Going with Odyssey MK7.5. The one in my Raptor is awesome 3 years old and tests like it was new. Its not lighter but its a great battery. Try Braille batteries.
Reviews of spare parts for Volkswagen
This years projects are all done.. finally got the rear big brakes finished and they came out great.. a lot of work but, brake pedal feel is just as good as with the fronts only, and this thing will make your teeth fly out when you put them down.
I have these tires on my GTI, and love them - now on my second set. The first set lasted me over 45k miles. They got noisy at the end of their life, but they're great in wet weather, and all around grip is excellent.
The current tires are Michelin Premier A/S's. They are a nice tire, quiet, grippy and pricey.
Hi all, after a long time, the problem solved by instaling a non refurbished Valeo alternator. Same one as the refurbished was.
The Atlas does a solid job with a little lift (mine is the Forge Motorsports 1.5" [3.8 cm] spacer lift) and some good all-terrain tires (Cooper Discoverer AT3-4S on 17" x 8" rims; 235/75R17s).
I purchased my new pump from FCPEuro - highly recommend them - it was "aftermarket" but was the same brand (VDO, a division of Continental) as the original, and was reasonably priced at a little over $200.
I got BOSCH AL113M from Adv auto (with a code cost me about 80), then went to tractor supply and got several large washers. I took the pulley off my old alt and put it on the new long-nose alt, stacking washers until it lined up.
replaced ignition switch and now lights stay out on dash when ignition is off but when i go to turn car on i get nothing at all.
Regarding the aluminum radiator, yes aluminum is better than nylon 6/6 or whatever zytel sh!t from Dupont VW lines the engine bay with. However, none of the aluminum rads Ive seen actually fit a Corrado. I tried to install a Godspeed version. It was gob welded chinese garbage but still probably much better than the OEM plastic. It was off in every dimension, would of required taking a hacksaw to the front end of the Corrado.
