Stonejag 10 Posted April 5, 2015 Thanks - I''ll box it up. Any preference as to which one you get? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tigerfish 10 Posted April 5, 2015 Are they the same for all late VR's? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stonejag 10 Posted April 5, 2015 Are they the same for all late VR's? Sorry, can't answer that one - there's no chassis number split in ETKA so although they should all be the same it's not for definite. Best bet is to remove the trim panel under the passenger's side of the dash and have a look, it's only a few screws. The ABS controller will be mounted on the outside (against the wing) by three bolts - but you will only need to remove it to check the part number of the sticker's on the back like one of these! Or you could find out over Vag-com if you have a cable. Stone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted April 5, 2015 I tested one with a 'D' suffix in my car, that came with an 'E'. Both worked as they should so I think they're interchangeable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roger Chatfield 0 Posted April 5, 2015 Is this basically a abs ecu? I'm intrigued by the 'diff lock' thing? Rog. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stonejag 10 Posted April 5, 2015 Hi Roger, Short answer is, yes, these are ABS ECUs. VW realised that they could do something clever in cars equipped with an ABS system - since the ECU is constantly monitoring the rotation speed of all four wheels to detect when one is skidding during braking, they can also tell if wheelspin is occurring during acceleration. In the Corrado system, when you're doing under 25mph the system checks to see if one front wheel is spinning much faster than the other - this indicates that the wheel is slipping (losing traction) and the diff is wasting engine power in spinning that wheel which could be being better used to apply torque to the other. If this happens the ECU tells the ABS pump to apply the brake on that single wheel - this slows its rotation, which means that since torque is conserved in an open diff the other wheel receives more torque, getting the power down more effectively. It's quite a primitive form of traction control but significantly cheaper than fitting a limited-slip diff as standard! Not all Corrados had this feature, so there are two part numbers: suffix D (without EDL) and suffix E (with EDL). I know of no reason the two should need different sensors or looms - there's only one loom part number listed in ETKA - so my guess is that they're interchangeable, but that is a guess. Late Corrados definitely came with EDL but I don't know when they changed over Stone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon green 4 Posted April 5, 2015 None of the four stud Corrado's fitted with ABS came with this feature ! M/C is the same,but the pump is different ,it'll be interesting to see if they would fit.(not me,I've got traction control) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thegolfman 0 Posted April 5, 2015 Where's the ABS ECU situated? Might be interested in the remaining one if mine is an earlier pre EDL one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean_Jaymo 0 Posted April 5, 2015 Is it as high as 25mph? I thought it was 12kmh? It's not a launch assist type system, it's more a help to pull away on snow and sand system. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 22 Posted April 5, 2015 Where's the ABS ECU situated? Might be interested in the remaining one if mine is an earlier pre EDL one. By the front passengers left ankle under the dash forward of the door behind a plastic cover. If you have edl you'll hear a dinging noise as you wheelspin away from standstill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted April 6, 2015 Where's the ABS ECU situated? Might be interested in the remaining one if mine is an earlier pre EDL one. Tony, your has a D suffix. I put it in my car to diagnose my faulty abs but swapped it back after finding mine was good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
geoffersmaher 10 Posted April 6, 2015 I have a late 16v 9a with abs an id also would be interested to know if this was a viable conversion and if anyone else had done it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stonejag 10 Posted April 6, 2015 Is it as high as 25mph? I thought it was 12kmh? It's not a launch assist type system, it's more a help to pull away on snow and sand system. Was going from RW1's excellent explanation here: (link). Looks to me like all VR's should have EDL, plus any other cars that have six valve ports on the ABS pump. If you fit a 'D' model ECU to these then you'll get all the standard ABS features but no EDL. I think. Stone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean_Jaymo 0 Posted April 7, 2015 I don't know if all that information is particularly relevant to the Corrado though in how it works. He mentions steering angle and there is no known steering angle that the abs system uses. I know it's all particularly irrelevant anyway. Fact is its should be there on corrados, if it isn't, somebody has been swapping parts around! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g0ldf1ng3r 13 Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) Hi stonejag i will take the remaining one please. could you PM me payment details thanks edit: PM also sent Edited April 8, 2015 by g0ldf1ng3r Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g0ldf1ng3r 13 Posted April 8, 2015 Oh my word this panjo cr4p is absoluteley awful!! First time trying to use it & never again 30 minutes trying to send a payment WTF!? Panjo says im outside of US & errors on post code sometimes it lets me through to payment but then says my paypal account doesnt have enough funds, despite it being linked to my bank account then when i try to pay by card the page initially loads a payment screen with option for card info but then switches to a 'create paypal account' page stonejag - ive PM'd you & im sorry but i cant get the payment to go through. i shall await your PM with info thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
