  1. its been a while from i done mine - i will have a look but it may be tomorrow at the earliest From what i remember at tdc the distributor arm should point at spark plug 1? At least your not feeling any resistance rotating by hand The engine has to be run up to temperature before any timing adjustments via the distributor
  2. i will have a look tomorrow and let you know
  3. Great looking car Keyo My neice has just purchased a 17 tdi sline and i was surprised how good the finish is in these audis She had gone to buy a 4 series bmw but was disappointed by the interior and was taken by the audis interior finish. best of luck with it
  4. Thanks for the replies I will flush the system with a rad flush, increase the coolant content and see how it goes
  5. Yep flushed out every orifice - run until its clear
  6. despite my best efforts at flushing the coolant system on my g60 i still end up with this I have used vw coolant - cant remember the type its the purple one am i just not using enough coolant - roughly a 1/3 to water Car has had a new genuine radiator. valeo water pump etc - cant be doing these any good

    👍Excellent well done and good to see a corrado get an award at a vw event
  12. Seen quite a few of his videos on youtube - repair costs are scary - on those type of cars Audi RS, BMW M and Merc AMG buying second hand is a gamble I wonder what it would be like to deal with an aftermarket warranty company for something serious as similar to above Watch car wizard - hates BMW (V8) - Takes hours of work to get to source of leaks and to find its a seal that costs a few dollars to make and everything is plastic
  13. Wow that is serious money that car must be as new

    Very nice looking piece of kit - keep us updated on the fitting and what difference it makes
  15. That looks a good car chris - congrats on the purchase and love a G60
  16. I have come across these they are grey and from an early 16v i believe there is no holes but need a good clean cost of postage only - i only want the seat foams
  17. Who is steven harper??
  18. To gauge the future of classic cars is like looking into a crystal ball to be honest i wish i knew what the future will bring as for the corrado if i was looking at a car that needed a lot of body parts and trim i think i would pass on it just for the fact that new parts are becoming unobtainable and second hand parts prices are a joke for a lot of parts that are fit only for the bin. I have one weakness in that i buy cars (saveable) to stop them from going to breakers Today i just enjoy driving / maintaining and repairing my cars - i dont do it to make money and as for the future who knows!!
