Rating 5.0

When I got my new 1992 Corrado SLC I thought the shocks were too soft and replaced them with Bilsteins. They are still fine after 30 years.

Pros: still fine after 30 years
Cons: shocks were too soft

KONI Strut assembly

They make Koni Yellows for the MK1. I loved them on my Corrado SLC. The Koni Yellows for the Corrado SLC were entire struts for the front. I set them right in the middle on stock springs. They were comfortable and it handled as well as my '78 Scirocco on +0 wheels and tires. I like that you could tighten them up if you wanted them stiffer or soften them for a cushy ride. Right in the middle was comfortable on the potholed streets of Hampton Roads but it still cornered like it was on rails.

Pros: comfortable, cornered like rails

Mine on my Corrado VR6 are set right in the middle and are as smooth riding as any car. It also corners better than any car I have owned.

Pros: smooth riding, corners better

  • Cranking:
  • Sounds:
Rating 2.0

Again this is a brand new starter actually it's a rebuilt starter which is Bosch OEM. When I did remove the old starter and put in this new rebuilt Bosch OEM starter the car started right up. The next day I went out to start it and all I got was one loud "CLICK"!

Pros: car started right up
Cons: loud click, wouldn't start

GRAF Water pump
sdezego
  • Leaks:
Rating 1.0

16,000 Miles (12 months) and now the Graf is leaking. After researching it seems a few bearing failures, a few thermostats, and some sensors out of the box are failing on these Graf pumps.

Cons: leaking, bearing failures
Vehicle: Volkswagen Corrado
Mileage: 16000 km
