Sorry just realised your selling the front rubber flex hoses. Can the calipers be had New?
-
I'll have a look at the HEL hoses as well thanks.

Hi mate juat looking at that goodridge kit it would make sense to get that and go brand new calipers on the rear how much are you looking for the pair of calipers?
-
Vw heritage couldn't help in the end.
-
Sorry i know this topic had been done to death and I have been using the search function but can anyone advise me on the correct goodridge kit and what rear calipers that kit suits and whether it would be worth replacing the rears also. Thanks.

Still waiting for vw heritage to get back in touch about the goodridge kit and whether they can justvsupply the front hoses. I'd imagine this would place more strain on the other rubber flex pipes though. What calipers are worth upgrading to for the rears as ive heard the standard vr6 rear calipers suede up?. Ideally I'd buy a lot that would allow me to replace all the hoses and upgrade the rear calipers. I dont want to have to buy a full kit only to be able to use the front hoses. Are the golf vr6 calipers that would come in the kit a worthwhile upgrade?

After speaking with my local VW parts department it looks like the VAG hoses mentioned in another thread have been discontinued which leaves this kit; SVW0604-6P. I'm still waiting to hear back from VW heritage about a pair of conversion hoses just for front brakes made by Good ridge. Is it worth purchasing the SVW0604-6P kit and upgrading to the late mk3 golf rear calipers aswell?
-
Maybe the rear hoses fit a caliper on the rear that would be worth upgrading to?
-
Cheers, do you have a part number for the right kit?
-
Just cost. I thought you had to buy a full kit front and rear from goodridge?

Hi im rebuilding a pair of 288mm front calipers and am on the hunt for a set of hoses that will fit. The car is a N reg Vr6 and the calipers are the banjo type. After searching the forum I've found a few options. Can anyone conform that 1H0611701B is the correct part number for one of the oem hoses for this set up please as i just want to be sure before ordering. The car is on standard suspension, cheers.

Cheers. I'm just going to make sure that's my problem as the motor does work but intermittently. My plan is to remove the cassette from the car give it a good clean and regrease and replace any worn/broken parts if they are available. VW heritage were stocking more corrado parts last time I looked on their site and they listen to enthusiasts who need a common part/parts remanufacturing so it may be worth a representive from the club having a word about this? Maybe this has already happened but if not just a thought to save a lot of broken sunroofs.

Great had a look at that. Looks useful, are my symptoms indicitave of a particular fault or could they be a result of a combination of things?. For the motor to operate smoothly on tilt but intermittently on slide would this suggest that the motor would probably be ok?. I'll be having a good look at it next week but just trying to be as prepared as I can. I bought the recommended grease to my lubricate the mechanism with but noticed in that thread there was mention of using a spray lubricant instead. I understand the idea behind grease attracting dirt and then becoming more of a problem but surely it's acceptable in a fairly discreet location like this? Plus it's what vw recommended I believe?.

So possibly remove the motor and put a spot of paint on cables and motor teeth that were engaged before disassembly? Is he interested to know more about this plastic circular piece, are they available still do you know? Thanks.
