Did they say they wouldn't refurbish or that they don't sell the seal kit any more? Would be bad news for the Corrado community if this service wasn't available any more. Best bet would be to refurbish and then fit a second hand one if you don't want to leave your car without one. Last time I checked earlier this year they were still refurbishing them. I think one of the issues with a seal kit is that unless a cylinder is in good shape, the bore needs to be widened a slight amount as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
faigolfgti 0 Posted December 1, 2020 The second hand brake master cylinder in ebay is for parts only need to do refurbish. I email to pastparts and reply from them is don't have the seals or repair kit for sale and don't have stock for the refurbish brake master cylinder. I don't understand why VW obsolete this very important part and use by so many VW (passat vr6, corrado vr6 and mk3 golf vr6). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fendervg 30 Posted December 1, 2020 The problem is that the RHD ABS and m/c are specific to the UK VR6, and only a very small number of other models also RHD, so no more are being manufactured after stocks ran out. They are only used in syncro Passats and Golfs as far as I know, and some Volvos, so not a great pool. Another option is to retrofit a later Teves 20 system where parts are readily available, or to delete it altogether - although I personally would only go down that route for a track car. The RHS clutch master cylinder for a VR6 is nearly as hard to get - the engine bay layout is different between RHD/LHD as the pedal box is on a different side.

Dox 22 Posted December 1, 2020 Certain Volvos have a similar set up with the pedal pos sensor, I’ve often wondered if we could use there servo set up? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure, as I've never seen one of the Volvos with the Teves 04 set up in the flesh - but would be interesting - surely at least some of it would come in handy.

seanl82 23 Posted December 1, 2020 I had mine refurbished by pastparts a few months back. I doubt they'd sell the seal kit separately, and they actually said on the phone that they get their seals from Spain which was why mine took so long to be returned. They usually have a few spare refurbished ones in stock and just exchange you unit when received, but apparently quite a few either exchanged or bought them straight over the early lockdown period.
