Oil pressure problem by Bill Leary
The car is a 1987 16 valve Scirocco. When the engine gets up to operating temperature, and it's run between 2200 and 2800 RPM the oil pressure warning activates. Get it above 2800, it shuts up. If it falls below 2800, it activates again. Gun it, to get it above 2800, then shift so it's...

Cruise control won't maintain constant speed above 60 mph - it surges. New fuel filter; fuel pressure is 65 psi (4.5 bar) at 4K rpm; new plugs. I'm thinking coil pack? throttle body? Any help appreciated. TIA. Steve

Where has everyone gone? by tonyw
Hi, rec.autos.makers.vw.watercooled used to be quite an active group. Where has the discussion moved to? When I search for alternative groups for watercooled VWs, I find mostly very narrow groups that, for instance discuss modifications, or discuss just one model of VW, rather than the more...

95 Jetta Waterleak by Dave[_69_]
I have a 95 Jetta. It accumulates rain water behind the driver's seat. I'm guessing that this may be due to a plugged up drain for the sunroof. What's the best way to clean it out? Thanks, Dave

2000 Passat (2.0 V6) Has Sludge by AABob
Symptoms: 1. Smelly exhaust. 2. CEL on. 3. "STOP ENGINE NOW" warning every once in a while. 4. Rough idle. I looked in the hole where the oil filler cap goes. There's a dark brown gel all over everything. I think this is sludge. I've had this car since new. I have the car serviced regularly

We've had our '90 Golf (GL 4Dr Wolfsburg 1.8 manual) for 11 years and 100,000 miles (It has 162,000). It runs great for its age (20!). I've taken care of it and used good gas. It's still fun to drive and has lots of power- especially in the middle band. Lately it's been burning oil- about a...
