20vtvw 0 Posted October 20, 2014 Good news! I had to move the corrado down the drive to get my winter car up to the flat part for new engine mounts to be fitted ,but before I started the rado I thought I would check to make sure I hadn't left any tools on the engine and whilst looking I found a massive air leak! When I changed it to obd2 I had to split part of the servo hose ,,guess what forgot to re connect! All sorted now ,starts first turn idles perfectly and goes like a scalded cat,,,couldn't be happier, So there's no reason it won't be on the road early next year chris,,....

20vtvw 0 Posted October 21, 2014 Thanks for the comments ,I will do a video of it once I've sorted the exhaust ,can't really compare it to the 24v as I've only been up and down the street in it but that's all I needed to get the love back for it!
