    Passenger door won't lock, even after replacing lock mo

    Just circling back here after I finally found a solution to my problem. I was receiving a 01812 J387 code, and just went through the dash fuse diagram and found SC12 5 amp fuse was missing, popped a new 5am fuse in and I now have a passenger door that locks and unlocks! All the...

    Passenger door won't lock, even after replacing lock mo

    2006 Jetta So I recently noticed my passenger door will not lock. All other doors lock, and all the electronics on the passenger door works. If I manually lock the lock module the door correctly shows it being locked. Initially I thought it was the door lock module, but I just got done...

    Suspension help

    I bought some rubber coil spring inserts from autozone. The ones that you snake around the middle of the spring while jacked up. Made a big difference and raised the rear a bit too

    DSG Lag caused by brake switch?

    Whoa that’s weird one. I have the ECS inserts for the the dogbone.. definitely improved responsiveness, however DSG lag after coming from a brake hold still persists. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Can low hanging sun visors be tightened up?

    More on severe lh driveaxle wobble/vibration

    That’s funny, only because I went through a similar situation with a B3000 vibrates like hell around 50-60 mph. Measured the tires and the seemed in round. Replaced almost all suspension components upper, lower, shocks, end links, and still had the damn shake and shimmy at highway speed...

    2006 TDI Turbo adjustment?

    Yes I would dare say you are correct. The worn linkages were causing more travel in my case. Eventually I got around to tightening the bolt, but I still use some safety wire to prevent too much actuation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    XTool experience YES it reads DSG temp

    Probably just how it works I have one though haven’t thought to use it to prime the system. I just popped off the return line and used a mighty vac to get air out, then after a few cranks started right up. Also helps if you fill the filter housing with diesel. Sent from my iPhone using...
