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

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

see photo below

i will have a look tomorrow and let you know

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

Thanks for the replies I will flush the system with a rad flush, increase the coolant content and see how it goes

Yep flushed out every orifice - run until its clear

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

Love the dog 😀- beats any alarm

As above great pics of a fantastic car Great advice on the locks

Loom arrived today - great piece of kit and Thankyou

Interesting colour - not a fan of cream leather though That mileage wonder how the engine is - vw build quality and good maintenance??

just sent payment - Thanks

👍Excellent well done and good to see a corrado get an award at a vw event

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

great looking car and great scenery too

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

deposit paid - thanks

That looks a good car chris - congrats on the purchase and love a G60

Long gone - sorry
