vw rule 19 Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) Hello Alex303, sorry for the late reply I've added you to the above 2nd batch list for the longer linkage as requested. Thank you for your payment for the small linkage, I'll keep it to one side until the 2nd batch of longer linkages are in. Alex I should be able to do you a discount on the postage cost for the longer linkage, as you've already payed for the small linkage postage of £4.30, I'll just ask for an extra £3.00 so the total postage cost will be £7.30 all in. Postage £4.30 PAID (Total is £7.30) = so £3.00 owed. This is for 1st class signed on delivery. Longer linkage is £20.60 plus the £3.00 = total owed is 23.60 I'll ask for the balance payment once the 2nd batch of longer linkages are in. PS, I've sent you a PM of the above. Once again many thanks. Si Edited April 15, 2014 by vw rule Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

leadfoot 0 Posted April 27, 2014 I'm looking for a replacement linkage. excuse the ignorance, but I assume I need the long one as mine is a RHD car (93 2L 16v)? Will you post to Ireland? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vw rule 19 Posted April 28, 2014 I'm looking for a replacement linkage. excuse the ignorance, but I assume I need the long one as mine is a RHD car (93 2L 16v)? Will you post to Ireland? Hello there, there are 2 wiper linkages on our RHD Corrado's, one is the longer linkage which I'm selling, in this group buy thread here. And the other is the short linkage, which I sell on a different thread, Please see the link below for the small linkage: http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?t=84887 It's normally the small linkage that wears out first, I'll have a few in stock from Tuesday 29/04/2014 The small linkage is £15.52 plus postage, postage to Ireland I can do for you, it would have to be 1st or 2nd class standard, as that is the cheapest option for you, cost of this postage would be around £7.85 to £9 max, and delivery takes 3 to 5 working days to get to you. The longer linkage is £20.60 plus postage, this linkage falls under the medium weight section, so it'll be a little more then the small linkage, possibly £9.99 to £16 max Please let me know which linkage you require, it does sound like you may need the small one, as that is the one that wears first. You may have to lift your bonnet and check, which linkage you need. PS, I've also sent you a PM of the above. Hope this helps. Many thanks Si Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vw rule 19 Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) UPDATE: 1ST BATCH is now in The whole order is correct and complete all 8 long linkages are OEM items, it was delivered earlier on today, I've just got back home from work and found the delivered box in my kitchen, like I say I've checked all items and all are correct brand new OEM linkages. I'll send you guys a PM who are in the 1st batch list shortly. Many thanks Si Edited April 28, 2014 by vw rule Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vw rule 19 Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) have people been finding this linkage to be wearing out? I have slop in my wipers and replaced with a new shorter one but didnt check the longer bar. will be checking shortly Hello there, I think it's normally the small linkage that wears out first, as on most Corrado's at 75,000 miles you were able to feel a little free play, and then towards 100,000 miles or above the long linkage can some times feel lose, but like I say it's normally the small one that goes first. Also check that the wiper unit metal frame is bolted tight, and I think there might even be a small rubber bush or one small mount, where the wiper unit frame is bolted down to the bulk head, just lower down from where the wiper motor is. Plus there are two small brass sleeve bushes inside the two wiper spindles, that over time do wear out that can cause free play here and there. Hope this helps.
