texyting 0 Posted December 3, 2003 going back two years ago i bought my corrado and in the first month i was hit from behind and pushed to the car infront since then although no panels were changed i have replaced 50% of the car however cos i love the drive and the awsome handling i cannot releave myself of it. This is why i ask if anyone is breaking a corrado (i need apassenger door handle, advice on why my passenger window only works properly when the window switch is disconnected frm the pass side, why the idle shoots up afte the accelerator is released why it bounces up the road until 2000revs, why my does my spoiler work better in th wet please please please can any1 helpme. 2.0l 16V also does any1 have trouble when they put lowering springs on50 front 40 back Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted December 3, 2003 Which engine has your Corrado got in it, and what year is it? Info like this will always help people to help you... 8) Bummer about the accident, that's never good... :? Working second hand door handles are like hens teeth... somewhat rare! :? Try GPC for a new one (about £45 IIRC) or have a search here for "passat handles" The window problem sounds like a dead switch with a short in it. It would be easier to diagnose if we know what year your car is, as there's 2 different types of switch... Bouncing up the road and bad idle sounds like a dodgy/dirty Idle Stabilisation Valve (ISV), or, if it's a G60, a dodgy vaccuum hose, again, do a search here for ISV or Vaccuum hose and there's LOADS of info on them.... 8) If your spoiler is only working in the wet, I'd say it probably need lubricating! It's a fairly easy job to open up the mechanism and grease it all up, and it should make the movement a lot smoother. Welcome to the forum, by the way! :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
