Your listing goes to a Golf TDI, thought this was for a Touareg TDI AWD?

Ended up going with Raxle and never looking back. OEM swap out for Raxle made sense for the miles to come and not being cheap with a questionable after market set.

Since installing my CAT filter setup years ago I just used the OEM fuel line that has a transparent section integrated into it. Isn't that enough? I can check on any fuel line bubble instantly by looking at that section. Never had any issue and I have only gone through two filter elements in...

How about axles bearings ? How old are they?

I think the key to better cooling with these is the vented fender liner. I run a Godspeed but modded it by tapping out and threading the hole for screwing in a drain valve in the low corner. Works great too and never had it blow out.

Never thought of them as being a HP thingy. Sure smooths out the rotational vibrations though so worth it for that alone.

Photo link is 404, not found! Did you pull em off?

What about the GRC axles made in France? Sold as OEM but I have never heard of them before.

Also running the same deAuto LED bulbs. No problems now for the last eight years. Just use the OEM bulbs for turn signals and the Phillips long life bulb does the trick.

They have marketed the Fluidampr crank pulley for the MkIV TDI engines. If the pulley is the same on your 2006 (I have no idea if they are) it should work. I have one on our 2000 Golf TDI and another was installed on the 2003 Golf R-TDI that was later sold but is still on the road. Both...

Thanks for the details, good to know of someone up north!

There is a small shop north in Bellingham but I have forgotten the name! Or, you can go south and try Matthew at Zahntech in Redmond, they are super and knowledgeable.

GTD1756VRK purchased from Gottuned over two years ago. Great turbo, runs circles around the 1722 I had previously. Kept the Bosio 502s' but had them cleaned up and tested just for sure. Run RC4 which is conservative for this setup but I know the boost point, the wife drives the lower end so...

TDI mods, items and hacks for the year!

You guys are lucky. Go even further north and it gets even harder to find. Washington state in particular is slowly loosing touch with sources.

And was there any fuel stabilizer added to it before storage?

If you don't mind driving to Redmond Matthew at Zahntech is great.

Totally agree with Max on this. The newer turbos from these guys in Poland are sweet units and wow do they spin! You can't go wrong and an easy upgrade...but you might run it a bit before deciding if you need tune updating...

You can go in with VCDS software and reset the glow period to a longer sequence. You might also want to check the harness and the glow plugs to make sure you are getting the proper glow, no buggered plug or loss of voltage.
