sorry to read this today & i do hope paypal help to sort the problem i still mod on here as much as i am able to but the change of job does mean im not on here every day like i used to be with regard to these messages & posts i thought i had stemmed it after receiving & taking action on the reports logged with the user being banned & posts deleted, screen shot below i can only think that the PM was sent before i had put the ban in place

im not sure if this will help but i will input anyway the rev needle in my 95 VR6 has played up for many years now & ive had it for about 13 years similar to yourself. some journeys it works fine, others it kind of bounces high but then slowly falls & others it just does nothing. sometimes, now less more than often, a light bang on the top of the dash or a flick of a finger on the front of the rev counter would make it behave long story short, & i am unsure if the issue i have is related to that of yours but I do know that i read a fix on here by KevBacon on here where he either resoldered or replaced a simple component (guessing resistor or capacitor) on the back of the instrument panel i say it might not help as i read it so many years ago ive no idea where it would be on the forum

great work!!

thanks cressa, appreciate your kind words - im really pleased with how they turned out & yes they are almost too good to see the elements but then the same could be said of the VR underside lately! you could eat your dinner off the colour coded raptor under body seal & its all shiny new bolts & parts everywhere you look 😄 i will do my best to get some pics up of the underside restoration this week

thanks matt many many hours of polishing but well worth it & they are the only wheel i have ever wanted for the VR, i could just never find a set in 16's & on the extremely rare occasion some popped up i couldnt afford them to say im excited to see them on is an understatement but ive got to work out spacers & running height yet......i hope to hell they dont rub too bad the delivery work is all in the local area where i am from & you do small postcodes each day, 105 parcels took its toll on me today lol

i wanted to keep the colours in line with those which you could buy a corrado in so went for 1994 vw candy white & 1994 brilliant black metallic bolts from SSR hardware in neo chrome anodised finished with GTech wheel armour & also their dealer only crystal coat which a friend who details at porsche got me i will mail myself the underside pics ive got & get those up here soon

thanks matt & hasan - kind words & as always shows the kind of mentality many of those who still remain here 🙂 TBH life is good with the exception of the job situation but i did start a part time courier job on monday, it is going pretty ok so far regarding the industy, i had my own business with a contract at a local vape shop. i am planning on going solo with my line of vape flavours though & they all used to sell well in store so fingers crossed i can get that going anyway back to the fun stuff - much has happened on the modena's & the many hours of work ive put in on them has paid off, here is a treat of some pics of the process (everything except the paint was done by myself)

not really been on here for while as i lost my job, other than popping on to sort spam & dodgy posts etc - not the best timing when the VR is having a full underside restoration but hey ho not had the blackberry since nov but have seen several times & it is coming along great, i will upload some pics when i get chance i have finished the modena refurb too, tires arrived last week & am hoping to drop them off & do some test fitting in the next week or so i really can not wait to be able to drive it again but dirt is not going to be a friend of mine lol

SOLD

hi chris the last ones worked out abour £83 delivered let me know if you want me to add you to the list

apologies for no updates on this recently as far as i can see we have 4 people so far.... daves16v philipc oneohtwo jared_nomak i will drop Zak a message & see if he is happy to do a run of 4 so as to get these moving

hi james checked this morning & they are ABS sadly, sorry

i will check the boxes of parts ive got for you - i know i have some ECU's but think they may be all ABS rather then engine

good advice thank you i will likely give it a go when the VR is back from its underside work as the interior is all currently out

credit to those we have here still - a very helpful bunch thanks cressa that would be great as i can investigate a scan of the unused one for 3D printing- ive PM'd you

briliiant thank you m8 - will do it now 🙂

that would be handy dox thank you i might be able to get my friend to get the dimensions from it & then use it to try & stop the slight rattle on the VR6 d/s

ive never seen or heard of this code but ive also never had a G60 have you got a Bentley manual - i cant recall if that covers the G60 but i think it does having had a quick search ive found the below, which though it doesnt mention the code you have it might make some sense of the MFA readings & lead you on a trail Boost Check Via MFA - Volkswagen Corrado G60

good thinking dox i know i brought 2 sets that is the annoying thing - i might have a search through the group buys to check who did the run of them previously if i can get the 3D printer file i might be able to get some done somewhere

interesting this as the D/S does very similar in the 16v i know i brought a couple of sets of window rollers in the group buy years ago but ive not been able to find them

hi have you tried LLL parts? they sometimes have the exploded diagrams to drill down part numbers

hi the post you are asking about is from over 12 years ago im afraid

afternoon all good news! having received another pm about looms we are up to 4 people so ive contacted Zak & he is happy to do another run. as per previous runs, he works offshore & sometimes for long periods so they will be done as soon as time & work allows. similar to the previous buys we will set a minimum quantity, once that is hit we will ask people for deposits & then final balance will be due once they are made & ready to ship could i please politely request that people only put their name down if they are certain they want a loom & are happy with the terms - unfortunately on the last run we had a couple of people who put their name down but then did not reply to any contact messages i will start to form a list once we have a bit more interest

hi m8 do you have any dehumidifiers in there? before i sold the 16v a few weeks ago i was having to wipe drips off the rear & front windscreen even with 2 dehumidifiers in there - as such it could just be heavy condensation rather water ingress the 16v is water tight too as id checked sunroof drains & also reskinned the door membranes
