  1. ok how about an 02a gearbox from a 96 b4 passat box code CHA would this be the one your on about?
  2. Hi all, after a few problems with my driveshaft coming out of the gearbox looks like i need a replacement gearbox for my 91 g60 :( are corrado gearboxes interchangable if so what else will fit on mine? i have a low milage box off a 95 2.0 16v will it go on and are the driveshafts the same?? i have searched but not found any answers thanks in advance for any advice i have sent a donation to andi
  3. mate i know how it feels same happened to me 6 mths ago! bonnet was secure and had been for a couple of weeks since i opened it last and still just flew up at 70mph??? it mite not be as bad as you think tho, when i stripped mine it was surprising how much of the roof just popped out its probarly the bent sunroof & broken sunroof mech making it look worse than it is.mine looked a lot better as soon as i replaced that! re bond the strentheners light skim new windscreen and bonnet, and good as new i was gonna have a respray any way and managed claim on insurance pay £200 to the garage and got the whole car done! i did have to strip it ready for the garage tho but i learned alot doing it! chin up just thank your lucky stars your alive.i had my 4yr old boy in the car at the time and shat myself!!! never did find anything wrong with the bonnet mech tryed to make it and it wouldnt?? replaced it any way :D stu
  4. i picked up the circlip today from vw to find it was alot smaller than i thought! i thought it went a bit further down the flange not right on the end!!?? am i right in thinking the lip has worn off the end where its supposed to go or have vw given me the wrong part?? has anyone got a photo of one so i know what its ment to look like :( DSCI0483.JPG[/attachment:aee09fww] this is mine
  5. just had a fish around in side the gearbox and no sign of a circlip :confused4: hopefully fell out when the drive shaft did. wot do you reckon put on a new circlip and put it back in???? and refill oil obviously would a drive shaft off a 1995 2.0 16v be the same i think ive got a knackerd one in my shed some where? hopefully with a circlip
  6. yes i have lost oil ive took the drive shaft out hub end as well now and cant see a circlip on the gear box end? where is it ment to be?
  7. the flange has come out of the gearbox
  8. Hi All, as in the title i was on my way to the vw show @stonham barns yesterday when my front left drive shaft started making a grinding noise then lost all drive!! on inspection i found the drive shaft has come out of the gear box :confused4: i didnt think the drive shaft should have enuf play in and out to do this? i checked the cv and seems ok, doesnt twist just in and out so tapped it back in looked all the way home and had drive again. i drove it a short distance and it started to come out again? can any one shed any light on this? am i missing some thing? oh car is a corrado 1991 g60 thnx stu
  9. can any 1 confirm my theory? was hoping to have a go tomorrow?
  10. so if i use an early loom in a late door with late doorcards the only difference is the mirror adjuster as described in the wiki guide? is that right ? i hope so!!
  11. Hi all i have searched this forum to death and cant find out what i need to know. Right basicly i have a 1991 G60 with knackered doors rust everywhere. I have a 2 late spec doors and late door cards i need to fit. What is the best way of going about this? I have read that the wiring is all different. am i best to leave the late wiring loom in the door or thread through the old loom? HELP!!???? Stu

    wheres the horn?!

    had same problem last week. found two seperate horns behind front grill disconnected one of them and the other worked?! worked for me and got me through the MOT??
  14. yes it will do if you tell them thats wot u want. They only do a green top tint for corrados tho!!
  15. take it back mate its under warranty if u just had it done! its not been fitted properly if the trim has come out. the screen its self should be put in and pulled tight against the body while the glue drys to hold the trim in.extra sealant shoulnt be used as this can hold water in the aperture blocking drainage of water and causing premature rust! the trim thats come out isnt a waterproof seal so water shouldnt come in but might whistle a bit. hope this helps stu
  16. i used to fit windscreens and original allways fits better,but its not really the make u should be worryed about its more the experience of the the guy fitting it! Believe me the last thing u want is a trainee having a go! My advice is to have it fitted in their depot not a mobile appointment as are more likely to get a good job done.
