I got mine today thanks very much. Fitted and I can now see in the dark! Has given the same bulbs a much whiter and more intense light. I would be interested to see how bright they are with uprated bulbs too! Well worth the money and easy to fit with the instructions provided, thanks Zak.

Cheers, PM'd back KUR2Y, but not sure if it's left my outbox yet... I would like a 3-relay if possible, can paypal anytime

I'd also like one of these if you still have spares? I have really noticed recently how terrible the standard headlights are! Ant

Actually you're right kipvr, its not worth discussing until i have some fault codes. I've just had it plugged into a "x431 Launch", and it came up with a few codes mainly to do with the ABS sensors, and also some others which i'm not too sure about? The codes were cleared and i took it for a quick drive, during which the problem i had before didn't occur. Plugged it back in and the only ABS fault code was: 00276 ABS outlet valve, rear left -N136 I assume as i didn't experience the previous problem mentioned in my first post, a code wouldn't be created for that? Any ideas whats up with the ABS outlet valve - or what it means exactly? Here are the printouts: http://i476.photobucket.com/albums/rr12 ... tcodes.jpg I appreciate any help with this & also what the cut wire could be that runs next to the ABS ECU? Thanks

Can anyone help me with this one?

Good evening Corrado people, Not had my '95 VR6 long, but already this forum has helped me diagnose and fix a few little problems i've found with it. Cleaned the ISV this weekend and the engine idles very nicely now! I've just trawled through a lot of ABS / pedal position sensor threads because i have a (what i've found to be quite common) problem. At low speeds the brakes sometimes suddenly become very sensitive, accompanied by a grinding / buzzing noise which then stops and brakes will revert back to normal - this only happens at low speeds thankfully! Over the last few days it has been doing this more often. I see this can be related to the pedal position sensor, which i may have to replace. I'm going to try to get the ECU fault codes read and see what that comes up with. The ABS light has never come on when the car is started, and from what i can tell i don't feel a pumping on the brake pedal from the ABS pump either. But surely if i am having the problem described above, then the ABS is working? The ABS dash light itself looks like it could be broken so will try replacing that. I had a look at the ABS ECU and it looked fairly clean / not corroded connections, but while there i did notice that there is a wire that has been cut which runs round the back and under the ECU, then along the top of the sill under the plastic cover towards the rear seats. Looking at the cut end of the wire it is made up of a collection of thin wires and a couple larger, moulded together. If you look at it looks like a large O next to a small o (if that makes sense)! ( Oo ). I couldn't find another end of it where it could have been cut from. Any ideas what this wire is that has been cut? And any more suggestions on the brake problem very much appreciated. Thanks, Ant

(Please excuse me if this is the wrong place to post on this forum) Hello everybody, I'm new here and would like to say hello to everyone, and also ask a couple of questions as i don't know anything about corrados......yet. I currently drive a 2001 polo gti, which i have owned for 2 years. I have been a member of a polo forum since buying the car and have found that to be a great source in finding out info and fixing problems etc, and i hope that if i get a corrado then this site may be the same. I bought the polo, thinking that it being a "modern" car would suffer less from reliablity issues and would be cheap to run and maintain. I have spent more on the polo than any car i've owned yet! Partly due to my addiction to modifying cars of course, but also due to some things i'd rather not have had to spend. Anyways, i have a thirst for more power and i feel the time has come to sell the polo and upgrade to a more reliable (i hope!), better looking, better handling, faster motor car vehicle. Firstly i have got an insurance quote for a standard corrado vr6, and it was cheaper than what i pay for my polo with its mods declared (lowered, induction). And selling prices for both cars are similiar, so won't have to pay out much. Now for a few questions: 1. Are vr6s very costly to tax, service and run? 2. Is there a certain mileage to look out for? i.e. is there a point at which most things that can go wrong, will have done, and been repaired? 3. Is it true that the timing chain/cam belt does not need replacing on a vr6? 4. Will a bmx fit in the back? 5. Does anyone want a polo gti! Sorry for boring you if you got this far, Cheers! ant
