Rear Shocks by
Pat[_4_]
I had a sticking rear shock on my 85 Jetta GL 1.8L, so I ordered up a
set of Sachs replacement shocks. They came without any rubber parts,
and I discovered this at 9 at night in a borrowed garage, so I
carefully removed the old shocks (a set of YKB's). This involved
removing three thin nuts on each...

tire size and drive ratio by
Lanning
If I change from the stock 225-40-18 tires to 225-35-18 would I notice a
significant improvement in the launch? That change would amount to the
speedometer reading 103.7 mph instead of 100 mph, and would multiply any
drive ratio by 1.037 or very close to that. For instance, first gear would
go...

(8v, manual trans) and I get a quiet scratchy/electrical

Sticky Shifting by
Ears
I've been having trouble shifting my 5-sp. 1990 Golf lately. It just
feels sticky, like the shift lever doesn't want to go into gear. I
notice it most right off the freeway, when I'm back in town and
shifting more. Would a trans. fluid change take care of this?

How badly sandblasted are my headlamp covers? by
Bert Hyman
Driving into the rising sun this morning, I was reminded of how badly
pitted the windshield of my '02 Passat is.
Then I got to thinking how bad the plastic covers on my headlamps
must be. Looking at them in daylight didn't show me much; has
anybody ever had them get so bad that they felt a need...
