    Yeah - agree with Mat but also check the electric water pump is working...

    Blimey - I wouldn't expect an SP30 to increase it at all, it's almost expected to be standard these days - have you spoke to them on the phone?

    Only for 4cyl models tho...

    ABS PROBLEM

    Supercharged replied to sikaa1's topic in Drivetrain

    In that case it could be a rusty or distorted abs rotor (the part that the sensor looks at) if the sensor is ok... Kerrinmay - check out http://www.vagcom.co.uk

    jam3383, Superb - thats what it's all about... I'd get a new oil line and boost return kit off them too... I don't think there is a guide but I'd get some advice of Darren if your fitting yourslef - I think the intercooler needs to blown out with an airline and all boost pipes will need to be cleaned...

    Not sure if one of the microswitches on the spoiler mech could cause this??

    Check the part of the pedal that holds the white adapter for the MC hasn't broken it's spot weld... Is it a hydraulic clutch? - if so get it bled - you will need to use a pressure bleeder for this (easy bleed kit) - if the slave is inside the gearbox there will be a bleed valve somewhere near the selectors... What was done in the body shop - take it back if it's related to work they did...

    Jeez - what mileage was it on / had it been rebuilt? You should be able to pick a second hand one up for about £350 if you look around but that would then need a rebuild... remember it's not just a case of sticking it on tho - the intake system will have to be thoroughly cleaned and you will need to blank off the boost return pipe.

    Hmmm - something may have shorted / come loose but i'd check the ignition switch first....

    Whats the battery voltage Ben?
  13. Supercharged
    They do look long - should be 425mm

    What did he make you do!?!

    Sorry I meant SKF (always get it wrong) - they are the OE bearing supplier to VW, cost a couple of quid more and last 3 times as long...

    ABS PROBLEM

    Supercharged replied to sikaa1's topic in Drivetrain

    Unplug the sensor wires at the top of the suspension turrets and measure resistance and compare with each other... does the light come on before the car moves? - if so may be a connection problem

    VR6Bella, welcome to the forum. Rear bearings are 'taper' style so no torque setting - just hand tight with a split pin Only use SFK bearings - avoid anything else... Change in pairs and you may as well do discs and pads at the same time along with new abs cages if fitted. You can find the procedure in any mk2/3 era Haynes manual but you will need a brake caliper windback tool to do the pads / discs - £15 from GSF etc...
  18. Supercharged
    Yeah, similar procedure for VR6 but it's much easier of you remove the front bumper as the clearance between the twin fan setup and inlet manifold is tight to say the least...

    Bagsy the side repeater and aeriel...

    Salt in this country does seem to corrode things quite badly but that doesn't look as bad as some originals I've seen... that may be a ECP one as they are a lot lighter than the VAG ones - VAG ones are marked 'Denso-Marsden' on a sticker at the top...
  21. Supercharged
    Yep, it's a mk1 part - never fitted to any Corrado 171 721 647 Retails at £3.94 + vat but with discount I paid about £2.50+vat
  22. Supercharged
    Pics like that scare the sh1te out of me...
  23. Supercharged
    Nah - shouldn't fail MOT as it only really holds the rad but may do if the bit underneath is rusty as thats the front engine carrier...
  24. Supercharged
    Here's the part...
  25. Supercharged
    They're still available - about £250
