MARK 16V

1.8 16v for the saving in fuel I thought I might get over a vr but I don`t think theres much in it. And the fact that the corrado I bought had low mileage on it.

Did you spray yours like in the link above. Good to know I won`t have to start messing around with bulbs as I intend to try spraying my lights tomorrow.

If it was the matrix wouldn`t blow cold all the time. It seems to me alittle strange that it only seems to blow cold when it get upto tempreture. It was fine until I went on a trip to pick up a beetle for the wife and we got stuck in traffic and thats when I noticed it started blowing cold. Then when we got on a stretch and the engine cooled down it maybe seemed to blow warm maybe. I being extremely vague i know but one things for sure it seems okay when the engines first warming up at the beginning of the day..

Hi, I have this same problem at the moment. I have a 1.8 16v early corrado and when the engine is warming up the heating is nice and warm but it seems that when it gets up to tempreture the heating blows cold. Any ideas.. Cheers,Mark...

My main rattle or squeak comes from the panel that houses the interior light and sunroof switch and it`s constant. It`s driving me insane the only round round it for me is to open or tilt the sunroof then it seems to stop. No idea why that solves it. Other than that mines pretty quiet...

I had the same problem and it was the 4 speed switch itself that was faulty on mine.

Does spraying them all red cause problems with the colours of the indicators (flashing red) and reverse lights. If so is there a way round this other than pinstriping the lense. Cheers,Mark...

My first car was a renault 5 turbo. £1800 to insure and the 2nd worst car I`ve ever owned but it went like stink. The worst car I ever owned wassss.. a mk2 scirocco.

Lol, Haven`t quite managed giving strangers the bird but always guilty for flashing people I think I know until they pass me with the who the f*ck are you look are their face. Thanks to the sites top notch search engine I`ve managed to sort the internal leak on my car. It was the heater thing under the scuttle, a good amount of sealant under it and a few more days rain and no leak. Love it...

Well I took the vent under the scuttle apart today when it finally stopped raining and it seems that the gasket was retaining alot of water so sealed it up with sealant. Only time will tell now if that was the problem. Also managed to bodge/fix my windscreen wipers because every time it rains and I used my wipers the arm linking the motor to the wiper arm would come off while driving so I drilled and tapped a hole through the ball joint and put a bolt through abit dodgy I know but it works. Job done for now (hopefully). Anyone on here got a spare centre cap for a sebring alloy. Mr Sands I live just off junc 4 in Rednal. Thers a couple of rado`s about round here, one I see quite often is a green vr6 and a black one aswell (not sure what type though). Will post pics up as soon as I take some...

Thanks for the welcome. All electrics work on it in fact I`m sure the guy I bought it off bought it from someone off here. Reg H422 YNU (I think). Anyway thanks for the advice on the leak I`ve had to give up on it today as it`s still chucking it down outside. Have searched through older threads and it could possibly be the heater vent thingy so when it dries off alittle I`ll take that apart and put sealant round. P.s Tim like the cupholders, great mod

Hi all, Just thought I would say hello to one and all. I live in south Birmingham near Bromsgrove. I had originally a mk2 golf 16v but sold it and bought an aqua blue 1.8 16v rado on a H plate. Absolutely lovin` the car at the moment minus a few problems here and there. Will post some pics up soon of it and maybe some of you can give me some advice here and there as it is absolutely standard at the moment with a leaky foootwell aswell. Getting married this year so this has kind of put mods on the back burner for now so will have to make do with solving the 'issuses' first.
