Foggystorm 0 Posted August 11, 2006 I will hopefully be the proud owner of a polished inlet manifold for my VR6 in the next hour or so (as long as no-one out bids me with silly money) and just wondered if anyone knew how easy it was to fit/replace this?

steve @ 0 Posted August 11, 2006 Just need a new throttle body and upper inlet manifold gasket. Easy to replace nothing to worry about. Have you made sure its a corrado manifold as the golf/vento etc use a smaller manifold Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Foggystorm 0 Posted August 11, 2006 £120, I was going to do it to my own but this way the C isnt off the road too long, plus it would have taken me bloody hours to get mine that shiny as it is minging :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Foggystorm 0 Posted August 12, 2006 steve @ - Are you sure the golf and corradol VR6 inlet manifolds are different, as the bloke I bought it off thinks they are both the same? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigpants baby 0 Posted August 12, 2006 early golf vr6 with dizzys are the same as corrado vr6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foggystorm 0 Posted August 12, 2006 it was a coil pack one from a 97 golf VR6. The guy is going to give me a refund as I have checked the underneath and it is completley different Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
