    Got my VR6 last November, come December theres coolant pissing from the pump. I remove the pump (looked to be the original VW pump) to replace with a Euro Car Parts item. February comes round and again water making an exit from the little valve on the pump. I grab another pump from a local motor factor as I need the car running asap. Alls fine until yesterday - water releasing from the little valve bit on the pump. I'm going on a trackday tomorrow so I need a pump ASAP so its going to have to be another motor factor job. So this will be my 3rd replacement waterpump in 7 months. Otherwise the c

    I've bought a Corrado 2.9 VR6 running fine. However it has had problems before as there is a dodgy bit of wire connecting the Red/Blue wire from the ECU to the Black wire on the coil.

    Apologies for the short sentances but I'm at my wit's end with this. My VR is not firing on cylinder 1 - this only seems to happen when warmed up. Removed plugs, the plug from cylinder 1 is the only one wet with petrol. Swapped whole HT lead (new leads 4 months ago) with another and still plug 1 is wet. swap plug with a new one, still wet and missing. connect spare plug to lead on cylinder 1 and start car - runs the same (missing on cylinder 1 obviously) and plug connected to lead 1 is sparking away happily. Hook up to VAG com, no fault codes. Wait till dark and spray coilpack and lead with wa
