I considered all options. Ticket (Detroit to Salt Lake) + hotel + Uhaul to tow home($2K) = xxx Auto shipping transport range $1500 - $1800 Fly there and fix it. Cheapest method. It has too many unexpected outcomes. Not the proper tools, place to work at, blah blah blah. I can't sell this...

I can do the repair, but I am in MI. The car is in Utah. I may hath to pay the $2000 to ship the car.

I am hoping to find a TDi enthusiast mechanic in Logan Utah to replace my cable shifting tower. One cable is broken. I can't find any shop even the dealer to do it. I swapped in the 5 speed to replace the bad auto tranny. 5/20/2023

Run without both, O ring and the rod.

Thanks all for the comments. I discovered that I installed the oil filter but I did not put back that plastic rod thru the filter. This is the plastic rod with the small O ring. Now I understand how important that small O ring.

2001 Golf TDI alert light. I will explain the repair work I’ve done in sequence in the order I did it in the last two weeks before I encounter the problem. [low oil pressure] Replaced clutch. Pulled and clean oil pan and use caulking material all around it. [could the gasket material clog...

I have a lot of parts. Let me know specifically what are you looking for

What did you find out with the voltage ? Did you change it with the wiper movement? Does that affect the performance?

486 - You are a genius and a scholar. Your suggestion fix the problem. To simply put it in text for those who will search for this in the future. Problem, terrible surge and smoke like hell after I installed a 10 mm pump into an automatic 2001 Golf. The smoke was bad enough if you follow me you...

I often wonder about that. I will do the hammer mod and report back tomorrow. Thanks for the suggestion.

I tried your suggestion last night, removing the inlet tube from the intercooler into the EGR valve. Now the turbo is out of the circuit. It still surge and smoke however there was a difference. It will take about 25 seconds of surge and RPM built up. In every surge the RPM getting higher than...

Did you installed the 10mm pump into our automatic 1.9TDi. I did and it smoke like hell and the engine surge like crazy

The pump I installed is a 10mm from a 5 speed. The Golf was an automatic with the 11mm. So I am replacing a 11mm with a 10 mm. Do I need to adjust the fuel?

I have a 2001 Golf with 249K miles. I swapped in a 5 speed. I rebuilt the turbo because it was smoked, not much, on first and second gear. I rebuilt the turbo by replacing the CHRA with a Dorman cartridge from Rockauto, [It was still Chinese CHRA after I opened the box]. There was quite a bit of...

Is your pump and nozzle does not work? I have both but why replacing them in the first place.

Hi R-Truck, how or what clue did you use to attach the leather insert to the rear Gold door panel?

EUH swap I swapped in an EUH and mate it to my ALH. I have difficulty with reverse, 3rd and 5 gear. I use an EGR shift tower with the EUH. Do you think that is why I have difficulty with my reverse, 3rd and 5th gear?

What do you do with the speed sensor? The EGR/EBJ have speed sensor. The EUH does not have speed sensor to mate it to a ALH engine? How did you solve that problem?

I have a 2001 TDi Golf with fail automatic transmission. It has reverse but no forward gears. I decided to swap in a 5 speed manual transmission. I found the EUH (5 speed manual) transmission from a 2004 Jetta TDi. All of the materials I have read stated it will work. So I am OK with that...
