    Hard first crank daily on 2014 Jetta CJAA (stock)

    Are you saying it cranks slow? I can't say I've seen it on a newer car, 2014 is newer to me, but I would say a failing starter. On the earlier cars, that's how they act up, slow crank on the first start of the day.

    WTB NEW BEETLE WHEEL

    Thanks for looking. Take a look at the yard and see what that looks like. I am going to be very picky as the one I want to replace isn't terrible. In the end I'll probably get a refinished one, and hope for the best there too, but thought I would see what's out there.

    We are having a fund-raising event on July 27th here in Sunbury PA. It will benefit three local dog rescues. I'll be busy with the event, so I won't be organizing any TDI activities. Maybe I could do some small prizes for furthest traveled or something if someone want to try to organize...

    WTB NEW BEETLE WHEEL

    I'm looking for a super nice aluminum wheel for my 98. It's the standard aluminum wheel that most all of them had. The part numbers are 1C0601025A and 1C0601025D It would probably have to be close to central PA to be worthwhile.

    ///// 1981 VW Rabbit Pick up - What to look out for / value? /////

    I saw the thread title and thought the first reply had better be strut towers. I had one in the early 90's and that was a problem then.

    Amber brake pad light

    I think the cure here is to connect the two wires together that go to the pad to turn out the light. If you think it has to look intact for your inspection tape it up so it looks complete to the pad.

    I would agree that the best chance of success here would be a new valve cover.

    I just added the valve cover for CKRA Passats. I have the cover alone and also with the injector bolts and injector seals. I also rent the tool to remove the cam seal if you're going all out to fix your leaky Passat...

    These cars are starting to get a little old.

    I wonder if that is their way of making sure it's not your daily driver. You would have to have something else to drive for that month.

    You mean like it seems like there is one every day?

    These cars are starting to get a little old.

    In 1988 or so I restored a 59 Beetle. It was rusted and beat, I had the body off the pan and fixed everything and it was pretty nice when I was done. At thirtyish years old it seemed ancient at the time. I was after all, driving pretty hot 77 Rabbit as my daily driver, so the bug was old tech...
