Subject: Recall Campaign SQ
Secure Enging Compartment Electrical Wiring
and Affix Vacuum Hose Routing Label
Dear Volkswagen Corrado Owner:
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of
the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Volkswagen has
determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists
in some 1992/93 model Volkswagen Corrado vehicles equipped with VR6
engine. Our records show that your car is one of the vehicles affected
by this recall.
Description of Defect
Volkswagen has found that an electrical wiring harness located in the
engine compartment may have been routed too close to a sheet metal
edge during assembly. If this happened in your car, the wiring could
be damaged due to chafing during normal operation of the vehicle.

Prolonged chaffing could result in an electrical short causing either
the engine to stall or the radiator fan to stop operating which could
cause overheating of the engine. Either condition could cause
overheating of the engine of the engine. Either condition could cause
an accident.
Additionally, an incorrect vacuum hose routing label was inadvertently
affixed in the engine compartment of your vehicle.
Remedy
Your Volkswagen retailer will re-route and secure the affected wiring
harness in the engine compartment with a new vacuum hose routing
label.

We ask that you contact the Service Department of your authorized
Volkswagen retail facility to schedule an appointment as soon as
possible. Please present the enclosed Campaign authorization form when

Removal
1) With vehicle on floor, remove plastic cap which covers
upper strut/shock retaining nuts. Remove strut/shock retaining nuts.
Slowly raise vehicle until weight is off spring. Remove bolt which
retains lower end of strut/shock absorber to axle beam mount. Raise
vehicle until strut/shock can be removed. Place strut/shock assembly
in vise.
2) Hold piston rod. Remove strut/shock retaining nut and
related components. See Fig. 1. Remove slotted nut (some models).
Remove spacer and coil spring. If coil spring is to be replaced,
ensure paint stripe color on replacement spring matches original
spring color stripe.
Installation
1) Install protective cap and tube onto shock absorber.
Install rubber buffer with small end downward. Install snap ring and
washer. Place spring into lower seat. Install upper retainer with
spacer sleeve.
2) Tighten slotted nut (some models) which retains piston
rod. Install upper mounting hardware. Tighten piston rod. To complete
installation, reverse removal procedure. Tighten bolts and nuts to
specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table at end of article.
SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY
CAUTION: When removing suspension assembly, add weight to rear of
vehicle to prevent tipping due to change in center of
gravity.
Removal
1) With vehicle on floor, disconnect upper strut/shock mount.
Raise and support vehicle. Disconnect parking brake at bracket near
axle mount.
2) Disconnect and plug brakelines. Leave flex hose attached
to suspension. Separate brake pressure regulator spring from axle beam
(if equipped). Remove nuts which retain axle beam to body.
NOTE: DO NOT install bolts and nuts fouled with undercoating. With
waxy coating on threads, true tightening torque cannot be
measured. Clean or replace bolts and nuts.
Installation
1) If axle beam mounting has been removed, adjust mounting
pad. See Fig. 2. If pad is not correctly aligned, torsional preload of
mounting bushings will be incorrect.
2) Position rear suspension on body. Install nuts retaining
axle beam to body. Raise wheel. Guide upper end of strut/shock into
body mount.
3) Connect parking brake cables. Connect brakelines. Lower
vehicle. Tighten upper strut/shock retaining nuts. Tighten all bolts
and nuts to specification. Bleed brake system.
