    The sender might be the problem causing the oil light to flicker.. the gauge readout is sitting below 1bar, so somethings not right.. oil pumps been replaced, so has the pressure switch... Thanks for yr email mate yes after speaking to you & mate at auto-werks convinced the switch isnt working at 2nd speed... so like you mentioned will try the earth & wire to the batt to see if it works etc... its drives ok.. but still seems abit slow on pickup... maybe its time for big power :lol:

    16v running hot...

    I hope it is a airlock.. althought we did get alot of them out.. weve stuck in 2 bottles of G12 coolant... still finding it stranger why it running warmer though.. are there any other oil/water sensors on the back of the block? as a friends just mentioned it to me??

    16v running hot...

    the fans kicking in after the halfway mark on the temp guage, its just getting hotter alot quicker than it used to for some reason... there was alot of air bubbles when we was bleeding up the system... i asumed it would run alot cooler with a new pump & thermo... oil temp seems to get rise alot quicker then it did... ive fitted a new oil cooler too lol
  15. as above, big thanks to davidwort for giving up a lovely sunday to work on my damm corrado.. basically we replaced the worn waterpump & thermo, but it seems the car runns even hotter than it did?? water temp nearly hitting 110 & the oil temps hitting 124plus? oil pressure is fine, been tested, changed the oil pressure switch abt a month ago.. ive done a head rebuild abt 2k ago & oil pump, sump gasket, oil cooler & HG... any ideas peeps?
  16. James lovely set of wheels... Car looks amazing... alltime fav corrado back in the day when asim ran it on RS301's... :D
