  1. I have an interior advertised on here that is selling much more reasonably than those you have seen. Have you viewed it? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. If you require an ATE master cylinder I have one advertised on this forum which will fit your Corrado. But first make sure this is what you require, no point in panic purchase to compound your woes! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. The problem you are having is very common with the ABS system on the VR6. It is not uncommon at all to find that the brake pedal feel is poor post works involving opening the hydraulic system. If you are sure in the fact that you have thoroughly, and correctly, bled the system with fresh fluid. Then providing there are no actual faults with the system operation other than pedal long travel, you will find that driving the vehicle with the appropriate caution for a week should see the return of normal function. Clearly if the brake system will not render an acceptable brake pedal reponse then driving is out of the question, but the pedal will often have long travel with a good operation.

  4. It has no part no. Per say as it is sold off the role by the metre. You will need to contact your local dealer or TPS centre. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    ecu differences

    Your problem is that the ecu you have is not seeing the immobilisor signal it requires and is cutting the engine straight after start up. You require to either get the ecu you have recoded to your immobilisor, if you have one. Or to squire the correct ecu pre immobilisor. Or to buy my ecu and immobilisor package I have advertised on here. Call me on 07964020031 If you need more explanation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Unburnt fuel not normal to produce White smoke. Black smoke is produced by unburnt or excessively rich fuel emissions. Blue smoke generated by engine oil being burnt. White "smoke" or steam as it should be referred to is a produced from water present in the emmissions. If your car has a cat then you can expect an amount of steam emissions on warm up phase, as water will be being burnt up in the system as it is a by product of what the cat generates. If the steam is continuous and excessive then there is likely to be an engine water containment fault allowing coolant into the combustion process, most commonly head gasket failure. Are you loosing coolant? Is the steam continuous? Is it steam at all, or blue smoke oil emissions. Is the engine running ok or is misfiring or rough at idle? Is the engine difficult to start when hot? Just some of the questions you need to answer for yourself as part of the deductive process. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  8. Andy at at Trim Wizard top fella for the job can't recommend any other more highly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. I have the answer Nigel, put them both in the car and i'll add it to the list of jobs allready booked in with John's Corrado.
  10. Didn't sound like a lambda fault, glad to help fella. Wish I had a £1 for every time that prob has come to my attention at the garage over the years past. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    9A Metering unit

    Kempy, I think you're having a laugh! 10 days ago you "most probably" wanted this part from me, and left me hanging waiting for confirmation. I waited, but no reply. Sorry mate can't wait forever, it's sold. Hope another is out there for you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    headlining

    Not a problem my friend, if you can find another at all out there happy hunting. Very rare obsolete parts don't get given away. Good luck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Check your boost pressure hose from back of the throttle body to ECU. If this is split, detatched or otherwise faulty it will cause the engine to run over rich, have a poor idle, and generate blackened smoke from exhaust. This hose should measure exactly 1 metre long, so if it is damaged replace it with a new one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. I am based in Rustington, West Sussex, right on the coast. You wellcome to collect. If this is not possible I will need your full post code and house number to work out postage, at a guess I would think it is going to be about £25.00 but send me details to check options and cost. With regard to manifold I do not have anything to offer which is used, but there have been items come up on this forum recently. Please feel free to call me tommorrow with the details. Best regards, John. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Hi Ben I have just exactly that which you want in your post. This is a stainless steel system with OEM style tailpipe. The system is able to be fitted to both early and late Corrados, as it has both hook and bar type hanger mounts, and is in very good condition. I have heard the system when it was fitted to a 16V, and the exhaust sound was subtle not unlike a Milltek. I am selling the system for £175.00 plus p&p. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. I assume your question is pure conjecture, as I don't see your name listed as a buyer? Indeed you are "missing something".The purpose behind the group buy in this case is to make it possible to generate this product. The cost of production to manufacture a high quality two part mould is extensive, and for a manufacturer a minimum quantity order is required to have any kind of economic viability. Mike has to secure a minimum of 10 unit orders to ensure that viability. Without this initial order there quite simply would not be a product to buy. I for one am extremely grateful that companies like Performance Trim will entertain short run unit production. The price being charged for a full carbon tailgate I find very reasonable, especially knowing the high standard of Performance Trim's work. Furthermore the the fibreglass version is exceptionally good value. The purpose of a group buy is not allways to reduce the purchase price, especially when that price is acceptably competative. As is illustrated in this case, it can be also to encourage a manufacturer to generate new product tailored to specific needs. High end bespoke composite bodywork is never going to be a cheap option, but through the medium of group buy purchase it is at least made an option. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Thanks Mike, I will confirm my order for a full carbon item tommorrow. And place a 50% deposit as requested. I would like to also state my interest in a carbon plinth. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2.0 16v 9a ecu

    I have a 9a ECU that also comes with immobilisor box and key transponder so it can be plug and play. I want £65.00 for the lot plus postage or collect from me in Sussex. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. I don't think Peter Saywell can stay away from Goodwood as he was there today with one of his toys, today it was the Zonda. Hopefully we will see you there at the next meet. I am thinking of getting over to the Brooklands breakfast meet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. Well as I am clearly not "a good Corrado owner" I enjoyed a superbly well attended Goowood Breakfast Club meet. Had the pleasure to meet up with "Harrier", and discuss our cars etc etc. The circuit was stacked much like the Germanarques meet in November last year.Fantastic metal on show this morning, as allways a very worthwhile way to enjoy a Sunday morning. Shame there was not any more poor Coorado owners to share the experience with. My first drive out this season was very entertaining and the light foggy start to the day improved inducted air no end!
