WHICH mount to loosen to replace the front drivers control arm
Crasher replied to STORM 2's topic in Engine Bay
You also need to release the front mount under the radiator but lifting the engine high enough puts a lot of strain on hoses and wiring plus the front mount bracket hits the bottom of the radiator cowl from dim and distant memory. I prefer to drop the subframe and if you are doing both wishbones, it is only four more bolts plus the one for the column shaft.If the sump is in the usual terrible condition, you could remove it instead. -
Stretched? Are you sure it hasn’t pulled its thread? The part number is 021 103 397 but unfortunately they are obsolete.

And I need a left…

Consider the MOT implication. The Mk20 system is much better but good pumps are becoming hard to find.
-
The cable adjustment reaction circlip will be missing, part number N 900 956 03 and £3.12 from VW dealers, the other problem sounds like an air leak.

Sorry, I did not get a notification. I don’t have a picture to hand, it is the dual blue fuse box plug to 28 pin dash harness I need with the green two pin plug coming off, these harness are usually all white cables.

I need a Corrado 95 VR6 dash harness the 28 pin cluster socket to plugs U1 and U2? Anyone how can help? I think the OE number is 3A2 971 064 A. I have one but I need another.

It is in the same place but there is an RSJ looking strengthening beam over the top of the sender.

2023 e-tron GT headlight, £5132.40... mind that is a bargain compared to the £3102952 for the high voltage battery... On the TT2 cabrio, if the lift pump fails it is fuel tank out which is rear subframe exhaust down.

I will go and have a look now, I had forgotten.

Remind me tomorrow, they are in the unit next to the one I rent out to a motorbike chap and he doesn't do Mondays. He uses my spare compressor which is in the unit so goes in there every morning to fire it up so unlocking and turning the alarm off. I know I have one for a Corrado and one for a Golf 3 VR6 as we broke one of each to build the Golf 2... just not sure where they are, could be in the shipping container next to the unit but last time I went in there it was full of mould, a wasp nest and half a dozen bumble bees; the local feral cat population live under it.

I think I have one that belongs to a customer and forum member, I will check tomorrow

Interesting article - Corrado is it a "sportscar" no but...
Crasher replied to _Matt_'s topic in General Car Chat
To be able to do the job it was imperative that I was able to deal with Tradition which I have not been able to do since just over half the people who voted said leave…. 🙈. Eventually after jumping through many hoops of fire I have been able to get an account and some of the prices are less than what they were when available directly through VAG UK although the carriage charges are outrageous BUT we had no choice. I have another €500 of parts in my basket but my customer has bought himself another Audi to practice his DIY skills and he may need a few parts for that. -

We are just about to start a full front to back mechanical restoration of a 95 S2 Avant, getting all the parts together has been a trial and test of patience.
