor (G39) Regarding the ABS problem, you need the fault codes from the ABS module. Do you have access to VagCom/VCDS or such like? The ABS light can illuminate for many reasons - a faulty wheel sensor, or failing the power-on tests on the modulator. The only way to decide where to go next is guidance from the fault codes...

Anyone happen to have the part numer of the AC compressor from a 95 VR6 ?
Philly-R6 replied to Mawrick's topic in Engine Bay
It depends on your air con type: R12 or R134A http://www.vagcat.com/epc/cat/vw/COR/1995/76/50/843570/#4 357 820 803J refrigerant compressor with electro-magnetic coupling / F >> 50-N-020 000 SD-V-710 R12 -OR- 357 820 803R refrigerant compressor with electro-magnetic coupling / F 50-P-000 001>> R134A -
Hi, I have a good condition grey leather interior set from a late model VR6 Corrado (1995), comprising: * heated front grey leather seats * switch, relays and wiring harnesses for heated seats * rear seats (does not include warning triangle or first aid kit) * front leather door cards (compatible with late-model window switches, 1992-onward) * rear door cards * standard grey A, B and C pillar plastics * grey parcel shelf and grey rear speaker mounts (worked to accept larger speakers) * central tunnel trim - clad with grey leather * grey carpet set, including boot In terms of condition, the seating itself is in above-good condition for a 1995 manufacture date, but is nonetheless not perfect. Wear is commensurate with age, but with no rips or tears to report. It would appear that the two front seats have, to some extent, been restored in their lifetime by a previous owner. The door cards are similar in condition, with commensurate wear and just require re-gluing. All plastic mouldings are in good condition. The panel over the central tunnel has been custom-trimmed with a complementing grey leather. Condition is good mindful of its cabin position and exposure to wear/damage. The carpet set is in good condition, but shall require cleaning. No cutting/ripping, or noticeable burns to report. http://s410.photobucket.com/user/philip_grogan/library/Corrado%20Interior I am looking for £650 as a whole ( based upon this thread: http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?50293-Grey-leather-interior-value ). However, I'm open to a best-offer. I am located in South Manchester, near to Manchester Airport. I am away until 23rd June, but I can get additional photos on my return if required.

vagcat claims they are "4x9x8x1,2" http://www.vagcat.com/epc/cat/vw/COR/1995/76/56/848064/#12 Rivet diameter 4mm and length 9mm - could Cressa measure the real item? Reference: http://www.ebay.co.uk/gds/A-Guide-to-Rivet-Sizes-by-www-abouttownbolts-co-uk-/10000000019327603/g.html

Is this Bentley page regarding testing gauges any use? http://www.bentleypublishers.com/tech/vw/bentley.vw1301.testing.htm

I could be missing what you are really asking, but un-plug the wiring harness (should be attached to the rear engine mount - on right hand side of car) and unscrew the actual sensor from the exhaust.
-
I agree - that site is excellent. http://en.chateau-de-chanteloup.com/ We have two plots booked on the front lawn, near the swimming pool - come and find us! Look for a red/white R1 / red SLK / red Integrale / red Hilux and dark grey Insignia...

Permissions - VW Heritage details
Philly-R6 replied to Philly-R6's topic in Site Comments and Questions
Thank you for your responses. Reproduction steps: Scroll to the bottom of the main forum page to the "Club discounts and Advice" section Click "Other Discounts" Click "VW Heritage" You will be presented with one item named "Details", which is inaccessible The summaries indicate we are entitled to 5% discount. I was hoping the details thread contained a code we can stick in the VW Heritage checkout page... I will contact t700bes directly. -
Hi, I believe I have access to the "Details" thread of "Forum: VW Heritage" (http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?93118-Details), but I am denied permission to view it. Is there a problem with that thread or is it my account? (I'm pretty sure I renewed on 1st September 2015). Many thanks

You can try vagcat.com (http://www.vagcat.com/epc/cat/vw/COR/1995/76/52/845368) which requires free registration (you may have to make a post in the forum for the initial access?). Or Jim Ellis (http://www.jimellisvwparts.com/showAssembly.aspx?ukey_assembly=741680&ukey_make=1066&ukey_model=15552&modelYear=1995&ukey_category=21731&ukey_driveLine=8034&ukey_trimLevel=18933) which is free but don't think you see UK specific parts.

evo magazine looking to feature a corrado...
Philly-R6 replied to tonytiger's topic in General Car Chat
My copy of evo arrived today (220 - April 2016) and there is a feature on a Mystic Blue Storm (N4 AMA). -
I like your idea. Did you consider an OEM-like connector? Something like: VW USB Block&Cable for RCD510 RCD310 USB AUX Switch Cable Harness RCD510 RCD300 Admittedly, the other end of these leads would require modification to accept the standard connectors from your head unit...

Bentley Publisers have some interesting information regarding testing gauges: GUAGE AND INSTRUMENT TESTING WITH SPECIAL TOOL VW 1301

Hi Diarmaid, I'll take this kit off you. I remember missing out by a few days on the previous listing! Phil

Cool! Count me in - I'll take it. What do we do about money?
