You can always go for the Bosch Dealer and buy a fuel pump for your Corrado. 8) They have early and late fuel pumps available. Well i found them a lot cheaper at Bosch here in Portugal. :) Then i went to VW and bought the new sender. If your car has one only In-Tank fuel pump, this will be the correct Bosch Dealer Part-Number: F 000 TE0 111 Complete with all hoses and clips in a box. :D

Any hints and tips for fitting a Golf G60 intercooler?
kongo127 replied to Tattie's topic in Engine Bay
I have been watching this topic as i got my G60 IC this week! I am planning to go for the conversion next week. I still don´t have the long bolt for the U-Bend, i believe it´s M8x90. I don´t have that small bar for the U-Bend... Do i really need it? :wink: How many hoses do i need? So far i have the U-Bend and the next hose that connects to the IC. I wonder how the IC output pipe connects to the COPot hose... Do i need a new COPot hose aswell? I´m a bit confused as you can see... :oops: -
I call mine AVIAO (Portuguese) which means AIRPLANE in English. It has flaps and everything... (rear spoiler) LOL :lol:

Have you inspected those micro-switches on the throttle body, and their connector? Give them a good WD40 clean... 8) Well... I would do that! :? If it doesn´t work, i will start to suspect on the lambda probe. Keep posting! :)
-
Del G60, Have you tried GATES? They offer many sizes for air-ducting alu hoses IIRC... :?
-
I believe that your problem is the Lambda Probe (dead). :wink: Disconnecting the G60 battery won´t change anything... You should check all the Lambda harness to the ECU and clean the connectors. If it doesn´t work, get a new probe! Oh... And Vag-Com won´t be a help for you, as it only comunicates with the ABS unit on all G60´s. 8)

sometimes they appear on ebay... 8)

Yeh, i agree with Super... The Knock Sensor is very important under pinking situations. i.e. if you use regular 95RON it´s more suitable to happen!

sounds like a missing earth... well done mate! i´m going for a digital odometer aswell, it´s good to know that it really works! by the way... did you have the gearbox sender, or needed to get one? how much does VW quote for them?
-
I like the 3.5 bar fuel pressure regulator aswell! :-P

That looks familiar to me mate... Try this topic! Well i got sorted! :D http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic. ... highlight=

Nice thought... :roll:

I found this auction very attractive on ebay. :D http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... gory=33719 What do you guys think? :?

I´m looking forward to those Henny! :D

Yes there is. You may replace your amplifier which is located in the back side of the radio. I don´t remember it´s reference at the moment, i´m going to find out (TDA****). Otherwise you´ll see it when you open the radio. Be carufull with the soldering iron, not to damage any part of the PCB.

mark_ingle, According to my experience in Sony Technical department... :mrgreen: That would be your amplifier (built in) putting some high current in the output. :wink: I have replaced lots of them with that problem... :? So be carufull not to damage your speakers!

I have some 10cm quality JBL speakers in the dash with crossovers What an improvement! :D It gives a very clean and cristal sound. 8)

Be sure to top the fuild reservoir! I mean to the top! :!: Because there is a wall inside the reservoir for the clutch. You need to add more oil than the max. mark! Otherwise you´ll be bleeding only air! :lol: After the job is complete remove the excess oil in the reservoir. 8) I had this issue some weeks ago! :oops: We are always learning! :D
-
I forgot to say... It´s on German ebay! Have a look! :D http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie ... 71625&rd=1

ABT VR6's update! new paint new tires new engine polishing
kongo127 replied to ABT VR6's topic in Members Gallery
Welcome mate! :D -
What car are you talking about? Anyway, i´m quite sure it´s not ECU involved. Maybe it´s only your ISV leaky or even the idle bolt on the back of the throttle body (if it´s like my G60). If the batery voltage drops below 12.5v the ECU will enter in safe mode (fueling up your engine by 25%) just to be sure it won´t run lean.
