wormy 0 Posted November 13, 2010 Mine feels stable at 230km/h+... On a safe road ofcourse.. :salute: Infact, alot more stable at 200km/h then most other cars I've driven at 100km/h, including mom's 320i 2000 bimmer with full service history.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Veearrhsix 0 Posted November 13, 2010 Interesting read this thread... I started brick'n it at about 125-130-ish - felt a tad unstable. Could just be just rear wheel balance issue :scratch: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stretch. 0 Posted November 13, 2010 Mine jiggles slightly at 70 - 80 then it feels fine again, just need to get my wheels rebalanced and get my tracking tweaked slightly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pete 0 Posted November 13, 2010 I did a 5 hour drive to Devon and back a few weeks ago in it cruising around the speed limit ;) ands was fine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dr_mat 0 Posted November 13, 2010 So, assuming for the moment that it's not just something as stupid as wheel balancing not being right, you'd want to be checking all the suspension bushes, wheel bearings, shock absorbers, etc etc.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abdul 0 Posted November 13, 2010 Mines fine too, my old valver was alot more stable with high speed cornering etc but it was much stiffer and had better tyres. I'd take a look at your bushes swell if I were u. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duckdown_hoodrat 0 Posted November 13, 2010 mine is dickhead low but doesnt feel too bad at 90ish. never really been faster than that to be fair because my er private road runs out... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slimg60 0 Posted November 13, 2010 Mine feels fine at very high speed, and that was flat out down the runway at work (160mph on the clocks) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dukest 0 Posted November 13, 2010 does your corrado feel safe at speed,mine is fine at low speeds but once it gets to 60 + its a bit scary. hardly much information to go on! what makes it feel scary? is it in a straight line, round corners, over bumps etc etc. but in general, no, it should feel pretty solid.

V-Dubstar 0 Posted November 14, 2010 I don't actually enjoy low speeds so much in mine, it's when I hit 50+ that I feel my 'rado is planted to the floor and less likely for things to go 'BANG' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dr_mat 0 Posted November 14, 2010 The spoiler only really has a noticeable impact above 80 ish. That's why when they released the car in germany the auto-up didn't happen till over 70mph. Which the UK cops used as a license for ticketing people .. hence the speed it raised was lowered for the UK market. Or maybe that's just an apocryphal story? Either way I've seen documentation from VW stating that the aerodynamic design of the car uses the spoiler at speeds over 130kph. People with spoilers that can be lowered at any speed (i.e. broken ones) and "private racetracks" report that the car does feel a lot less stable at very high speeds with the spoiler down. But the effect isn't noticeable at 50.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
