3rd Q? (computer messed up, sozz) Can't seem to find any cheap replacements apart from bosal but only for the 16v hence Q2, anyone know if they are they still available?? Trying to stay away from "performance" exhausts cheers for any advise

Any advice would be nice, my standard exhaust is now blowing! 1st Q?.Is the exhaust now obsolete from stealers?? Y or N? (Heard it was) 2nd Q? Will a 2.0 16v exhaust system work with a VR6?? (I know it Would fit but are the internals the same??) 3rd Q?

The switch in the rad was changed, as a new rad was fitted when the head was off. Never got round to changing the 3 thermo sensors, as not long after it was back on the road the 96 VR was wrote off. At present I haven't changed anything on the Storm. Can anyone clarify exactly what a Corrado VR6 gauge should do?? Is it the same as all my golf VR's I had, when those engines were fully warmed up the needle sat in the middle and never moved regardless if it was sat in traffic, at 30mph, at100mph etc etc.......

Its currently sitting on a a space saver on the front n/s and has a broken spring on the o/s so measuring aint much use just yet. I was a just after a rough idea b4 putting it all back together, then after i get the wheels on I can do some fine tweaking. Cheers

Just a quickie!! If I set my coilovers to -30mm at the front (thats low enough for me),what adjustment is recommended to get the VR riding level?? -40mm?? -50mm?? or just the same -30?? Certainly dont want it to look like its lower at the back. It'll be running 7.5x16 rims with 195/45/16 tyres if that makes any difference. Any suggestions would be nice. Ta much

So its not just me then.:bonk: Had a '96 VR with the same problem. Gauge always indicating running low temperature but with oil temp ok. Was like it for years and was still the same after a top end rebuild after the head gasket went. All cooling parts replaced at same time. Now running a 95 VR Storm and its doing the same!! Both cars fans were kicking in fine to cool 'em in traffic, after the gauge went up to 95*c. Ive also ran 3 Golf VR6s and the gauges in these went up to 90*c then never moved all day! Puzzling.

I live up on the North York moors, my local garage are more used to working on 1980's Land Rovers! Ok its not that bad but it looks like Im gunna have to travel. Already building up a pile of parts, got the Mk4 callipers and hoses and so on, got new bushes mountings etc.... Just deciding what suspension kit to go for. Thanks for the advice

Cheers for the response guys. It would be so much easier if I didn't live out in the sticks!!

Can anyone help. Im just about to spend some major money om my rado (full suspension overhaul, new water pump, oil leak to fix, F and R brakes to replace and so on £££'s :pale:) and was wondering where's the best place to take it. Can anyone comment on the mentioned specialists or recommend anyone else on the M62 corridor??? Cheers

Evening all, new to the site but not rado ownership. Just bought a cheap Storm to replace my lovely '96 satin silver vr6, which has now finally come to its end following an early morning 110mph "HeadOn" with a f**king Deer. It was a mess!!, every front panel destroyed, screen smashed, roof dented. Gutted... Anyhoo, this cheapy storm is in need of some loving and money, so I'll be on here posting for your help and advice. Ta much
