    Installation Hitch- Becker Radio and CD Changer

    I've finally done it. I finally installed my Becker Mexico 2340 radio and Silverstone 2660 CD changer in my 1998 Jetta. I forgot what it felt like to listen to CDs in my car. It's been beautiful. The only hitch is that the radio resets itself everytime I start (or stop) the engine and I have...

    Constant Power Loss

    Leading up to my situation; I filled up at my usual station, turned the key in the ignition and noticed the engine immediately surge and the RPMs spike - although nothing was touching the peddel. The vehicle has not been the same since. Going up a local mountian was unbearable. I took it to a...

    I Smell Bologna

    I want to make sure my vehicle is properly diagnosed. Without a VAG-COM tool, I know that would be difficult, but in my situation, hopefully not impossible. Here's the deal, I have a 1998 VW Jetta TDI with 111,000 miles. Everything was running smoothly (other than my fuel consumption seemed...

    Control Unit is Shot

    Dutch, I took the car into the dealership on Saturday morning. They reset the code that afternoon. Sunday evening the code came back on (after about 70 miles worth of driving). I thought nothing of it since the service techs were not able to give me a good reason of why it came on in the...

    Control Unit is Shot

    The check engine light on my 1998 Jetta TDI came on over the weekend. I took it to the dealer to have them run a diagonistic. They "found" the code for the control unit faulty and decided to clear it. I go about 70 miles of a 180 mile commute when everything goes haywire - the check engine...
