  1. dosn't take a lot of water to make that much mess. your head gasket might just be on the way thats why you havn't noticed the coolant loss yet. i agree with change of oil.then a nice long run to get rid of any condensation. make sure you keep close eye on temp just incase
  2. hi sorry its been so long but only just got car fixed. mate turned up plugs in diagnostic unit gets data transfer error message strips dash removes immobiliser control box close look reveals that one of the pins is slightly bent. gets little screwdriver straightens it plugs back in hey presto everything is ok. the questions i have is.....1)with a plug in there how do you bend a pin by hitting a pot hole?.......2) why didnt the garage spot this or at least check and why did they charge me £141.00 for labour for not finding the fault???????????? ive been had :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored:
  3. just had phone call from the garage. they have had the car for a week and a half and they cant find whats wrong with it. dont know what to do next might strip for spares. :epicfail: :censored: mate just phoned coming round tomorrow with 1551 diagnostic box. hopefully get to bottom of it then. he has kids cant make it till Tuesday :( this is turning into a right epic might just put g60 back on the road.
  4. yeah tried that no change now been towed into garage.lost patience with it. time to let someone else have the headache.would like to thank everyone for there input pity non of it worked it might have saved me a pretty penny. dreading the bill as it as gone to a vw specialist :( . will let you know the result when it comes back in case any one has same problem in the future.
  5. checked collar that is ok battery ok control unit for imob ok new ignition switch last year fuse box checked all ok may have to tow it to C & R in notts. as i am fast running out of ideas :scratch: wouldnt mind but they are expensive and i need my car this week cos i have my kids two days left to try and sort. :brickwall: have been told this could be caused by faulty temp sender. anybody know if this is right?
  6. yes i have spark and car does start then die's after a second or two. at my wits end two c's sat on drive going nowhere :help:
  7. hi people in big need of some help here. i have a g60 and a 20L 8v g60 off the road since mid jan for major overhaul but my work horse (20L 8v) has decided not to play. was running fine till wife hit pot hole. she drove another half mile or so till safe to pull over changed tyre got back in would fire first time as normal then die straight away. two recovery men later i have it home. both breakdown men say fuel pump gone. :epicfail: :salute: took both fuel lines off injectors turned car over loads of fuel . me thinks transponder key / immobiliser fault. any ideas ? thanks in advance.
  8. i started with a 20l 16v my wife then wanted one so got her 20l 8v i then upgraded to a g60 wife wanted one she upgraded to g60. with 4 corrado's on the drive thought it was time to sell one. goodbye 16v. was gutted. me and wife now split but she still has g60 and i still have 8v & g60. when its in your blood there is no getting away.
