  1. First point of call is water pump, as i have said to many others the corrado should have a pump with metal impellers, this often gets replaced by accident for one with plastic impellers these snap off and u end up with a spinning disk rather than a pump. Assuming your pump is fine then IMO nothing to worry about, its said most classics pre-1990's run better a little hotter, as long as it doesn't go above 110 and the temperatures it does reach/drop to are consistent then its nothing to be concerned about (also fans kick in when they should). just how the engine runs. Also bare in mind your gauge probably isn't the most accurate, i had an electrical reading done and when my clock says 108 its actually at 104/5 so its nothing to concerning. i spent months trying to figure out why mine went up and down but in the end just accepted its just the engines characteristics. Drove it to the coast and back few months back (during heat wave), sat in traffic for hours with engine running and not a hiccup. Peace MUST ADD!!! I assumed all fans working fine... Get them sorted first! (easy way to test) Start the car and stand next to it till it reaches temp. see if they come on. They should also be coming on after you turn your engine off (if you drive it as you should :bonk:)
  2. These are a steal man!!!!! If there still up in a week ill have them off you straight away!!!!!!!! For anyone who doesn't know, KW bought out Weitech so these are the KW V1's but painted green instead of purple. Full stainless steel body nylon spigots etc etc... LEWVW May i recommend taking 30 mins cleaning them and re-listing them for £400. ha. My friend and i cleaned up some he has on his S8 for 3 and a bit years and they looked like new. Good luck with the sale
  3. How many would i need to have a confirmed interest in to do this? we talking 100's? 1000's?

  7. Thanks chaps ill get on it if i cant source some locally before end of month! Which VW man? as my local ones dont have any and cant track any I know i know... but it seems the only way i can get help from people on here is to offer free bacon, until i posted "free bacon" in the tittle no1 gave a ****, yet the second i put it in the tittle look at all the response i have. When it stops working ill stop doing it!
  8. Think im going to have to as everyone on here seems to keep PM'ing me saying they have some then selling them to some other C*nt 5 minutes later. Still after some though meanwhile (until i have £160 spare).
  9. And yes i do see the one on ebay for £80 but i want to avoid paying £80 for one if possible
  10. I know i always go one, but the KW Variant 2 kit is second to none if you have the money to spare, if not the variant 1s are also awesome
  11. so what just email them and they'll send me one?
  12. how about cutting the vw badge into the side of your head aswell, and maybe fitting the bumper to the front window and the front window to the inlet manifold... Different isnt always a good thing, most the time its just retarded.
  13. Jon let me know what they say please
  14. Yes i noticed that, but then i saw the wheels he was offering and i thought u may of say that just being polite, haha
  15. ****, a couple of weeks ago i checked and they had them in stock. Im also after one of these if someones knows where i can get a new part. Jon_vr6 the guy in Chinnor who breaks Corrados will have the peice, put the problem is if u get another second hand bit it will just happen again!
