Browsing u tube and there is an article that there may be a new corrado for 2026 Do not know if it just a spoof but looking at the images it looks amazing

My 92 G60 has recently seen a drop off in performance so decided to do a bit of an inspection First i done a compression test and was quite surprised by the readings - all between 155 - 160 psi all within limits When i had the head off previously there were rings starting to appear at the top of the bores At times when i start it at times there is a ticking noise which disappears when the engine reaches around 60oC I have put new hydraulic cam followers in (INA) during a head rebuild I do not know if this is pinking as i not familiar with the issue - Knock sensor? Any way i have had an issue with a minor coolant leak around the water pump so decided to see where it is coming from Also decided to replace the belt on the charger although virtually no real mileage its been around 6 years from i rebuilt the charger Took of the silencer and found it full of sludge (grey in colour) If it was oil would it be this colour ? Is my charger done? or need another rebuild? I have no doubt the intercooler will be full of this mess too Opinions please 9 9

That is amazing work and always nice to see another G60 My car is due some engine work - i have noticed a serious drop off in performance Agree with you with regards to the intercooler set up - That is a great set up you have done there without having an ugly intercooler hacked into the bumper

Good to see you back Keyo Where on earth did you find that - that is a true unicorn can only be a handful of those ever built

Am i reading this correctly the supplier is making 10 but only 9 has had the deposit paid
Could i possibly have the 10th one if the original buyer does not pay the deposit
Thanks

Always good to see more G60's - Did you do the G60 16v or purchase it already done?

I got one of these kits from dave recently - although i have not fitted it yet as my car has been put away for winter It looks a well engineered modification to the original mechanism And for the money well worth it

Still usually look in everyday - but corrado quiet at the moment Just got my car motd again with less than 150miles from the previous year -
From what i remember these parts fit either side of the rear bench base just below the carpets As above they are sound deadening foams If you look at etka / vagcat it will give you an idea of where they go

The second picture is part of the rear seat sound absorber The first i can not see the part number

I will have 2 pairs and one with the circlips please just to add my ever growing list of spares Thanks

Thanks for the reply - to be honest its for a car that i dont know if its worth saving (almost 200k) - just want something to get it moving again Fitted a battery only to hear a series of clicks Bloody hell there is some amount of crap on ebay I think ridex is auto docs own brand ?? - seems to be everywhere on its site

I must admit i did not know about about that link to the car stereo via that wire The corrado was tech advanced in its day !!!
