They are dirt cheap on ebay and i really have no idea if they would fit so i thought i`d ask

thanks for the reply! :)

Are 4 stud std. Honda prelude wheels 4 x 100 or 112 and does anyone know what offset they will be please,

basically i`d like to know if they would fit a 1.8 Corrado

thanks

i know what a maf is, my Golf tdi had one replaced last year by VW but does my Corrado 1.8 16v have a maf?

also where the hell is the bl**dy fuse box?

i only get to work on it on a sunday so i`m stuck until sat p.m. .....

thankyou please!!!

My brother in law had a problem *like* this with his car (e36 320 auto)

he said it was as if the car was steering from the rear, it may or *may not* be similar.

After about 2 weeks from first noticing it the rear hub assy. collapsed and the 1/2 shaft broke, he`s not sure what caused it but here was no noise at all. he fixed it and sold the car.

If you don't mind a slightly longer trip than to Midland VW, I'd recommend Madeley Testing Station near Ironbridge, they are regularly working on new / nearly new Evos / Impreza's etc, I have received superb service from them and the labour rate is a lot less than Midland VW. I have used Midland VW - good work but not exactly chatty / helpful

thanks, do you have the post code?

i`ll put it into multimap and have a look..... the lure of reasonable labour costs! :)

thanks for the welcome everybody 8) 8)

Thanks, erm........

it`s my son`s car (J50DUB) a 1.8 16v, the engine siezed up on him on the A38 near Derby:(

A mate of his saw a silver 8v GTI near Swadlincote for what seemed like a good price, so i gave him some cash for the Rado (too much tbh!!!)

and now it`s mine, it has a second hand 1.8 16v motor in it now

but it`s gonna be a money pit i should have broke it up but i don`t really want to, it won`t tick over evenly and the cam belt seems to be to tight, it sounds like it`s whinning. i`ve bought a second hand idle thingie and idle control box (?) so i`m going to try these first.

A local company put the engine in for us but i`m going back to ask them to re- check the cam belt, if they don`t do a satisfactory job then i`m off to see Midlland VW they were recommended by a work mate.

I need a drivers door, rear arches, front wing/s, a bonnet, a handbrake lever and the centre console e.t.c. from around the h/brake.

The (new) tyres on the front are wearing in an odd fashion offside is wearing on the outer edge and nearside is wearing on the inside.... then at the end of October it`s mot time???

what am i doing????

she who knows best will divorce me At this rate!

........i`m a newbie

i`ve been registered on here for a while, whilst looking for a project and now i have one i thought it best to introduce myself.

I should have done it ages ago according to my son j50dub but i could not see where to post so if this is in the wrong place please tell me.

Oh yes, i `spose youre all thinking god he must be an old fart...well yes i spose i am! :oops:
