would the brake position sensors between the 16v,8v and vr6's be interchangeable? say if you had a vr6 and your mate had 16v for scrap could I take the sensor from their car? also is there a knack to removing the sensor so I don't brake it?

hmm was considering sensor problem but wouldn't that flash up on the abs warning light? I have been told to check the ABS ring?

weird issue with the breakes, or at least just the left hand side. the discs and pads were new in June, the ABS works fine, the fualt light comes on and clears as it should but I think there is something wrong somewhere. It seems as if my car is locking up on one side, yes should not do it with abs but there is juddering in the pedal and clicking so ABS is working. This happens intermittently and has happend at really slow speeds of 10 mph. I have heard a loud groan from the left hand side of the car afterwarsds when slowing the car but this doesn't always happen either. It seems to do this once per trip and then its fine, I have had new fluid in the system and has been flushed a few times due to clutch problems. anyone have any idea or heard of this thing before? It doesn't seem to be losing fluid, the ABS is working, the brakes don't feel spongey, it just seems to lock up on the left front wheel sometimes, wet and dry conditions.

Hi I had a noise coming from my VR6 when I statrted it up and when cold I was advised that it was the top bearing for the serpentine belt so I changed the bearing this weekend, however the noise I have to admit has quietened down and is less streesed however I can still hear a noise I think it is the bearing or pulley for the water pump as when we spun that one when changing the belt over it was noise and sounded wobbly? anybody had this or heard of this or basicly know about changing it? help.

hmm would make sense, I have the original wheels on but the bolts could possibly be different, I managed to fix the brake problem, the fuse had gone (no16), however I am ever dubious as to why it blew.

hi, the new problems I face are a weird stone like clicking noise coming I believ from the front drivers wheel. I thought it was a stonein the tyre at first but it has been like this for around 2 months now, NO STONE ANYWHERE. it is literally what it sounds like. any ideas I did read about a clicking coming from the inner CV joint, could be that but not sure how louder clicking we are talking, ive heard what CV joints have sounded like when they are knackered before and it doesnt sound the same. 2. the little dash pocket on the passenger side under the glover box is completely soaked through.. anybody else had the same problem?

Well have fixed the bulb problem, the fuse No. 16 had blown so I have replaced that and the lightis back, it is going off so ABs would appear fault free. As far as I can tell the ABS is working fine, so the fuse must have blown, put the ABS out so it didnt know what it was doing, hence the juddering of it trying to work. hopefully all is good. however I think the spoiler must have made the fuse blow, it works when it wants to and hasnt for a bout a month now - probably needs taking apart and cleaning again and lubing up properly, or the motor could have actually gone this time. Either way, ABS to be working, havent had to break tremendously hard though since yesterday.Will try it out on way home.

yeh would appear to have lasted a week also but ABS light if actually off, wont come on at all now! surely the light should come on and stay on.

ok well i shall see what happens, can only break, as i got told a when i bought the car, its a corrado it will need fixing every week. before i spray it, where is it??? :lol:

I wouldnt have thought so, the discs were new in Jan, along with the brakes, rear calipers are new but the front ones arent. the car pulls to the left a lot, so i think the tracking is out, however i did have a suggestion of a bush or something being worn.

Oh dear. Take it makes that stupid sound then? Is this going to cost me something ridiculous? :(

Hi, where abouts can you hear the whirring from? i have a whirr in mine and the brakes are playing up, just wondered if same problem or completely unrelated whirr, not to sure where the abs pump is?

also.. to my many queries. have noticed that when the car is cold there is an incredibly annoying whirr which increases in pitch with the revs. I dont think it can be heard outside, can hear it really well in the car. sounds a bit like the high pitch of when a washing machine is going, really weird. I dont think it happens when the car has been driven for a while, anybody know what this is? i have read on here about a whirr coming from the aux pump, i changed mine recently cos it sounded terrible, was really loud and then changed to a still second hand one. I dnt think its related to the water pump though.
