Hello everybody,I'm new to this metod of communicating so if i make any mistakes i apologise in advance. I am having problems with my gearbox in my 1996 n reg Sharan. It's only done 34000 miles but has started to misbehave when changing between 2nd and 3rd. It seems to give a rev after disengaging...

I will have a 1.8 digifant engine for sale shortly. I was just wondering if there was any interest in this sort of thing. If you are interested you can hear it run before I take it out of the car, hell you can even take it for a spin. I'm looking for $150 CDN. I will take it out, you take it...

After a fresh snow my right control arm met it's fate with a curb. I have 2 parts cars, but they're 3 hours away. parts4vws has new ones w/bushings for $45.00 + S&H. I was hoping that someone had one here for sale. It doesn't need to be pretty. Just a A2 right control arm with bushings. It's...

I purchased a 99 Passat recently. 2.8L V6 5 speed. 49K miles. The car ran great, I loved it. Since it was close to 50K miles, I decided to get maintenance done, and took it to Stevens Creek Volkswagen, in Santa Clara, CA. They kept my car for 2 days, and now after spending more than $1000, it...

Have a 2000 Passat. The flasher relay has developed a mind of its own, and is clicking whenever it darned well feels like it. When the right turn signal is on and it turns off, the relay sometimes clicks for an extra couple of seconds. But the light on the dash and the bulb outside are not...

Thanks to all who replied to my post about a 97 Jetta TD. I passed on it as it was about 4K overpriced! On one of the worst days of the year for rain, the wipers on my 93 Golf decided to pack it in. They move really slow on the slower speeds, but as soon as I put them to high, the fuse (20A)...

It's probably just me, but the upcoming Jetta (most recent auto mags have pics) has to be one of the WORST VW designs to come down the pike in a long time. I mean, styling inspiration via Corolla? How more mundane and boring can a car get than that? I'm not much of a fan of the newest Golf...

Hello All, I am the proud owner of a 2000 Cabrio. I have just a little over 79k miles and it is still going good for the most part. up till now I have been going to the dealer for all my work. I want to look into other options as I have some work that needs done and I cringe a little when I take...

I just did a clutch job on a 91 Jetta. Everything went well (have done many of these) after s few days the clutch started to go out of adjustment. It now is impossible to get into gear while the car is running, (grinds). Do these self adjusting clutch cables go bad? This one doesn't seem broken....

Was driving it at 55 mph, and the car just died! It won't start, and we disconnected the batterie and then reconnected it, and now the alarm keeps going off. Got any ideas? Thanks!

Hello, Does anyone know if a head off a 1.8 mk2 Golf will fit onto a 1.6? Is the a difference in Valve sizes? Thanks everyone Malr1

This guy is selling a really nice polished intake, any idea what he used to get it that Shinny? I would love to do that to mine. if you look at the pic it always looks chrome. any idea would be helpful, the link to see the pic below. Ebay Item number:...

I am replacing the servo seal on my 89 Jetta. I can not push the servo back in far enough to install the cover. I am thinking there must be a certain trick/hint. Thanks! Paul '89 Jetta

Does anybody know where I might find a single carburetor intake manifold that will fit a 1984-85 1.8 liter water cooled Jetta/Golf engine. I will need to be able to modify it for a side draft carburetor in an off road application. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I understand they used to be...

HI I've just replaced the cylinder head gasket on my 91 polo 1300.All went quite smoothly until I discovered a crack in the thermo housing-that strange octopus type plastic matrix thingy. Taking the temp sensors out was easy enough, pull clips out and remove them but- Ye Gods -trying to slide them...

I have owned my 99 VW Passat 1.8 T for about 2 years now. Bought it used (at 50K) under the VW Certified Preowned program. I now have about 88K and am thinking about selling it to a relative, just because I am interested in getting something new. It's actually been a good car -- just a very...

The other morning I snapped the passenger side mirror off of my 01 Jetta Wolfsburg after hitting my own trashcan that was sitting at the end of my driveway (DOH!). Upon further inspection, there was no exterior damage to the mirror, however the metal hinge that sits in the housing sheared off...

Hi to all I've been having problems with the remote control alarm/immobiliser fob on my 1994 VW Golf 1.8 Driver. The alarm/immobiliser is the factory fitted one that came as an extra on the mk 3s. I have found a new fob on ebay and was wondering how to reprogramme it so that it will...

Question, I've had VW Diesels for many years, this one, a 2004 Jetta TDI Auto really wont produce much heat in the cab when temperature is down around zero F (-18C) or colder. There is a little heat, and some does eventually comes, but, not what I'd like. My98 Jetta TDI (Standard) produces all...
