Very nice car. I was looking for something like this last summer..Wrong cost though. If i were closer and I could thin the heard by 3 cars, I would seriously try to talk myself into this. GLWS!

Nice Car bump!

Is the car drive-able when the transmission is in limp mode? What shape/condition is the suspension in? Exhaust, brakes, rust etc Would it need any major maintenance in the near future? Looking for semi dependable first car for my daughter. I would like to not have to do major repairs (outside...

What are you looking to get for your old wagon?

Godspeed Chris. :-(

You're cray.....

Frank, My offer still stands, I will drop off the B4 and the Corrado for you to work your Magic!;) :D

That is what I am doing, but mine will be "1Z" The mods done to my B4 where enough to make me smile, all those torks in the lighter nimbler Corrado, will be that much more enjoyable.. Although my Stage 4 G60 was no slouch..... Did someone say B4 part out?:)

"Stalled on me" is pretty vague. Especially followed by "n never tried to fix it" On my first 90 Corrado, I had a hall sender issue on the distributer. Sometimes it wouldn't start or sputter while running, I just disconnected the plug and reconnected it and I could continue on till...

It has been a few years since I rebuilt my front end and replaced the bushings and bearings etc. (I did install the TT rear bushings) Since you didn't mention if you are replacing the tie rods or not, I would do the control arms first, let the strut support the weight of the brake rotor, hub...

You Passat is running and has a warranty, has more space and can be financed. Can't say that about this R32 TDI. I also tried to rationalize this car. Unless I get large stocking full of Benjamin's for Christmas, it is to be a wish list car for most of us. A hell of a car for sure though...

Hey, want to thank you for your Grill Work!. I had the second burger off the grill, chudzikb snagged the first. Very tasty! Thanks to John for hosting another year! And to Tomo (DOM) for running point again. Hopefully I wil have some form of TDI with me next year.

The biggest obstacle in accessing the exhaust and intake manifold is the EGR cooler. With that out of the way, you can get to the intake, downpipe to turbo connection, oil lines and what not. I bought a couple of EGR block of plates a Corrado heater hose and your set. You will have access to...

I had every intension of keeping the car a G60. I have a spare short block (bought from G60ING about 8-9 yrs ago.) Also have a new set of JE 9:1 83mm forged pistons and total seal rings bought about the same time. Had a quaife as well but sold it. But with gas going no where but up I always...

Yeah, I have a Corrado... Owned one for 21 years now.:eek: (2 90 G60's)

Looks Blue from where I am sitting.;) Now if only G60ing would get off his butt and start mine....:rolleyes:

His issue appeared to be a stuck caliper, not the screw. I have had a broken screw on my Corrado b4 and it never caused a problem with noise or braking whatsoever. Admittedly it makes trying to line up the wheel and bolt it to the hub a PITA if the rotor isn't secure to the hub. But other...

I did it recently (middle of winter) working on the ground. I did it the way Bruce recommends above. Pull the bracket, drop the pump, new flange. Although I did have some trouble getting the pump back in the upper bracket\bottom of the IP IIRC. Gave me a bear of a time. But I had just finished...

Thanks Tom, That is basically what I saw before the rains came and I had to put it back together. Although I didn't get the boot pulled down all the way and I couldn't figure out how to get the harness "shroud" off and I didn't want to break it. Any trick to removing it? Also once I get to the...

No I did not look inside the wire bundle. I was looking for the wrong thing then. I was looking for something attached to the car body. After I cleaned the four grounding points and installed my new glow plug harness. I took it out for about a half hour or so. No symptoms or codes. Tomorrow I...
