will keep it in mind mate cheers!

good luck at least its not the radiator! Ive got a small coolant leak coming from somewhere but aint worrying about it couple of drops thats it and its not while its running so gonna be hard to find the cause. Figured id wait till the chains get done!

Yeah lets see a pic! G60's are nice but vr6's are better! LOL! Enjoy it! :lol:

looks very nice for 130k+ car ! enjoy it but dont bin it! When i first got mine the first week you just cant stop making excuses to go out for a drive then fuel comes into account and you have to limit a good blast to a few days!

its got 127k goldie chains have never been changed and probably due for a change! Yeah rattles at a bout 1,250 rpm when i hold it there and read that if its like that time for renewal! Also gives piece of mind sorting them anyway before anything drastic happens! Whats this high gloss deano? I use exacty what you use the autoglym stuff cant go wrong! was out there friday doing it and the gardener across the way said its looking nice and i hadnt even polished or waxed it!lol! He said he wished his wifes n reg rover looked like that i was thinking to myself rovers arnt renowned for aging gracefully! :lol:

Just thought id update my thread with a couple of pics of the storm still loving it getting the chains etc done later this month and getting the solitudes refubed! Looks so much better after a bit of care on the paint work if you look at the then and now the colour has just been lifted! Then Now

where did you get the brake discs from mate? they crossed drilled? And are they green stuff pads? Any problem with the set up squeaks etc?

theres no haynes out for it mate but people have been purchasing these bently manuals expensive but if you look on ebay they do sell .pdf versions that can just be viewed on your computer! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-CORRADO-90-94-BENTLEY-Workshop-Manual-Book_W0QQitemZ270092097954QQihZ017QQcategoryZ18439QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem As for the oil temp sensor havnt a clue mate!

If thats the case you could have too much pressure in the system caused by a faulty coolant cap or air in the system!

there should be some resistance but not too much! The pipes shouldnt be rock solid!

£1070 quid then mate! :lol:

probably got it knocked down cos they were doin other work on the car too!

whats everyones best price for the chains etc? What gets changed on a new timing chain? tensioners what else?

whos rated in the north west? want a cat1 fitted!

anyone advise are the ones on this website the ones im after its the last bulb under panel? http://www.consumabulbs.com/files/nproduct.php?mk=71&md=944

Right as above the bulbs have gone they are the originals so want to replace with the same where can i get a couple of them? what colour are they(standard remember)? Cheers!

yeah thats a top vid! UK meet time 43 corrados i think the uk lot can beat that!

ahh got ya!

whats abs gotta do with it may i ask??

Dunno if all of them did it i think the later corrados did one window at a time! passenger side first etc.! Cant understand why the windows dont close when the sunroof is open! maybe its been wired up like that!

Well done mate told you its worth doing yourself plus you get the added bonus of saying yes i fitted that radiator!

Lol first dibs on the heated seat relay!!

There getting rarer and rarer! They'll be none left soon!

yeah you just turn the key into the lock position and hold it there till all the windows and sunroof are shut!

next pay day the 20th so will wait till then they are £200 quid so not bad!
