    Sold car - Parts

    Hey man, what axles you have on there? Think both CV joints on mine might be busted so just want to get a different set.

    Mk4 appreciation thread

    Completely stock. That's probably why the original turbo is still in there lol. I was thinking of putting in a Stage 1 tune and maybeeeee swapping out the 5th gear to like a .700 gear, but undecided yet. It would just help with RPM on freeway (I live in a big city with lots of freeways) and more...

    Mk4 appreciation thread

    I've owned my '03 Golf for over 3.5 years now, and bought it at 190k miles from the original owner. I just did a "mini" loop here in California through the Sierra, and this car handled it like a dream. Went up to 8k+ feet over many mountain passes on highway 395 and others (highway 88 near...

    2001 VW Golf TDI Partout

    OP, what about the EGR valve on this thing? Is it leaking oil through that small hole? Or did you delete it altogether? Might be interested in it too if available.

    SOLD: 2006 V10 Touareg 185k - San Diego, CA - $1500

    Bought a project V10 Touareg 2 months ago, 185k miles, right tandem pump was leaking. I decided to do the tandem pump change with the engine in place (it's possible). I started the engine with almost everything back in place (just the air intakes off), and I must have ripped some sort of coolant...

    WTB .681 5th gear for an 02J transmission

    Sorry I completely missed that you responded to my request. Unfortunately that's the .658 gear you have... a little too low for what I am looking for.

    WTB .681 5th gear for an 02J transmission

    Posting this here because as many of you probably know, this specific gear ratio has been discontinued for awhile... One was posted here several months back; guy had it lying around and never installed it. Looking for something in similar condition. I'd even consider one that's gotten 10k or...

    Tulsa, OK would be the place to go then. Very centrally located along the old Route 66.

    New California smog checks.......

    He lives in Tuolumne County now, but was living here in San Diego when he was going through the whole debacle of trying to get it registered here in CA. And like I said, car is gone now thanks to a deer, so doesn't matter anymore lol. Nice to see you still around here Matt! Hope OR is treating...

    New California smog checks.......

    I only know about registering it in AZ because my old boss did that with his 2003 Boxster that didn't have the correct cat in it that was CARB approved. He bought it in Vegas where it was obviously Nevada registered. Dumbest part was that even with the non-CARB approved cat, he STILL passed...

    New California smog checks.......

    Fellow CA residents, there are ways to get around this. Specifically if you live in SoCal, make a drive out to Yuma or Kingman and get your TDI registered in AZ. No smog check there. Sure it's a few hoops to jump through, but it's doable. Registering in South Dakota is possible too.

    feeler: bay area dyno day, any takers?

    I might want to come with my BONE STOCK mk4 just to dyno it! I've been wanting to drive up to NorCal... I've heard and seen pics that the hills in East Bay are PEAK Windows XP right now and was maybe going to do a solo driving trip up there!

    Literally never been to Kansas either. This suggestion was purely cause it's pretty much the middle state in the lower 48.

    2023 TDIfest/GTG discussion thread

    The thought of being in Lebanon, KS is a good in order for everyone to have a chance to show up, but true that it's not feasible with how small of a town it is. However, we can go to a bigger town not too far, like Wichita, and meet there. Thoughts?
