windscreen wiper intermittent wipe twin speed?
Supercharged replied to akacheesy's topic in Exterior
It's all in the instruction manual! -
Chris - Eric (Tempest) actually had his Corrado matrix done this year under VW warranty!!
-
Glad things worked out ok!

The radiator thermoswitch does this... I would unplug the sensor you changed to see if it goes back to how it was, maybe an earth fault. Relay number 21 is for the flashers - I would try a new one
-
It could well be a faulty ignition switch or 109 (ECU) relay if neither have been replaced recently
-
What car do you have?? Engine / Year?? Did the garage do a diagnostic, if so any codes? Did they try a new ignition switch, ECU and Fuel pump relays before changing the crank sensor? If it's a late (1994) car with factory immobiliser there is a common issue with a simple fix!

Leak down test is a bit more comprehensive... but the above sounds good, WD40 maybe a bit thin bt may still do the job Due to cooling issues though VR's due suffer wear of the outer cylinder bores - i.e. 1 and 6!

Reminds me of the Travelodge I stayed at in Farringdon!

Tyres don't really count as they're wear items... No offence but you buy a 20 year old car for £1200, you have to expect a few things need doing! -
davidwort's 16v - looking a bit shinier

I think they're the wrong mounts too mate, being an M plate i'm sure the 8v's should have the MK3 style 'comfort' mounts? Just read your last page too - was that Track Rod tool a VAG tool? Looks the business! ---------- Post added at 10:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 PM ---------- Ah - the change was in 1995... http://www.vwspares.co.uk/corrado_suspension.php -

First of all are you sure it's gone? lots of garages diagnose HG failure on VW's as they are unaware of the water / oil heat exchanger. -

Top mounts have to be VAG, nothing else lasts like them... I'm now on over 80k with some VR ones, the pattern ones I had before barely lasted a year! The most important stuff to change now are the upper spring plates - our harsh winters really don't do the metal parts of the running gear any good. -
Need to get it on VAGCOM first before doing anything!

One of the mounted ones for me please too - can I collect at the next show if you don't mind hanging onto it for a bit? -
What - you mean you actually found a use for one of those??? I've never found they fit anything useful at all! 3CM - Part number is in the thread I linked!!
