Have any ideas for me? Recently during heavy rains my '02 Passat 1.8T
gets water in the crank case. When I start the car it produces a lot
of steam from the exhaust and will not run properly. This is the

Nathan
Hello folks,
I have an '85 GTI with an '87 16v engine that won't start. It sat for

While the problem really could be anything, there are two...

Can anyone recommend or point me to a way to polish up the plastic headlight

'01 Passat Tie rod end boots by
Chuck Tribolet
The rubber boots on my GF's ;01 Passat wagon are torn. The dealer's answer is to replace the whole tie rod end (which of course
implies a partial realignment) when all that's bad is the boot. Is there any source for just the boot?

Seemed odd to me, but I guess it's really vw (I got it as unsolicited email
but VW might still have my email address because of my GTI))

I mean supporting welfare parasites and fraudulent government's SSN

R32 problems by
Norman Billingham
I have a brand new Golf R32 bought in July, here in the UK. Since I got it,
it has now spent more time in the dealers' workshop than in my garage and
I've done more miles in loan cars than in my own. The problem is a random
electronic failure which sometimes causes the immobiliser to refuse to...
