  1. "Man in the shed" does group buys on CGTi and other forums, he does the heads for many of the big names in VW tuning, but stays behind the scenes working rather than talking on the telephone / internet so I can't find any contact details online (the mods on CGTi have his contact details, maybe someone on here too?). If you google "man in the shed heads" there's a few links for this forum / CGTi etc, the pics of his work look amazing.
  2. I suspect its the aux water pump, unplug it and see if the noise stops
  3. May swap for VR6 parts, ie gearbox with 3.68 and LSD, Cams, big valve head etc What have you got?
  4. If your ultimate goal is turbo then this is the perfect opportunity to do it? There's plenty of 12V heads around if yours proves to be cracked. I hope things pan out whichever way you decide to go
  5. Youll need the correct part number for the abs light as there plugs differ

    New Storm

    Might be worth stating the reg number?
  7. You might want to say where you are as "In a galaxy far away" might put a few people off?
  8. The red one was at the NEC in march? £9k or there abouts?
  9. http://www.classiccarauctions.co.uk/vw-corrado The 3rd Corrado at auction so far this year, dealers are noticing them? Edit, theres a second http://www.classiccarauctions.co.uk/vw-corrado-16v

    Rattly VR6

    If its making a racket like that and the big ends are the problem it's highly likely the crank is scored too, and that's an engine out job to have the crank reground, inspect all bearing surfaces before ordering bearing shells
  11. Its been on ebay several times before the auction http://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/252297854993

    Rattly VR6

    Take the sump off and inspect the oil pump and its pick up, cheapest and quickest check for poor oil pressure, someone here had the pump securing bolts loose, another a cracked pick up pipe or it could be blocked?
  13. Its fixable with a smart repair, i would not have initiated a claim in the first place. A barrister will get you the result you think you deserve.
  14. When you say cleaned the relays do you mean there replay plate pins or taken the covers off and cleaned inside and checked for dry solder joints? Do the needles on the dash plummet to there stops when the dault appears shen driving?

    Rattly VR6

    Its almost impossible to diagnose noises via a video, its hard enough stood in front of them. Oil pressure and compression tests would be a good starting point
  16. Not sold, the seller must have declined the offer (it was sold provisionally as it didn't meet its reserve).
  17. I think they should have reworked a front bumper on the rear to extend the back a little, Audi lights are just wrong, otherwise I do like the shooting brake concept.
  18. You've got to be kidding? What advantage would the Corsa driver gained from that collision?
  19. £2000 plus fees provisional. Stolen if it sells
  20. 107 k on the clocks
  21. http://www.classic-auctions.com/Auctions/18-05-2016-DoningtonPark-1415/1989VolkswagenCorrado18-41150.aspx Very clean car
  22. I cant read that, did find this tho http://www.dimsport.es/es/files/Milltek-Volkswagen.pdf
  23. http://www.millteksport.com/products.bymodel.cfm?modelid=63 I don't think those part number refer to Milltek?
