Looke like my first major prob with my rado, when i come of the throttle then put it back on i get a rather large plume of smoke behind me, and she is goin through oil like no-ones business, someone has commented that my stem seals could be shot, any ideas roughly how much this is gonna cost me and is it a tough job to get done. Also have a small oil leak from underneath the car but think its just a seal thing too (finger crossed). Hehe the joys :x

Jus wondering if anyone can help me out in this department, My 94 vr6 is not runnin correctly, its of one maybe 2 cyclinders. When running the engine, if i remove the spark plug lead one by one (putting them back on before taking another one of, of course), 3/4 of them result in def engine drop, but on 1 there is jus a slight change on and on another there is no change, so i might be thinkin faulty spark plug??? However all of the lead spark ok, My next query is can i replace the plug without dismantling everythin, i'm not very gd at car mechanics, dont mind working at my fireblade but do hav a haynes to help. Does this plastic plug removal thing remove the leads and the plug or os it just to get the leads off, and also when u r screwing them bck on do they eventually stop/lock, or do they jus go so far?? Sorry all this prob sounds daft to some of u but i aint got a clue, but wud like to try some work out myself. Thanx if u can help!!

Ok My Rear Corrado Badge was hanging off a bit so i took it of completely. I notice it should hav 4 prongs mine has 3, obv one broke and prev owner had been using sticky tape for this corner. Now, i notice on one of the prongs a wee blue lug type thing which keeps that end it very well so i take it all the prongs should have these on, however they dont only one has. I guess i am asking how i can get this back on the car without losing it when i go out. R these wee blue lugs available from VW or could i stick the badge on some other way. Thanx
