    How much would that cost??

    16v MPG

    I take it you dont use the load pedal much? Dont think my MFA works properly anyway, never seen it above 28. But i do get a lot less miles than you. I dont do much driving, but when I do its usually quite fast so thats probably the reason.
  3. Does the active rear spoiler actually do anything or was it just a sales gimic? I say this cause if its been raining and there is water on the spoiler, even when it lifts up the water doesnt exactly get blown off. Does it only being to give downforce at high speeds?

    16v MPG

    Any of you with a 2.0l 16v C, how many miles do you get out of a full tank?

    Misfire in 1st

    When driving my 16v, occasionally, but getting more regularly, when in 1st gear only, it will feel like its misfiring. When i change into 2nd it goes away! Has anyone else had this problem, what would be causing it?

    Best suspension?

    Think thats the desicion then. Is there only one type of koni top adjustables?

    Best suspension?

    I've already got Eibach springs on the car, another alternative is to just get uprated dampers all round. Would the adjustable Koni's and these be a good combo. Just dont know if i can afford £600 plus fitting.

    Best suspension?

    I take it that the budget FK's (AK coilover) aren't upto much then? These are £359, Highsport £475, Konig £635 Does the extra money really pay off? Its not a track car or anything. Running 205/40/17's will this make a difference?
  9. Got a 2L 16v and need new suspension. Thought i'd splash out and get a kit. Whats the best kit to get? Want a healthy drop, but i'm quite fond of my teeth, so something with a decent ride quality please. I'm not looking to break the bank too much either.

    Lowering caps?

    Exactly what benifits are there using MK4 bump stops? Comfort or handling? Are all lowering caps for Corrados the same? If not do you know which ones I need for a 2.0L 16V, 94, L Reg?

    Lowering caps?

    Cheers. ARe they perfectly safe to use?
  12. At high revs, I have to wait slightly when changing from 3rd to 4th otherwise it grinds. Is this the syncro going? Is it really expensive to fix?

    Lowering caps?

    When my C was lowered (springs only due to budget), the front sits a bit higher than the back. Is it advisable to use front lowering caps to level it out? Is so what ones? Cheers

    Ecotek???

    Forget it. Just done a seach on here (should have done that first) and they appear to be rubbish. Does the spray work though?

    Ecotek???

    Does anyone have an Ecotek (CB-26P) fitted to their Corrado, or used Ecoteks Power Boost spray? If so, did you notice any improvement? Would you recomend them?

    Roof strips

    Might try that. Sure it'll look better than rubber with gaps in it where its fallen off.
  17. duffer

    Roof strips

    Do you mean take the strips out and cut off the rubber, then fill where the rubber was with sealant?
  18. duffer

    Roof strips

    That has to be one of the most anoying problems with C's. Its not just that the water out of the gutter comes in though the window, but that it goes straight onto the window and mirror switches. Dont know what to do about the strips now. What would be causing the water in drivers footwell?

    Roof strips

    The rubber running along side the plastic strips on my roof are in a bad way. Sections of the rubber has come away and the rest is quite cracked. 1) Will this course my car to leak? 2) How much would it be to replace both sides? I have recently noticed that the driverside footwell is wet, would this be because of the roof? If not whats coursing that? Cheers
  20. Am I going total mad in thinking that I've read something about VW making a New Corrado? :? Would be nice!
  21. Did anyone stick a Corrado Club membership form on my Grey 16V's windscreen a couple of weeks ago in brum? Or has anyone got a black G60 in brum and raced me in my Grey 16V in birmingham on Saturday 17/04/04?
  22. Appart from 'Paul-Corrado16V', whos just got a powerflow system fitted to their C at Moto-tech in Birmingham? Just wondering what u make of yours cause i got one fitted last week.
  23. i have been given written instructions how to make a cold air supply pipe for 16v airbox.......but does anyone have any pics of the finished thing. would be nice to have a visual ref. to work to. cheers.
  24. what about the width? 215 instead of 205?
  25. I've currently got 205/40/17 tyres on my wheels. My dilema is; A. whether to go for 45's to give a slightly smoother ride, but don't know whether its gunna make it look rubbish. B. can you fit 215's on without them rubbing on the arches cus it's been lowered. Forking out for some good tyres and dont want to be pissed off if i get the wrong ones. cheers.
