russed99 0 Posted January 4, 2011 The bit that goes in the gearbox. MOT looms so need to get it sorted. 2.0 engine but i'm sure the 1.8's will be the same. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted January 4, 2011 I'm intrigued! alright matey :D edit: seen your sig. Glad you got another one :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
russed99 0 Posted January 5, 2011 Hows tricks Jon? Had it nearly a year now mate, 1st mot fast approaching. Couldn't keep away for long, you know how it is :luvlove: . I need to stop being lazy and get a thread started in the members section, not sure it will be as epic as yours tho bud. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted January 5, 2011 Doing alright matey, just finishing up Uni at the moment, then getting married in the summer! Haven't touched the car for about 2 years :/ eager to get on with it though,it's sat next to my brother's G60 on his drive :D finding time to do work on a corrado is hard enough, but documenting it all aswell is almost impossible! get some pics up when you can :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted January 5, 2011 Russ, have you put a 2.0 8v or 16v in yours now? I think the 16v will have the electronic speedo sensor, as opposed to the mechanical one that my KR has. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
russed99 0 Posted January 5, 2011 I've put a 2 litre 16v in mate. Well, my mate did it for me this time after the near breakdown yours gave me. Lol. Used the box off the 1.8 tho cos i knew it was a good one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
russed99 0 Posted January 6, 2011 Bump. Any ideas? Mot next week. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted January 6, 2011 Sounds like a 9A engine then, unless it's the 2.0 from a Mk3 Golf (ABF I think?) surely someone will know the answer. There are enough Corrado 2.0 16v owners on here who should know about their own car! :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
russed99 0 Posted January 7, 2011 Yeah its a 9a Jon. Came out of a passat. Don't really know where to go. Someone suggested vw, but do they keep any spares for our dinosaur cars anymore? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted January 7, 2011 Sorry, being an idiot. If you're using the 1.8 box then it will of course be the same as mine, which is a mechanical drive. They may still keep stock of them, all you can do is ask! Else the speedo cables on ebay for mk2 golf should all fit (they're all mechanical). The one you want has a silver hex end where it screws into the gearbox. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
russed99 0 Posted January 9, 2011 Yeah, i've read somewhere that mk2 1.3 golf cables will fit. There a bit shorter but will go apparently. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted January 9, 2011 That's cool :D sounds like a possible fix then! Good luck with the MOT. If you need any parts, please please PM me! I have way too many at the mo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
