  1. Is there a post on this forum that cover this topic? or can anyone help?
  2. do you know where the cheapest place is to get these CAM'S?
  3. i am looking to do a top end re-build on my 2.9 VR6 CR6 Corrado. i need to know what is the best CAM i can get for the right price and from which supplier. is this subject covered else where? Please Help
  4. i have just been quoted by Awesome GTI £1300 + VAT for the following engine work: .Timing chains .Full top end re-build is this worth it?
  5. I HAD THESE REPLACED AND CHECKED OUT
  6. Could this problem be my Gearbox Diff on its way out on my VR6 Corrado. Last month I was driving my car and I noticed a slight wobble, I though this was the road surface. As the weeks have gone by the wobble and knocking noise has got worse, to the point where you can feel the knocking/wobbling in the car. The car is at the garage at the moment and they have checked my wheel bearings and all other things front and back of car and everything is fine, they said my diff in the gearbox is very noisy. Could this be my above problem?
  7. Where can I get a re-conditioned gearbox from for my 2.9 Corrado VR6? And how much am I looking at
  8. If the Relay and Fuse Board for my radiator fan on my C VR6 was Kaputt would it cause my fan not to work properly. i.e, your radiator fan comes on a 90-92 dgress “speed 1”, 100-103 degrees “speed 2” and 120 degrees “speed 3”. My radiator fan only comes on at 100-103 degrees “speed 2” and it only blows really slowly and my car seems to running round in the high 90’s low 100’s. When I first got the car and up until 2 months ago my radiator fan used to come on at 90-92 degrees. If the relay and fuse board was Kaputt would it cause this to happen.
  9. what do you meen by check the 'screw down' fuse? is that the one above the gearbox in the engine bay? i have replaced Speeds 1 and 2 - two way rad fan switch, bottom of the radiator. the switch in the bottom of the radiator! it screw in doesnt it? and it has three pins on it yep? if so i have replaced that one! thanks for your help
  10. Stage 1 on my cooling fan is not working, i have been told stage 1 of the fan is at 90-92 degrees "water temp". this was working properly 2 months ago and now my engine is over-heating. i have replaced with genuine new VW parts: Radiator Fan Water housing Thermostat Coolant Two stage fan sensor "bottom of rad" stage 2 works fine 100-103 degrees it comes on. are there any fuse relays that make this work?
