Here's one on Ebay that should work and seems reasonable.Looking to buy a single 16" Bioline wheel. PM me with price and location.

Didn't catch that and you're right.Thanks but that's local pickup only. Connecticut is a bit of a drive.
That's a good tip. I took a different approach by unbolting the actuator (PITA to get the little bolts back in) My vanes were definitely sticking but I also seem to have a dead N75.Tip: Actuator clip installation
I finally got to cleaning up my turbo vanes this morning. My biggest fear was loosing the e-clip that connects the actuator to the turbo. It's darn small, and could loose it really easily.
I have a knockoff you can borrow. It gets me enough on my Beetle, but it is a knockoff and I run vcds lite. I live in eden Prairie and commute to Plymouth daily.Does anyone in the twin cities have a vag com for sale? If not, can I borrow (Rent) it or pay you to drop over to run it?
My son's Golf 2.0 gasser is shuttering terribly - I suspect it is the coil pack but I dont want to drive it to the local shop to even get a code read - the CEL is flashing. Guess I need to step up and buy the vag and share locally also but I need it in the next day or so or I send her in to get looked at (He is heading to the AF Base in Washington next week and we cant let him drive it out like this..)
Thanks
Bob
Thank you sir. I have never run the Vag software but assume for reading codes it cannot be too bad..I have a knockoff you can borrow. It gets me enough on my Beetle, but it is a knockoff and I run vcds lite. I live in eden Prairie and commute to Plymouth daily.

Unplug one coil pack at a time, when one doesn't change the shudder you've found your dead cylinder.Does anyone in the twin cities have a vag com for sale? If not, can I borrow (Rent) it or pay you to drop over to run it?

It instantly goes to 23" & quickly builds to 27. I do have VSDS. There is no limp mode happening. No codes at all.Hook up the mityvac to the inlet of the n75 and start the car. What vac do you get there? You replaced the n75, are the houses in the right order? Do you have access to a vcds or vcds lite? What is the n75 duty cycle when limp mode is cleared?

I ran the VCDS on block 11 & the ECU thinks I have Almost 3 bar of boost at idle. I suspect a faulty MAP sensor. I have a new one but I find getting to it a challenge. I wish I had 1/2 the wrenching skills of greengeeker but I'll get it done. Is removing the bumper really the easiest way to get at it?New doesn't mean good. Some old timers refer to New as Never Even Worked. Test the electrical and see what the ecu is telling it to do, then double check your hose connections. Getting two hoses crossed would do this too.

Nick, you over estimate my wrenching skills. I'll get it but it will take more than 1/2 an hour. I've already spent more time than that removing the washer bottle & re reading my Bentley manual. I'll pull the bumper tomorrow.Hi Richard, yes bumper removal is the easiest. Even with that it might take you a half hour total to r&r your map sensor.
Good to hear!I'd been having intermittent starting issues for several months now. Typically all I had to do was wait for 5 or 10 minutes and it would start right up. Well, my car finally failed to start this morning. <sigh>
I tried it again tonight when I came home from work, and it still didn't start. --Umm, this was new.
After a quick search on the ol TDI forum, I figured I'd give the 109 relay a shot.
Called the dealer - $46, Called NAPA - $18.
Took 2 minutes to swap it out, and Bingo! It fired right up.
Update, Yocum apparently sold their Holiday stores. So likely no difference in fuel at these locations compared to other Holiday's. Back to the QuikTrip truck stop for me.Not necessarily. But as many of us know, there is lots of bad fuel out there. I was specifically looking to see if they sell the Gold Plus retail anywhere. Here is their response. Lucky for me, one of the 5 locations is 3.3 miles from my house. I know I will go there from now on. Everyone else can make their own choices.
"We do not sell Gold Plus exclusively at any of our locations. Our fuel in the winter is generally seeing a typical 45-47 cetane number. The Gold Plus is definitely a few numbers higher – a great product. In the summer, we sell #2 diesel with 20% biodiesel, which inherently has higher cetane. This B20 blend will typically result in cetane ratings above 45, sometimes in the 50 range. Again, it is all dependent on the cetane of the base stock of fuel and biodiesel. In the summer, we use ECOCLEAN, which is the top detergent-based diesel additive available, built by Innospec."
