I don’t I’m afraid unless I try to crawl underneath! I’m really pleased with it though as it still sounds original and if anything, goes better than ever!

Just coming back to say that (on a friend’s recommendation) I went to Infinity Exhausts near Bristol. They make you a custom stainless steel exhaust. In my case I just asked for as close as possible to original. At £450 fitted, I thought it was a bargain and would really recommend them to anyone in the South West. https://www.infinity-exhausts.co.uk

Thanks Matt, I’ll go down the same route as you as I definitely don’t want the non-res option.
-
Thanks all very much for your help. I think I’ll go for the popular and not too expensive Mitek as the local mechanic gives it the nod of approval too!
-
Thanks Matt. Is it correct that the same Jetex system fits all Corrado models? My husband seems to think that my VR6 would need a different one to an 8v for example.

Thanks Chris, that looks good!

Hi all, I hope I'm doing the right thing in the right place by starting a new topic! I'm just having my 1995 VR6 undersealed/dinitrol treated and they've picked up (which should have been noted on the MOT but wasn't!) that the exhaust system is very rusty and definitely on it's last legs. Can someone point me in the right direction of getting a good (as standard as possible - no big boy exhausts for me!) system? I found this https://www.heritagepartscentre.com/uk/wc253j26h7tr-jetex-stainless-steel-exhaust-system-non-resonated.html but it says it fits all Corrados. Is that really correct that the same exhaust fits all models? Sorry if I seem a bit dim! Or is there something better I can buy for it? I'm keen to keep it as original as possible. I’m near Bristol but happy to travel within an hour or so if needed.

Thanks again! Will try A/C engineering in Chertsey as they came up in a search from above and I’m in London (albeit the other side). I know it won’t be cheap but I’m planning on keeping the car indefinitely so might be worth the investment.
-
Thanks so much!

Hi all, not sure if I’m posting in the right bit of the forum… Has anyone had air conditioning retrofitted to their Corrado? If so, was it successful and how much did it cost? After melting in my VR6 in a 33 degree traffic jam today, I’m seriously considering it if it’s feasible.
-
Yeah there's certainly some cowboys out there unfortunately!
-
Ah but they’ve been squealing since both the discs and pads were brand new so I don’t think that’s the cause. It’s my 4th Corrado over the last 30 years and this has never happened before hence thinking it’s whatever make has been fitted is the cause.
-
Hi all, I had my front discs and all pads replaced a couple of years ago on my VR6 (with apparently good quality parts) but I have a terrible and embarrassing squeak every time I hit the brakes from the front (driver’s side I think). Am happy to change them again if necessary. Can someone point me in the best direction for the best parts? I thought it might be lack of use for quite a long time but have been driving it most days for the last few months.

Apart from being delighted at how lovely the people on this forum are, I have just realised I posted this in the wrong part of the forum. Apologies to the admin.

Oh Cressa you're an absolute star! I've been worrying about it all night! Message me how much you'd like for it. Thank you so much!
