Hi Guys, Are these trumpets that are rare and was only from Phoenix engineering? Are these them think they have been remade by classics for a fair price ? Looks like the trumpet with the screw is still not available though on the other side. https://www.volkswagen-classic-parts.de/en/hulse-c51beb.html

There OK mate he has been known to be bad at posting, worth going to visit him to be honest if your up that way. Little fuzz is worth a shot on here.

Not rubbing it in as I own both a rado and golf Mk2 but look how many seals they do for a Mk2 golf and cost of the seals. Seems like the Corrado is getting a bad deal from the Heritage world. https://www.vwheritage.com/mk2-golf/mk2-golf-seals-&-rubber

Hi ray, Welcome back to the Corrado. If you really need a set AMOS will have some used ones but will not be cheap as a rare part these days. As Cressa has mentioned we are hoping for them to be remanufactured but that may not happen or could bea year or so away. Might be worth you checking out the car for a couple of weeks and working out what is missing or broken, and then have a drive down there. https://www.amosmotors.co.uk/vw-corrado

Nice one mate.

From what I see the cables only come in 50 cm ? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-Repair-Wire-x5-VW-Audi-Skoda-SEAT-000979133E-New-genuine-part/113928235629?hash=item1a86a6ea6d:g:Rf4AAOSwgZtdqee8 Are they too short shall I just get the crimps instead ? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Audi-VW-Skoda-Seat-Porsche-10-x-Wiring-Crimp-Repair-Terminals-Pins-000979133E/223507235310?hash=item340a11c1ee:g:w~MAAOSw5dlaFmbv

Nice one delfins you have put my shopping list together

So you have to use a T piece to make these work correctly ? Thanks

There is also another VDO part number knocking about with a lower warning pressure I think. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VDO-Engine-Oil-Pressure-Sensor-Sender-145PSI-360-081-030-009C-/162960001382 hmmmm decisions decisions ! Item Name: Engine Oil Pressure Sensor Part Brand: VDO VDO Part Number: 360-081-030-009C Operating voltage: 6-24V Operating temperature: -25 ° C to +100 ° C Measuring range [bar]: 10 Thread size: M10 x 1 tapered, short Warning contact [bar]: 0.5 A+/- 0.15 Dimension [L1]: 19.5 mm Dimension [L2]: 11 mm Type: A Bar [max. 2 sec.]: 30 Remark: with Warning Contact, Common Ground OEM Numbers: 2 230 281 / 09946645 / T11 919 081 /

So thanks to Dox I was thinking about getting this off Heritage with latebay discount of 10%. https://www.vwheritage.com/v360023-vdo-oil-pressure-sender-150psi-2-pin-with-warning-light-m10-x-1-vw-spare

Thanks Dox that looks extremely hopeful and a good quality brand, may I ask do you know the correct psi/bar for the low warning in a VR6. it mentions this on the description. (Warning light operates at a higher psi than a standard switch) Cheers.

Ok thanks Dox this would be the text book method of fitting as in regards to the OE diagram with use of a 1 pin sender. However Im not forking out £144 for a bloomin sender it is outrageous. Have been refunded for the substandard FAE sender. Going down the two pin route. Thanks.

I have spoke to Vince and although the 1 pin is the correct method in regards to the part diagram he always fits them with the 2 pin for ease of fitting. Also I was not paying £144 for a OE 1 pin sensor and after mentioning I had purchased a FAE Vince said junk so I have just got that refunded. So if anyone can help. What I know so far Needs to be 0- 10 bar Thread needs to be M10x1 I want it to be a VDO sender or Vag What I need to find out. Part number for plug that fits in the back of VDO pod, have heard it is the same for a late sunroof plug loom ? What is the low pressures warning(buzzer) PSI on a VR6 as they have different psi ones for these senders. It would be great if someone had a part number that fitted the correct above ??? Thanks in advance.

To be honest Fen ill pass it over to Vince at some point with, VDO unit , 1 pin sensor and the plug if I can source one. Maybe the single pin will work out an easier install hopefully as it is the designated part number attached to the VDO gauges(1pin)

Ill pm you mate what I had to pay, would not say it was good value but at the end of the day a nice bit of kit none the less . On the part diagram it signals a single pin as it has the VDO gauges part number next to it so maybe that one will last longer then the 2 pin set up god knows. Have you got a part number for the plug Fen ? Cheers.

Ok managed to but an aftermarket sensor https://www.mister-auto.co.uk/sender-unit-oil-pressure/fae/14120/. Would of purchased OE but was a whopping £144.00 from classics, the FAE aftermarket one was £28.00 . it was the last one available I could find anywhere so feel quite lucky to be honest !

Hi anyone got the loom and sensor 535 919 561 B its for VDO gauge cluster the OE optional one from factory. I have managed to buy the volt and oil VDo cluster part number 536 919 527 and now need to source a loom and sender 0-10 bar. Switch im sourcing is part number 535 919 561 B number 21 on diagram. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks Can get one from classics but a absolute rip off. http://www.oemepc.com/vw/part_single/catalog/vw/markt/RDW/modell/COR/year/1995/drive_standart/76/hg_ug/919/subcategory/212010/part_id/3690238/lang/e

Sure stock speedlines are great I have some refurbished in the garage under a blanket , I've not long managed to source some BBS RX226 which are loveleyyyy and took me just over a year to source, also have a set of the split rim version BBS RS771 which are at present on the car.

Yeah I can totally understand that, it could even attract thieves to steal your car for them as well, Must admit Im half soaked about getting some and I think the BBS RA stock on the golf look really great and very unique compared to today's alloys so will probably leave stock.

Thanks I actually stumbled across the thread for sale where you advertised them, do you regret selling them? bet they sold for a pretty penny. how much were they advertised for if you don't mind me asking (not the actual selling price). These alloys have a had a few owners from this Forum from what I read , they are like famous lol. Cheers.

Thanks think I'm going to get some 15” BBS RS033 4x100 for my golf or BBSRM instead as I like to go tops 16' with my Rado just personal preference,also more like the 1100 mark then 2k plus for the RS301 so more affordable.

These have recreated the tow cover caps. https://gryp-3d.com/produit/volkswagen-corrado-cache-crochet-de-remorquage-int-760-535853695-535853696/ Engine covers tend to retail at £50.00 if you can get hold of a used one. 50 mm splitters are available new for Heritage. Unfortunately 90mm splitters are obsolete. https://www.vwheritage.com/535805903c-lower-front-splitter-50mm-vw-spare Spoonfed has a 70 mm or 90mm splitter . https://www.spoonfedtuning.com/collections/corrado?page=1

Are those real BBS RS you have on your old car Harrier? if so do you still have them and wheel spec. 5 stud 5x100 etc. Cheers.

They are really smooth V8 even better the V12 but not many knowledgeable mechanics out there that can work on them. There was some really rare pre merger AMG R129's as well the Sl73 which was a 7.3 block V12 (the same engine that Zonda Used)Also an SL60 which was the V8 version, pretty rare stuff but you do see a SL60 come up occasionally but never a SL73.
