A VW Jetta TDI person came and saw the car and bought it immediately. It is now gone to a new home.

Email sent to samuraitd - - 7 pictures sent. We have owned this wonderful TDI over a decade and it is a fun car to drive. I have 7 pictures that I took last evening and email them to anyone who is interested. Thanks.

This Red Jetta has been in the family for many years. My daughters drove it to our local college about 2 miles from our home. It has 201,225 miles. At 175,000 the timing belt was changed. At 180,000 a new turbo was installed. It has only had synthetic oil used in this car. It gets 50 mpg on...

Marin - Thanks! I was getting ready to leave on a trip a few months ago and my 2000 Passat car started acting up. Talked with Marin and he gave me a great suggestion. I did it and it fixed the car. I have had no problems and everything running well. It has been a few months since he fixed...

Hi, my family and I were in a massive hail storm outside Amarillo Friday evening that broke my windshield and put hailstone dents all over the top and hood of my car. Please help by suggesting a quality place to have body work done in the Fort Worth area so that I can get a quote from my...

2000 VW Passat Wagon Marin - thank you, thank you! I have been searching since 2006 for someone who I can trust and will do what they say. I have been lied to time and time again by other mechanics and delay after delay. I was depressed and discouraged and simply wanted to push the car over a...

Owner of a 1998 TDI Jetta and a 1997 TDI Jetta and am in Keene, about 10 to 15 miles south of Fort Worth.

I am missing the right read door outside black molding for a 1997 Jetta TDI. If you have that correct door molding for sale please let me know. Thanks, Alan

Is there a Right Rear Door black molding available for sale??? Please let me know. I NEED one. Thanks, Alan

The clicking sound that I heard was the crank slipping against the teeth of the belt. It should have torn it up except for the fact that it was wet with oil from the complete head that did NOT have a cam seal on it. Yeah!! It is running. I took the cam off and checked all the lifters and...

Hmmmm that is possible and I thought that, but it is not correct. Because the complete new bolt on head with cam and everything did NOT have a cam round seal, it leaked oil out onto the belt. The belt had alittle oil on it. I have rotated it several times and NO lost teeth and thus no flat spot...

Anyone else had this happen to them? Need help?

Thanks for all the replies. For the second time around, when I removed the pin, I tensioned the belt after removing the pin. I then turned the engine over three times by hand to make sure everything looked OK and that the timing all stayed exact. It was then that I put the valve cover on and...

Thanks for the reply. It was running just about 45 minutes before. I had the timing cover off to find the oil leak and discovered no seal on the end of the new cam and head. I then took care of this and then I made the mistake with the locking stud. There are no bubbles in the line and it is...

Hi, broke a timing belt. Put on a new head and replaced belts, gaskets and everything and it started right up and ran nice but was smoking from an oil leak. Found out the new head did not have a round cam gasket seal and it leaked oil out that location and onto the exhaust. Fixed that with a...

Jetta 97, I have a 1998 Jetta TDI in storage that my old mechanic could not fix. It lost power a couple of times driving from Texarkana to Dallas and put out some white smoke. I would slow down to about 20 mph and then the power would come back and I would then be able to drive about 60 mph. It...
