Hi, My Clutch recently gave up the ghost with a clunk when i pushed the pedal down. The pedal depressed straight to the floor and failed to return. I assumed the cable had snapped but on closer inspection the cable is intact. Does anyone know of any tests that may tell me what has gone wrong? ...

Hi, I have a Golf GTi Mreg Uk number plate, its the 2.0 8 valve. Does anybody, know, what would cause the 1st gear, to almost jump into gear? The other gears are fine. The clutch was replaced 5 months ago. It seems to randomly happen,or it seems like its random. Would it be the gearbox, at all ?

As in Lupo/Polo sized VWs or the Yaris by Toyota etc. Not everybody needs a big F150 or SUV, and some are not just going to get a hybrid car, nor deal with (bio)diesel as an alternative. However, there seems to be a market for fuel economy provided by a smaller footprint 'Citi' or Metro-Car, one...

I'd like to find a junkyard to start getting some parts from. Seats / Vent Windows / etc. Does anyone know of a good one for rabbits and cabriolets ( mine is a 82 rabbit convertible ) in the Seattle area ( King, Snohomish, Pierce counties ) In general, is this a cheaper route than buying stuff...

Just got a vintage diesel Golf. I have posted answers here before but now a question: My rear plate lights are out. Does anyone know where the harness is connected to the gray and brown taillight circuit for the plate lights. May have to rewire it. Man was it hard to get a diesel with these gas...

I have a 99.5 Mk IV Golf with 2.0, auto. Of late the ABS light has come on as soon as the car goes faster than 13mph (or so). The dealer pulled the vag code 01276, which refers to an intermittant problem with the ABS pump or ABS controller. From the dealer the parts cost >$600 each. (1) I'm new...

My 1997 Jetta GL (automatic) has a touchy trunk lock. Most likely you're familiar with the way this lock works, but I'll recap for those of you who might need a refresher course. If the lock itself is aligned vertically then a key should be required to open the trunk (insert key, turn right ,...

I've got an 84 Rabbit that I purchased last December. It is completely missing its horn. Unfortunately, Bentley doesn't really show me much regarding the exact mounting of the horn. When I purchased the rabbit, the guy gave me a new horn, but said I would need to purchase the proper mounting...

Posted previously as 87 16V running rough. After finally running a compression, suspected that the head gasket was blown between 3 & 4 as the pressure was only 55 psi on both. This was proven true after removing the head. Any words of wisdom on replacing the head gasket? It was replaced...

Trying to find some useful information about a problem my '95 Golf Sport has had for about it's whole life..... When it's raining out or after it has rained, anytime of the year, my motor will just not run well until it's warm -- at which time it you wouldn't know there was a problem at all. It...

The rear brake shoes grind during wet weather. Sounds like gravel in the drums. It clears up if I activate the brakes for 15 - 20 seconds, but recurs if it sits for an hour or so. No evidence of grinding in dry conditions. The dealer says it is a common problem, because of the shoe...

Hi, When I start the car the display of the climatronic air-con flashes for a few seconds, which I believe indicates a fault with the air con. The garage that I go to have told me that in this case it is a pressure sensor and a flap motor that need replacing. They also said that whilst the parts...
