According to Tyresafe you're on the money with those figures https://www.tyresafe.org/check-your-pressures/

There's a lad on here who does TPMS surveys and data collation, maybe he will comment? A little survey I found, I got 15 / 20 - I don't ride mopeds and got most of the "What percentage of" wrong due to poor guess work. https://www.tyresafe.org/tyre-safety-test/

Its the air pressure inside the tyre that keeps the tread flat and it's derived from the weight on that axle, under inflation (or adding extra weight) leads to the outside edges of the tyre wearing (as the centre of the tyre buckles away from the road surface), over pressure leads to the centre of the tyre wearing because the becomes more rounded (balloon like). Try to inspect a Uniroyal Rainsport off the rim, they have really flimsy sidewalls.

Dox replied to Dox's topic in Parts for Sale
I thought it was in the wiki but it appears not.... http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?54167-MK4-Polo-Shifter&highlight=mk4+shift+tower I've not read it all but part numbers for the conversion are mentioned. -
You wont find new ones, they're obsolete. Post up some pics of yours

As above from one of my own cars so known good and been on a shelf for 7 years. £100 posted UK See the wiki for the How To for Corrado fitment (or I have a section of MK4 tunnel if you want to weld it in and save yourself £100)

If you buy front wings aren't there enough sections on your existing front wings to repair the rear arches?

The locking rods inside the doors operate micro switches in the vac pods when you turn the key turning on the pump to either lock or unlock dependant on rotation of the key. The easiest place to start is the pumps connector on the boot, check for corrosion in the plugs. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/45-Vw-Corrado-Door-Cental-Locking-Solenoid-Actuator-Motor/222871508490?hash=item33e42d560a:g:Zy4AAOSwTM5Yx84b

From their website, The Lancaster Insurance Pride of Ownership sping final was won by Paul Clappison’s 1972 MGB GT, with Bron Burrell’s ex-World Cup Rally Austin Maxi called ‘Puff’ taking second place while Graham Varley’s 1993 VW Corrado VR6 was third. -

Restored to the point of perfection, I suspect the winner was due to popularity of that model rather than being of a higher standard? -

I wasn’t sure so searched CGTi site yesterday and it seems so. Where did you get the clutch from?
-
If the plate doesn’t sell it goes on the car and the engine gets built with pistons and schrick, sorry
-
So what are you going to try next?
-
Not going in gear with the engine running but all gears selecting with the engine off is a classic clutch issue, the pressure plate is still holding the friction late close enough to the flywheel to rotate the gears inside the gearbox making it impossible to select first gear. What's the set up, o2J MK4 gearbox, G60 solid flywheel and VR6 clutch?

Try clamping the flexi near the gearbox, the pedal should be solid if all air is expelled from the line.
