  1. Get it checked out mate. I was hit up the arse a couple of weeks ago. When i got out and looked at my car ( MK4 GOLF ) there was only a small dent in the back bumper so i thought nothing of it. Any way i went through my insurance and the shunt had pushed all the back panel behind the bumper into my spare wheelwell and then the bumper sprung back out. Well i got my car back on saturday ( after 2 weeks ) and it cost the insurance copmany £1800 to repair. But the other side is paying for it as well as my injury claim?
  2. Here is one that i use and its only £9.95. https://www.mycarcheck.com/
  3. Would you be able to fit a set of 18" with no alteration? Or what alteration would i need?
  4. Whats the largest alloy wheel you can fit to a vr6 with the standard suspension fitted? I've done a search and could'nt find any topics.

    vr6 engine oil

    Would 10/30 semi be ok for a 1993 vr6 with 158k on the clocks? Only i have been given 5 litres of the stuff and i need to do a oil change.

    Push button start

    Right then folks i have got the new switch fitted and all is now well. The car car starts as normal now. The only problem i had is the little bloody screw, I ended up smashing the old switch of as the screw was so tight.

    Push button start

    Ok i have found the wire it was the starter feed wire. It was tucked up under the dash? Only problem i have now is i cannot get the screw out to remove the ignition switch, Will try again tomorrow as it is to dark now to carry on.

    Gearbox cables

    I managed to get a good corrado vr6 gearbox but i now have to wait while the guy takes it off. But hopefully it will only be a few days. So does anyone know how much it would cost to fix the 5th gear in my old box or should i just sell it on? ( How much would it be worth? all gears are fine apart from 5th )

    Push button start

    I got the ignition switch from the dealers this morning and it cost me £17.68 plus the vat. The part number is 6N0-905-865 just in case anyone wants to get one for there corrado. I will fit it tomorrow and let you all know the outcome.

    Push button start

    Hi folks, It's about time i started work on my corrado ( now xmas is out the way ) My corrado vr6 will not start off the key it has a push button start instead? So i was wondering if the ignition switch was knackered so that is why someone fitted the daft start button. Also it was fitted at a garage as i have a receipt (£45.00) for supply and fitting of the switch. So do you folks think it could be the ignition switch or something else?

    Gearbox cables

    Right then folks after plenting of messing around i have decided that it is my gearbox. It still drives but i have no 5th gear, So does anyone know where i can get one from? I have sourced a couple myself but one is a bit far away and the other i have been told whine's.
