Vw.bones 10 Posted July 20, 2011 Hay guys finally got round to some way over due maintainance on the rado today....Full oil flush Black as coal couldnt get my breath....change power steering fluidFlush out and change ( the gunk that came out of the hose was seriously way over due to be changed...nice green stuff in and running now and super silent power steering)....coolant flush and change not in bad condition in fairness but non the less needed doing... Rado feels and drives even better than it did before given that I bought the car with a full serice history...you have to question what consumables these garages use anyway thats my day and little rant over...good times.

Danny B 0 Posted July 20, 2011 Satisfying ....... you should do the gearbox oil while your at it - Redline MT90. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted July 20, 2011 Gearbox oil is nice and easy and well worth doing. It's easy to see why we're getting ever cheaper services at garages.. they're just cutting corners on everything. Fuel filters, and fluids such as those already mentioned... there are so many little jobs that need doing that just don't get done. Always worth taking your Corrado to a specialist who'll actually do these little jobs.. or of course, do them yourself :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steveo29 0 Posted July 21, 2011 agreed on the mt90 , you will almost always notice a nice improvement Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted July 21, 2011 good work. With any car if you look after it well, change fluids and flilters as required it will repay you with reliability and a good drive. New cars with all their sensors etc are another bag though... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
