    There are two types of gasket for the rocker cover as far as I'm aware, there are differences in the metal and plastic ones as are the studs

    I had an odd problem once, turning left and going over bumps it actually ended up being a loose wire on ECU that would cause it to cut out slightly, the side effect was it appears to "bog down" and then go again, but I've also had similar issues with my MAF, didn't show any fault codes though.

    The corrado is a future classic, and well worth keeping in good condition, restore as much as possible to original. I've had things such as tank straps fabricated up, and shot blasted all engine brackets, sub-frames etc.. and re-powder coated them to be like now... If people can keep cars on the road that are 50 - 60 years old then im sure we can too! get some photos of your car uploaded be interesting see how it comes along

    Hi mate, There's 3 options here: 1) You use http://www.vr6oc.com/userlocate.php to see who lives close to you 2) Take off your old hard line and take it to a garage and get them make a template of it, shouldn't cost much to be honest. 3) Hope that someone on here a) lives close to you, and has the tools to make up the hard line Personally, if you are in a rush to MOT, go with option 2 :)

    Hi mate, you will struggle with Corrado parts, I know! I've been rebuilding mine for 4 years and some parts are difficult to get "new" a lot of the things I've had have been second hand that I've restored. Luckily, some parts share the same from the Golf etc..., so you can get from http://www.vwspares.co.uk/ You can get Febi wiper motors off ebay which are OK. With your ABS Accumulator, these are known for developing dry joints on the solder, if your careful you can strip these and re-solder and you should be ok, vince @ Stealth Racing has done this before with success. Other websites you ca

    mmm its difficult to say, but if you are doubting yourself, and your confident that the slave cylinder is OK then the only thing you can do is remove the gearbox to check, the last thing you want to do is damage the clutch to the point you need a new one. Pete
