Did you fit new tappets when doing the chains?

I'd expect more bent valves if the timing had slipped, looks like something fell in there when the plugs were out or the head has fallen off one of the valves? Plenty of crusty MK3 vr6s available to transplant there engines to your C, use your inlet and throttle body and you're not far off 2.9 power anyway

Ooops, sorry

WOW! How cheap are they!

It starts with a push or tow, so that pretty much rules out factory or aftermarket immob. The click will be the starter solenoid

Bottom corners of the radiator on any car My other halfs A3 yesterday

ECP list both v5 and vr6 at 1.8KW, 1.9 TDi (AHU 02A gearbox and G60 type flywheel so should fit VR6s?) at 1.9KW

I think Glosterox has one fitted to his car, I'm kicking myself as I've thrown 2 away........

Spark, Fuel, Compression, Timing and an engine should run You say the leads etc are correct but don't say if you've seen a spark at the plugs? The other end of the jump lead is earthed on the engine block You say there's fuel at the injectors, but don't say if they are injecting fuel into the cylinder (remove the plugs after cranking and check to see if they're wet with petrol) Compression test Use a strobe light on the crank pulley mark to confirm number one cylinder is firing when it should

If you have decent jump leads, use one from the neg terminal on the battery to the engine block (replicating the engine earth).

Check the battery terminals and the connection on the starter and the main engine earth, the battery may measure as good but you have a supply problem, engine earth loose, corroded, damaged would be my guess

I wouldn't worry about that tiny difference tbh. Both sensors alarm for LOW pressure, the lowest is for LOW pressure below 2000 RPM, the higher is LOW pressure above 2000 RPM.

Poor hot starting is a typical Coolant Temp Sensor fault. Is your aux coolant pump working?

I've just bought this one, will post a pic when it arrives http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/141843935226?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Can you post a pic of the valve please?

Can I suggest you give the option of a spare relay for diagnostic purposes in the future? ECP have Phillips 30% brighter H4s at half price at the moment (I had to get H3s off ebay as ECP only stock Osram H3s). http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Volkswagen_Corrado_2.9_1994/p/car-accessories/winter-essentials/winter-maintenance/upgrade-headlamp-bulb/?48177019P&0&cc5_847%5Ecc5_1051%5E http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252155290155?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

In the fourth pic? Silver 6 spokes

The next time you have the wheel off and want to undo the hub nut just put an old screwdriver or similar in the disk vent against the caliper. I have a Sealey 24V gun, but still have to crack tight stuff off with a long bar

Uprated bulbs?

My NSF CV was stuck solid in the hub, I had to use a press to get it out (3 legged puller failed miserably), I'd recommend spraying penetration fluid prior to removal to allow it to soak in if necessary.

I've got a Rayne loom to fit this week, what's been the issue with yours?

Are those your new wheels?

You need to match the part number, some have one plug, others 2 plugs. The last 2 letters on the part number give the type you need

Standard Corrado?
