mine flames some times, I put it down to the shit Jabba Chip

**UPDATE** I've added an earth to the clocks to the brown wire and it's still doing it. And there is no change. The fan isn't cutting in, but is working when I bridge the connector with some wire. The twist is, even when I make the fan come on, it isn't effecting the temps?? I have tried the air lock idea, also with no luck. What's next? Front water sensors? Cheers Dan

hail the great one :notworthy: What colour is the earth wire on the back of the clocks?

Sounds like timing or air/fuel or both is out.

I did think about that, but as you said, it wouldn't explain the spoiler. I'm getting the both senders at lunch, if that doesn't work I'll do the thermostat at the weekend. I'm putting the spoiler down to a coincidence at the moment and will see how it goes. If the spoiler isn't related to the heat problem, can anyone explain why it would go up as normal, but not down unless I use the manual override switch??? Cheers Dan

mines just developed another wheel wobble, which means I have to poly bush the rest of my front end, no doubt I'll need another set of new front tyres as a result, my hand brake is becoming a complete pain which could lead to replacement of both rear callipers & to top it all off it's just (as in tonight) developed a spooky over heating problem!! I haven't had a problem in about 6/8 months from her, as soon as I plan to start modding again this all happens!! And it doesn't happen just before I pay for a new mod or 2, NO! it does it a couple of days after!!! Topping it all of, the bent a woman put in my door last months seeems to be taking ages to go through insurance, and now even if the body shop was ready for the car, it can go till the over heating problem is sorted! I HATE CARS!! Faith is out the window!

Will give it a go tomorrow night when I can devote some time to it in the light. Thanks all, keep the suggestions coming!!

Just warmed the car up, it seems to be chucking loads of water into the header tank?? It looks as though there is 2 much in there now?? I topped it up the other day to the max & it's been fine all saturday, sunday & most of today The plot thickens.................

I was thinking electrical. I always leave the car in the garage over night, also I have used it to go to work & back today, then went out this afternoon & then it's all started.

I was driving along tonight, when my water light came on. Then I looked at the gauge & the temp was over 110 and slowly rising!!! :shock: I stopped the car, opened the bonnet, expecting to see water pi55ing out of a pipe................ and nothing???!?!! Header tank is still under pressure, no water on the road?? I spent a good 10 minutes looking round it trying to find out what was wrong, with no luck. I got back in the car, started it up & it was find. Must have got half a mile away it does it again! So again I'm under the bonnet & can see nothing wrong??? But then I also spotted the spoiler has stayed up?? It works fine on the manual switch, and when driving raises as normal, but won't go down on it's own! The car keeps chucking this warning light up, but the hoses don't feel any hotter than normal? Anyone any idea's? I thought it could be a dodgy thermostat? But then why the spoiler? There doesn't seem to be any fuses blown?? Thanks Dan

When I did mine, I used some thicker gearbox oil than the normal stuff. Did the trick, felt much better.

Here's some good ones of mine

Ooh, SO close! Green VR6 seen three times on the A33 heading towards Reading. You had a personalised plate of some kind. I was in my black valver heading south. I've waved a few times... I don't get to Reading much. Drive past it on my way yo work in the mornings, but that's about it. I do see the Green VR6 your talking about on the A33 - No. Plate AND4 He doesn't use the forum.

You can't have anything nice without some little (unt messing with it.

Met up with Bally last Monday! Love those wheels!! & how small was your sterring wheel!!! Also met Blue MK2 at the weekend. Seemed a nice chap!

yeah mine has all the chassis number etc on her still (interior & wheels were stolen at the time). Though history only goes up to 2000. Still, she's had the best part of 8 or 9k spent on her since then!

My car is Cat D stolen recovered & isn't a q plate

I think it would nice if everyone some how got their corrado in there. Fair to all & everyone will want a copy.

will be sweet once she's all done!

defo something to check though, thanks :thumbleft:

I can't actually check as I don't have the car with me, but I'm pretty sure they are ok.

I found the cable to be fine. I adjusted it, and it was working fine for about 2 weeks. At the weekend it started to get worse again, so I tried adjusting it again, but this time with no luck. When you pull the handbrake up, it feels as though it's as normal, stiff & goes up a couple of clips, but it's not bighting well at all. I can move the car by pushing it with the handbrake on fully!!! Am I looking at replacing the callipers? Garage said that's what I'm looking at.

If my car was in it I'd pay what ever it costs for one.
