Ok cool that is helpfull, I guess I am gonna have to pester you guys when I have a problem fixing it then. (sorry in advance).

Well impressed with this forum everyone has been really helpfull, keep up the good work guys and thanks for the help.

The heat shield I am talking about is just before the manifold joins the next pipe. Not 100% as I have never taken a corrado apart before yesturday.

Could be better than nothing I will have to go and have a look.

> Heat shield rattles can be cured with a BIG jubilee clip being put over it to clamp it to the downpipe... (works on mine!)

Could you give me a quick description of where this goes and what sort of size I am after. I have to many things to do at the moment to spend time plying around.

Thanks in advance

It does seem like a good forum I have been a member of clubcalibra for a couple of years and they are a great bunch and this seems very similar. I really like the site design here to.

Anyway I have just done some searchig and I have founnd afriend that can get me the bently manual on cd for a tenner so that might be the way to go.

Cheers for all the advice.

Yeah so true, would be alright if I hadn't turned into the resident mechanic out of my mates. Had to service my mates 2l 16v, I have had to re-buikd my mates mk1 golf g g60. Mabey i should but a VW then this could atleast prove usefull for me.

I reccon the problem with his car is the ISV or the 5th Injector, be nice to have a manual to know what I was taking off.

Nice one I hope so I am gettin fed up trying to work out things on his car I have if enoug trouble keeping my car runing well let alone working out what his is up to.

Hi guys,

I don't have a corrado, (sorry) I drive a calibra and am in the process of buying a rx-7, anyway my best mate has a L reg 2l 16v which I have spent the day fixing as his mechanical knowlege is somewhat lacking.

Anyway, as my friends knowlege is somwhat lacking and he has no internet access I though I would have a little look see.

I have done a quick search and can't find the answers to these questions, sorry if they are there and everone has asked already.

Can you get a manual?

Is there one on the net?

Any idea what stops it idiling properly, Just for peace of mind I have changed the oil/air filter/plugs/coolant/Brake Fluid, and checked trackig and tyre pressure.

Also there appears to be a heat shield on the exaust manifold that is lose and causes an annoying rattle are there any solutions to this.

Cheers in advance

Alan
