    Rim help - mine split in 2.

    As for it being common it's not. My father was a cop of 43 years and my mechanic of 39 have never seen this. Nor the caa tow driver who changed my tire. Thank god I lifted the car as I would have taken out the oil pan.

    Rim help - mine split in 2.

    So driving to work I hit a big rock. Blew my front tire instantly at high speed. Got the car over to the side of the road, called caa. When the pulled the tire off, the front of my allow rim literally fell off like a hub cap!!! It looked like someone cut it off it was very clean. This can't be...

    LIFTING a mk7 TDI Sportwagen thread

    Yes it did - but I had cv joint issues. When I replaced my springs, my cv left joint was leaking. So they replaced it with a non oem one - it lasted 2 weeks, drove like crap. After fishing out my originals (long story short they replaced right one to) putting the right oem one back in, and then...

    Lifted my golf wagon - help needed!!!

    Great news!!! My Mechanic tried a different after market axel (thicker more robust) and it worked!!! Also they recovered my old axels and replaced the after market one with my original vw axel and refunded me for the swaps. Yes I have an after market axel in but no more vibration!!! Runs silky...

    Lifted my golf wagon - help needed!!!

    Crap, yeah both of my OE axels are recycled. Maybe I should pony up and order new ones install those before replacing the shocks?

    Lifted my golf wagon - help needed!!!

    I love the height, I don't like how stiff it now rides. But ill deal with it to keep the height. Would cheaper axels drive different? There is a definite wobble and certain points in the acceleration. Smooth at high speed. The lift I think is more aggressive then 2 inches, probably closer to 3.

    Lifted my golf wagon - help needed!!!

    I'll ask my mechanic before I do anything. It all started when he put on a new left axel as the boot was ripped and they don't replace the boot. Both axels have been replaced, I'm assuming with non oem parts.

    Lifted my golf wagon - help needed!!!

    So, as my thread below has stated I put ID parts 2 inch lift springs to replace my broken springs. Looks great, awesome height...too much height. There is a low power drive train wobble, that's annoying, and turns out is wearing the left drive axel prematurely. Mechanics think the new angle is...

    Finally lifted my golf wagon

    Also getting second axle replaced on Tuesday. Hope that takes out the low speed wobble. It's fine on the highway. I had a 4 wheel tire alignment done, also like a noob I didn't get them to balance my tires. So I'm going to thus time. Height wise it's awesome, and now that I've done this I've...

    Liking my jsw... but...

    I recently bought a GSW, this being my 5th diesel. I've been out of the diesel game for 8 years, and having missed my vw I came back. I kinda regret it. The millage isnt what I thought it would be and it's been to the shop 3 times, towed once. I've owned it for a month. Issues I think are now...
