1990 Volkswagen Corrado G-60 review from North America
"A quirky car that is extremely fun to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the water pump after I first bought the car... and it still leaks.
Replaced both CV joints and half shafts.
Replaced the battery.
Horrible vibration during acceleration. I still don't know what is causing this.
I will soon need exhaust work in the amount of $1200.00.
General comments?
I am having difficulty finding anyone that knows about these cars in order to properly service it.
The vibration during acceleration is annoying, especially since no once can figure out what it is. Possibly the clutch assembly needs to be replaced and the flywheel resurfaced.
