C_0019.jpg my 2nd transporter i modded i think some one on this forum own her now http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh15 ... 6-1221.jpg my 1st ever vw :D http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh15 ... bug001.jpg

this is my 2nd first was a 16v got stolen :censored: had the vr since november been off the road passed 2 weeks gotta put a clutch in it but jst havnt got round too it might get on it tomorrow and take it out for a blast :D

nr llantrisant mate u?

take indicators and fogs out then 4 17mm bolts two either side underneath look like this http://www.the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/downlo ... &mode=view

sorry i couldnt find it :epicfail: thanks for your help im on the phone now hoping for a healthier vr :D also i have changed crank sensor a few weeks ago connected it too snap on souls pro and its sayin crank sensor fault any ideas on what could be causing this?

i have just bought a clutch kit for my c and would like too know the part numbers for chains and tensioners as its done 150k and im feeling generous. also where would be the cheapest place to buy piston rings and all required parts too change them (gaskets head bolts etc)

i have phoned vw and given them the chassis number, they said they might be able too get a key from the code on the computer and will get back to me today. i will look in the bentley manual later and look for some tips. 4 prev owners contacted last 1 and no spare key. the main problem is gettin the alarm disarmed gunna phone a friend later who fits alarms fingers crossed.

i left my keys to my C in a friends house and he has lost them :censored: any ideas if i can get a key cut using my chassis number? also i have a sigma alarm and either have to remove it or see if i can get a new fob. any ideas welcome

same prob with mine and it was the the batt -ve loose where it bolts to the body

yesterday front bumper smoothed and debadged grill with eyebrows fitted i fitted new rear discs pads and wheelbearings and had a :censored: of a job getting the bolts out of the carrier. fitted a new bonnet pull cable sanded all my wheels ready for primer 2moz painted my front calipers

i bought a proper spray gun all you do with the metal flake is add the desired amount to the laquer it was just time consuming not difficult the other good thing is i scratched the wheel an all i had too do is use t-cut and the scratch went :clap:

heres my attempt too takes time though

i done this too mine ill try and get a better pic 2moz this was b4 i polished it and put plug leads and holder back together

my uncle who works on the gritters done the same thing to a brand new bmw only don 12 miles and he got taken too court :clap: lol

they were under the glove box held on with velcro :clap: come at the right time too as i need new exhaust

today i found out my sunroof hasnt been closed all weekend and found 2inches of water in passenger side :mad2: so i took the carpet out and found two pioneers units 1.pioneer avic x3 hide away unit with all wires 2.pioneer cd-btb200 looked on ebay and there is a no1 goin for£410 and no2 will work on my radio :clap: so the water was a good thing at once :D

im after the plastic that sits on inlet manifold to hold the plug leads tidy

any one tell me the part number for the plug lead holders for a vr6?

same here i sold my subaru to get back into the vws thought it would be better on fuel too but i was wrong lol ohh well

well i done the same got 60miles max so any info would be appreciated

cheers i will have a look now, its my first vr6 and thought 150k is a lot :shrug:

yeah :epicfail: sorry didnt explain the engine is coming out anyway an i thought as its got 150k on it would be better to buy a 2nd hand engine and rebuild it on a bench rather than have the car off the road.

i have bought a corrado 1995 vr6 with 150k on clock and it pulls brill but i think i have cam chain rattle and a slight oil leak. i was thinkin about buyin a 2nd hand engine of ebay but all of them seem to be 2.8 not 2.9 does it make much difference in performance? my father has his own garage and i have good enough knowledge of mechanics so i can do all the work myself. or would it be easier to rebuild my engine? if so where do i get the parts and what parts would you say i should change? i have heard that US is the cheapest place to get parts?

just got home to my house and heard a booosh lol blown a coolant pipe on my vr :mad2: can any body tell me the best place to buy a samco kit maybe? or any performance coolant pipe kit as i think if one went they all may be weak?
