What actually fails on that piece? My release moves up/down, but the seat back is solid. Does it fail internally like the "end" snaps off?

The passenger rear seat back will not fold/move. I haven't dug too much into the reason.

Drove 1.5 hours to pick up new wheels and tires for my truck. Well, only 3 would fit inside, so #4 went in the roof. Made the trip home just fine! '][/URL]

A pair of Skar RPX65's. I'm far from an audiophile, I deferred to a buddy of mine and he said this will be lightyears ahead of what I have now. I'm sure I'll be happy.

Ordered new flywheel from IDP Ordered clutch and pressure plate from ACT Ordered new head unit and door speakers too

Forgive Doug, he can speak in uncertain terms sometimes. He has been looking for that specific hood for about 6 months without any luck. He is saying that now that he HAS one, someone will come along and say they had one the entire time and it will be much closer than the 5 hour 1 way trip.

Alright, so it COULD be glowplug related... However, there are a lot of variables here (GP voltage, software voltage, timing, loss of fuel prime, starter speed, etc). Oilhammer has mentioned what course of action you should take. At minimum, you could pull a GP and post the part number here for...

Alright, does the car start fine in the warmer months after sitting overnight? To some, there are two definitions of a cold start, overnight and overnight when the ambient air is less than 40*f.

Welcome to TDIClub! Cedar Springs is near r90sKirk. There is another guy up that way who parts out TDI's, but I can't remember his name. Post in the classifieds here with a WTB.

Another suggestion: the "end" of the rocker before the rear wheel, where the fender arch begins is another rust prone area. Along with where the rear fender arch meets the rear bumper.

Might you consider going back another 2" on the rocker cover for those of us that live in the rust belt?

I put the wagon specific Billstein HD's in my (now sold) 05 Wagon. It rode smooth if you put 200lbs of stuff in the back. Empty, it felt too stiff for my tastes.

The first one I did, I pulled the entire dash panel etc and it sucked. Are you guys pulling just the center stack and sneaking the plugs in through there?

Year/model of vehicle would help. Define "retimed injection pump" please. As noted above, it could be running away, check oil consumption. Or (if it's a rotary pump engine) your "retiming of the injection pump" could have set the IQ way too low and now you are experiencing a runaway type...

You mentioned all new filters... did you reconnect the vac line that goes to the airbox?
