Yeah, there doesn’t look to be owt special with them for sure. I just needed one today as I want to take her for a run to the coast this afternoon while the weather is good. Otherwise I’d have been on eBay. I’ll probably do a google for all the relays to keep a spare in the cupboard so I don’t end up in a rush next time [emoji2] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yeah, that’s quite probable re the revised part number. Got one from GSF which should be in at 12, Halfords had naff all other than bog standard relays. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thanks mate. Called VW, not in stock and part is listed as no longer available. Said VW Heritage do them. Seems odd that something as simple as that isn’t used on loads of cars. I’ll give Halfords a go. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Quick question for the extremely knowledgable folk out there, is there anything special about the indicator/hazard light flasher relay in the Corrado? Mine has just gone intermittent, flashing once or twice and then stopping, and them will go completely awol got 20 minutes and them do the odd flash again. Going to call VW in the morning, but on the off chance they don’t carry stock for such a standard item, I was going to swing by Halfords instead. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

That’s normally connected to where that red filter is in the pic, so just crank case gasses getting pulled in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

A valver spotted on the Isle of Wight a few weeks back. I did wait for the owner to return and had a quick chat with her. A member on here? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Nice collection, I used to have a mk2 Escort the same colour as your one [emoji41] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Mine had been changed to grey leather by the previous owner (with the wrong early type door cards). I’ve since switched to late leather door cards. Will have to check out the sticker to see what the original was (I suspect black cloth). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

if money was no question which car would be top of your list. ?

I think it would have to be a De Tomaso Pantera for me if it was a classic era car. If going a bit more modern, I’ve an itch to scratch with a Dodge Viper (SR II) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro -
I found the same. After I fitted the the 288’s and replaced the front to rear brake pipes. Was totally disappointed with the feel, but they seemed to dial themselves in eventually. They are brilliant now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Big shout out to Martin. Centre cap arrived and fitted to the car. Thanks man, hugely appreciated [emoji106][emoji41] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Didn’t do anything specific other than take her for her MOT. Passed with no issues [emoji41] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thanks for the link. I’ve no idea why that didn’t come up in my searches before, it does now. Very weird as I’m normally pretty good at finding stuff. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Wow, thanks mate, much appreciated. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thanks for that, much appreciated. I’d searched eBay and didn’t see any, and still can’t find one..... lol. I’ll keep the other place in mind. I’ve got a cunning plan to try and save the original, just waiting for the swimming noodle to arrive. The foam should be just right to fix to the back of the cap and fit nice and tight in the centre bore of the wheel. If that fails, than I’ll revisit getting a replacement.

Had new tyres fitted yesterday, the tyre shop broke one of the caps. Anyone got one they would sell? Cheers Rick Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

That would be awesome if you can. I know I can swap out the whole sunroof from other vags, but I’d sooner have the original working again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Sounds good [emoji41]. Can you remanufacture the piece from the sunroof mech that breaks? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

After losing one of the wind deflectors last year, finally got round to putting a new set on yesterday. Was great being able to have window cracked open without the rain off the roof coming pouring in each time I took a corner [emoji3] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

What do you use to troubleshoot/repair your Corrado?

I’ve got the bentleys manual, and a few bits in the Lindsay porter manual Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro -
No mate, no thoughts of selling. I love the look of them on the car too much. Good to know if selling the car later though, change the wheels first and sell them separately. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Crikey. I like mine, but not that much [emoji33] Makes me glad I only paid just over a tenth of that for them [emoji16] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

A dark blue Rado on A329 in Reading town centre about 16:15 on Friday. Only saw it last second, so not sure on flavour. Looked like possibly running on Sebring alloys. Anyone here? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Must be a good time to be out in the Rado at the moment. Two lots today, filling up with petrol and a guy got out the passenger side of a 4x4 at another pump, and had a good wander around the car having a look (I was inside paying). Once I’d paid and was heading back out, a guy got out of a golf gti and passed comment, “nice, very very nice” [emoji41] All I need now is to spot another Rado out and about. Not seen another for an absolute age. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
