  1. I've got a hotgolf lightened flywheel waiting on the shelf for when my engine comes out.
  2. If you don't know when the fluid was last changed I'd change it asap after a full inspection of all brake lines underneath the car and caliper seals etc for leaks. If you lose the pedal after changing the fluid and there are no external leaks suspect the master cylinder to be toast I bled my DBP twice, on the right is the first flush, second on the left
  3. I have a dragon green rear, free if you can get it picked up - I don't want to package it. 10 mins from j16 M6
  4. If the seals on the master cylinder are poor fluid leaks past them into the reservoir, if the seals on the slave are leaking the fluid ****es on the floor via the bellhousing. I'd bleed it first if it was mine
  5. What about adjustable cam sprockets, worth it or not? Most heads have been skimmed by a fair chunk to remove pitting moving the sprockets closer to the crank pulley (or in this case the intermediate shaft pulley) putting standard timing out, anyone tried them?
  6. Dox

    G60 woes!

    How long since the fuel filter was changed? Check all breather pipework for splits etc
  7. Your car looked quite low a week ago?
  8. The main bearing caps only fit the block they were machined to fit, they're line bored (or align bored), the main caps are bolted to the block before they're bored so that they're 100% perfectly round.
  9. What do they weigh? My Comp THs weigh 16.8KG with a 195 Toyo part worn, I have 17 RCs without tyres so I'd be be interest in the weight including tyres please:)
  10. A battery is just storage for when the engine's not running, once running the alternator should produce enough power to enable all the cars electrical systems to run even if you removed the battery completely.
  11. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vw-Corrado-Vr6-2-9-Wide-Body-/321441889734?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4ad76dfdc6 He's not kidding
  12. If you don't drink, don't smoke etc and NEED them you'll pay ££££s for what ever you want. They're in your sight and if the roof is polished to perfection a tatty set of trims will stand out like a sore thumb, I could live with it, others can't. The chances are a copy would be less durable than OE VAG parts in the same way all other replacement parts are?
  13. I think you'll find 4 or 5 different types with differing plug arrangements at the rear? You need to post up the part numbers and compare them, its the suffix letters that make the difference http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_odkw=corrado+abs&_sop=10&LH_ItemCondition=4&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.Xcorrado+abs+light&_nkw=corrado+abs+light&_sacat=0
  14. If you unplug the sensor on the suspect corner do you get the same code or a different code? When it says right front, does it mean sat in the car looking at the screen or stood in front of the car looking at the engine bay?
  15. And you just know as soon as you've bought one without the plaque another one with it will be for sale the following week, it happened to me 30 mins after agreeing to buy Mr Lobitos RCs I found Comp THs on another site so I ended up buying both.
  16. Love the pic through the trees, it should be submitted for the 2015 calendar
  17. Me too :) Make him an offer, he can only say no?
  18. Do you suspect the chains have jumped the sprockets?
  19. I'd take it posted? No problem, GLWS
