The shape of the magnet is critical. Flat and wide disc N45 magnets will loose their magnetism, sometimes permanently, when heated to above 80*C, the long cylinder shape used in magnetic sump plugs is good for 140*C. N45 magnets are better the N52 in regards to operating temps.

I've kept the 12v rubber gasket, and so used longer cap head screws to suit M6x22 (I think?) with a shake proof washer. They are also easier to install than hex bolts.

I could not find a list anywhere, was going to make one but run out of time for my OBD2 conversion. I've had a look at your pins on the connector picture from your build thread; [ATTACH]80199[/ATTACH] Is there something in pin 27? Other than that, all the right slots are used, but they may not be the right wires.

Jubilee type doesn't produce even pressure all the way round and can create a pinch point, slicing into the hose. Use jubilees with care or buy silicone hose clamps the original Corrado twin eared type can also be used.

I think it's the top cover for the rear suspension strut from the polo. Edit: As Wes said.

There is one on eBay for £15. Part number ending B, not sure if its interchangeable. You need to check the pin configuration on the side. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221585538500%20

As Ian says you may need high octane fuel. Mine runs fine on 95 with the MLD gasket, maybe because it's OBD2? The MLS gasket is fine to use, unless you run very large camshaft duration. Just make sure the matting surfaces are very clean when installing the gasket

Could they be referring to the metal version? It is thiner and raises the compression to 10.5:1

You need the "Robert Bently" manual for the Corrado, it's from the States but its comprehensive.

1.5 litres when it's in the car or 1.9 if you empty it all. I've used fully synth 75W-90 to good effect.

If the above fails, as a last resort chuck some k-seal in. It fixed a weepy head gasket and radiator leak in the misuses Skoda for a couple of years until the rust sent it to the big racetrack in the sky.

Ive got FK highsport but on a MK1 golf and agree with EJ Taylor they are very stiff and but predictable and could drive at the limit all day long on the track. But take it on the road and I was wincing at every pothole.

Golf mk4 anniversary handbrake for the win.

If you can turn it over by hand it's unlikely to be over tensioned especially as you haven't bleed the bolt. Read this; http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?t=3520 Post 11 is how to bleed the bolt. When I did mine the seal inside the bolt had a nick in it, requiring a new bolt.

Installed new Bremi leads today imported from Germany. [ATTACH]80046[/ATTACH] They are supposed to be OEM, but they don't work well with the Corrado HT lead tool. The rubber above the metal shield is a bit too wide for the tool, but it does fit with perseverance. Nice extra insulation where the accelerator cable crosses the leads though. [ATTACH]80045[/ATTACH]

Did you change the tappets with the cams? Have you had the tensioner bolt out? If so did you fill them with oil first? You should bleed and pre-fill the bolt to the correct level before installing. If there is air in the bolt, the chains will be too loose causing them to slap around. If the bolt is too full there will be too much tension on the chains, which makes the engine difficult to turn and also sounds awful. Maybe try running with the MAF but without the BMC. I know it may be possible to run the engine without the MAF but not until the ECU has learnt it's adaptations.

This is also worth a look;

Purple/white is for the MPG readout. It goes straight from the ECU to the clocks. QUOTE=mimjed;1048896] Grey wire for odb - the corrado section of the loom is long gone, was previously a 1.8t and whoever fitted this removed the cable for some reason. where should the input go from the golf loom into the connector block behind the center console? Yes.

Welcome, there is adjustment under the shift boot in the car and also on cable end at the gearbox. I think the cable adjustment you need is bolt c in the car or bolt b under the bonnet, best mark the position before adjustment.
