If you e-mail them to me I will post them for you – syncromeister@gmail.com
Do you know where is “light green” vacuum hose in MK3 (color?)?
Sorry no I dont, but there are people on here with mk3 Syncro models that should be able to help.
No, unfortunately the Passat one will not fit, both Dan (housey) & I have tried it with different front triangles and it fouled both times
The front Rallye ARB is 23mm – P/N 191 411 309C this bar is fitted to the 2wd G60 Golf
and also all Corrados built from 1988 to 1995
I have is shown as still available from VW
BTW the std front bar is 21.5mm diameter, its the rear bars that are 18.5 & 20mm dia [
]Unfortunately they are out of print at the moment, but I wonder how many orders would be needed for a new print run?
It may be worth approaching him to see, if anyone has any interest please post on here.
I can then phone him in the new year with a provisional order to see what the prices etc will be?
btw if it comes off it will be cash with order please,
I have one here but it is in dutch,
I also have this and although it is for the Passat it does cover the G60 engine & Syncro drivetrain as fitted to the Rallye Golf
Is there a special way to bleed up the ABS brakes? – Yes, I have a paper (how to) copy here somewhere I will try & find it this week for you.
I replaced it with fresh dot 5.1 – Dot 4 please not dot 5
I have adjusted the handbrake cable so there is less play and the cables look way too long and seem like they are pretty new, so maybe they have been replaced with the wrong type? – Possibly correct p/n is 191 609 721C & available from http://www.volkswagen-classic-parts.de, http://www.etkashop.com/vwcp/Golf-Caddy/Golf-2/Hand-und-Fusshebelwerk/Bremszuege/Handbremsseil.html , btw the part number is moulded onto the outer cable
Is there an internal shoe adjuster? – Yes but it is (supposedly & usually) fully automatic.
Also could the rear brake valve stick and not let fluid to the back wheels? This valve (name?) – It is called a “load sensitive Brake pressure regulator”-
seems to be missing the little return spring and was wondering if this could be causing a problem. yes if it is missing, its absence can & will cause problems, ask your VW dealer for p/n 191 612 339B tension spring, it should cost less than 5 eu
Yes, it is the Rallye/G60 Syncro one with the 3 fixing bolts,
you can just about make it out in the photo below
