Audi seem to be poorest for classic car parts with VW slightly better but way behind Porsche , Mercedes and BMW

looks a great car Never seen or was aware of those wheels

And vendor says it will need a timing belt!! The vendor really knows a vr6

Great work but that garage WOW

Even better now free postage and 15% discount

Thanks Fendervg I have ordered the second one - yellow items and see what turns up On ebay thousands of items are listed and to be honest i just ordered one of the cheaper items as i only need to replace a couple of connectors Thanks again

I am currently trying to repair a butchered wiring loom and need to remove terminals from conn blocks I bought a cheap key set off ebay and after approx 2 hrs i managed to remove 1 terminal Is there anything out there better?

Great looking car - best of luck with it Is it a gen1 or gen 2 ? cant remember the date Great that it is a manual - to me all porsche should be manual I am surprised you did not keep your reg - it can all be done on line quickly. Again best of luck with it

Hope it helps I have a G60 myself and the VAG tech that set my car up was a bit hesitant to undertake the work as it had been something like 15 years from he last worked on them but once he seen the car he started to remember on its set up and quickly had it running a lot better The booklet is real old school when vw sent hard paper copies to all dealerships Yes i have the full booklet an ebay purchase long time ago. Hope you get the car running and if you need any thing from the booklet just ask Gerard

Hello Is this what you need? - its from a vw dealers workshop manual

No problem at all just glad to help just glad to help keep these cars on the road I will post it at the weekend Gerard

Free of charge Hasan - My good deed for the week - send me your details

If it is the correct one PM me your address and i will cut it out and post it to you THanks Gerard

Sorry for the delay in replying is this the connector you require

Can you post a picture of what you want

To be honest i have been in a state of disbelief all day and i actually feel like loading it in my van driving to germany and throwing it over the counter at someone purchasing it via email i thought was better due to language barrier

I have several cars all in various states of repair one being a late mk2 16v that i bought stripped with all the parts boxed The car a previous crap repair to the sill on the passenger side - full of filler with rust below Anyway i started repairing it but decided to take a break from it but have recently started again but looking at my previous repairs i was unhappy with the welding - strong enough but a bit ugly to be honest and i got a bit carried away with a sanding disc and managed to burn through the metal So i decided to look for rear quarter panel to take the bottom 6 inches or so and repair again I wanted a genuine panel this time as the previous one was not great so after a time i found one listed by supplier in germany - made contact asked to confirm the panel was genuine vw to which they confirmed and that it was new - great i thought asked to confirm a cost inc postage to belfast - i ended up paying 650 euros and paid by bank transfer About 14 days passed and it arrived and my heart sunk once i opened the packing - to be honest i was expecting a few dents etc but what was in the packing was just absolute JUNK It looks as if it has been removed from a car slapped with some black paint the inside looks as if its painted with under body sealant It even carries an aftermarket label I have sent an email to the seller demanding a refund but as of today no reply i fear the worst see pictures below - it has to be seen in person to see how bad it is

That is some list there What i admire about both porsche and mercedres and to a certain extent bmw is that long after their cars have gone out of production you can still buy many parts especially body from the dealers at mainly acceptable costs which shows they have a great deal of pride in their cars - something VW and especially Audi now fail to do - must be the accountants I do have a soft spot for Audi myself as my father drove them for many years and never had any problems but the prices on audi tradition scare me so i would only buy one already done. I can see where you are coming from in buying a car that someone else has completed What ever you choose to purchase i am sure it will be a good one I cant help but think that listening to the news yesterday a lot more cars are going to come on to the market where some poor sod will be parting with their pride and joy Best of luck with your hunt and tease us with your potential purchases

Cant believe it All that effort for perhaps the best vr6 corrado around. I hope you get what you want for it and who ever buys it wont be disappointed Always enjoyed your posts and great knowledge of everything corrado Sad day hope you keep looking in and let us know what you buy

My car came originally through R Robinson & Co Norwich - I believe still trading today First registered to an employee of Norwich Health authority Is it just me but do a lot of corrados have kept their paperwork where i find most mk2 golf gti owners have not!!

Great looking car 👍

Thanks Cressa Having read your post i can recall the tech that set my timing cursing like hell as the engine has to be up to temperature he was having to adjust the dizzy

sorry please forgive me as it has been a long time since i set mine up Before i removed mine i marked the distributor body to the block with tipex From what i remember i set up the crank and camshaft to timing marks but the oil pump drive which is hidden behind the cambelt cover i had to remove the cover slacken the timing belt and move it several teeth until the rotor arm pointed at plug 1 It started and ran ok but it did require minor adjustments carried out by a VAG tech Hopefully someone else on here can confirm / correct this

Looks great - cars and fashion of the 80's & 90's - i have visions of shell suits and mullets

Sorry for the delay on this but attached is a picture of the distributor position with the crank pulley at tdc
