Hi Can you let me know if this has been fixed/stopped mines doing the exact same but it gets worse and worse. Basically it pulls to the left slightly when driving and when the steering wheel is turned againt the natual left pull of the car there is a very loud squeak. as the the car pulls all the time and im constantly correcting this its constantly squeaking and really embarrasing as eveyone knows corrados get a lot of attention. Other things i have noticed with this - I was positive when the squeaking started it was on the opposite turn, i.e when i turned right it squeaked and now it doing this turning left. Also it doesnt do it on a inital drive when the car is cold, it tends to kick in once everything is warmed up. Can anyone give any advise/opinons on what to check, my thoughs on this are bearing, joints or wheel alignment (geometry) i dont think the brakes have any involvement? Thanks in advance Josh

Bolton is only 5 mins from the Unphased dub meets, check out http://www.un-phased.com and come along next week. Be nice to see another Corrado there[/quote:2pm8qbfz] Hi Adz, count me in. whens the next meet?

Your all too luck to be paying so less of a value, 21yrs old. 1yrs NCB £1400. this is TPFT too!!!!

Hi Mate Very, very nice looking. regarding the taillights ive gone for the smoked affect. mines black with a black rear badge, i think it looks good keeping a theme. i know everyone has a opinion and looking from your pics mine would be to go for the smoked ones too. all red would seem a bit much on the rear??

Mine does this sometimes but im on the old loom, just the drivers sidelight, goes of after a while but would love to know whats doing this

Hi Baylez Im running the same as you. 1.8 16v. MPG - Round town i average about 18-20 but thats driving normally then upto 25-30 on a motorway. ive also been told these MFA's are not pin point accurate. Watertemp - Same again mate, round town spopping at light ect its sat around 104 then drops to around 80-90 when on the motorway Oil Light - Mine was flashing and beeping when going round corners fast then it goes away, i topped up my oil and it has not done it since. As for the oil temp ive not had any problems. HTH.

Thats exactly what i was thinking, they dont look half bad from a distance this is why i wanted a pic of one fitted. They must look that shoddy no one has one.

Hi People Just thinking about one of these, anyone got one fitted? wouldnt mind looking at some proper pics instead of those horrid boy racer, carbon fiber pictures you see on google. Thanks

Hi Im interested in these definatly. if there as easy as they sound to fit then show me where i sign for them. Cheers

was probably me!! i hope it was, i'm desperate for a spot!!! :D[/quote:1i3s4x93] Wich one was you Martyn? the Black or Green, not seen you about before. u fancy a meet up middlebrook one time with Ebby?

Only had 2 spliffs, they help when the damn 18 year old screws refuse to turn and then lose thier thread. bullnose plyers worked a treat.

I changed my grill the other day but in a rush due the sun dissapearing on the horizon, a few day later and i wondered, where did i put my old grill??? searched everywhere and presumed id thrown it away not thinking. Then last saurday i went to check on the oil & water etc and there you go, my old grill sat ontop of my mani!!!! no damage to the old grill tho thankfully.

i know of a engine for sale in a MK2 Golf which is the 16V with the indiviual throttle bodies, apperently runnng 220bhp and he has a printout to show it. also seen a RS4 4.2 engine but i think this monster is too much for me

So i presume the 1.8T and the R32 are the easiest to do or its it done based on performance? i presumed there was a limit to wich engines go in and which dont. i would be changing the clutch and gearbox when the conversion takes place. so what would be a good engine to put in there, im not massively bothered about performace as it wouldnt be going on a track be being "ragged" everywhere i went. i would like something with a decent amount of power which wouldnt rape my wallet at the pumps. the 1.8T keeps coming into my mind but i feel this is too common?? any ideas anyone??

HI People ive got some pennies saving at the moment and its definaly going on a conversion, im currently running the 1.8 16V and i know the VR6 and the 1.8T can be put in my C but what else? ive found a Audi RS4 engine for sale and a Skoda VRS but im unsure if these are appliacble? also any other ideas of what will fit will be appriciated. Thanks

i've seen the white one on middlebrook before, what's yours like again pal? i'll keep my eye out for ya as i live just next to middlebrook Mines 1990 (H) black 16V, standard rims with exhaust and badles grill. keep seeing more and more popping up around Bolton :) if you see me flag me down.

Mate seen a balck C this morning approx 10.30ish on beaumont road in bolton Also seen a Green VR at ASDA on Mancester Road in bolton and a White C at Middlebrook in bolton. anyone on here?

Ive not had anything checked as i dont know where to get it done or how much, ive just lived with it. The plan is to do a conversion so ive never really spent time on the engine just changed a few bits and bobs. Its true what your saying about the cilynder being broke every start would be the same. Ive still got my mind set on it being a misfire of some sort. but i know nothing compared to the mods on here.

To be honest mate when i got it back in September 08 it was basically how you expain yours is, now 7 months down the line and its doing what i explained. Ive had a few people listen to it (not mechanics but knowledgeable) when ive started it and tried to drive away and each person has advised "its a cilynder down". :(

i have very similar problems with mine. it will fire up 1st time in a morning but then once exceleration is applied the engine wants to cut out. once its been running for 30 seconds or so it corrects its self. Similar if the car has been left for a few hours, its damn near impossible to start and when it does it idles at 400ish or cuts out. it think its a misfire or cylender down on initial start.

I cant remember what size it was to be honest, but i can check, he said it was dependant on how many silencers was on and that they are normally 1/4" smaller as its full flowing stainless. i didnt really get him and i was already down there so i just got it done. i asked him a few questions you would expect him to answer "immy" (apperently the man in charge) but he couldnt really expain any question. overall im happy with the work thats been done and seems a reasonable price but im no mechanic and for all i know he could have screwed me over?? but i have lifetime warrany on the exhaust so if anything ever goes wrong they will sort it out.

A1 your correct, the fuse had blown. thanks for your help

Any other ideas??

Ive had my drivers doorcard off and on quite a few times recently. could it be a loose connection?

Hi people Im having a few difficulties with the C at the moment. i have an alarm which bleeps if a door or boot is left open, normally 3 bleeps, yet the doors etc are closed yet the alarm still beeps???? Also the interior light has decided not to work, it this related?? Also the MFA screen is blank. Also the cigarette lighter deosnt work all have stopped/work incorretly at the same time please help as im off to alton towers tmoz and im losing faith. Thanks
