I've had a problem for a while with my brakes on my VR6. When I'm driving very slowly in town traffic, the ABS system starts working even when I've not touched the brakes. They don't stop the car, but the 'motor' is whurring away until I dab the brakes and then the system cuts in and slams on the brakes and releases them when I immediately release the peddle. It then stops the motor from whurring, but it will start again shortly after. I've changed all the sensors and it's still happening. Does anyone have any ideas?

Mine has always used oil, but now it's using 1 litre per 350-400 miles and puffing smoke out the exhaust on some occasions.

Thanks for the welcome. So perhaps 2.5K is a reasonable amount, relatively speaking! I live in central London if that is any good for Stealth Racing?

Hi, My Corrado VR6 has covered over the 100,000 and has been burning an increasing amount of oil. Now it's burning almost a litre/refill of fuel. Puffs of smoke occasionally out of the exhaust. I'm told I need to have the engine replaced. Taking it out and replacing damaged parts would be as costly? I've been quoted £2,500 for the whole job, which seems a little steep to me. Does anyone have any useful tips to bring the cost down? Cheers Rory
