Went out in the hotel parking lot and messed with it a bit more. When I started it the dash light was on. I popped the hood and hit the belt with some light. The tensioner was bouncing a bit but not bad. Confirmed with meter that battery wasn't getting any charge. Looked into the back vents on...

Yeah I'm gonna go for just the pulley. Alternator seems to operate fine beyond what I think is the failing pulley. We will be tenting at the camp ground there at the North Rim so the car will just be a fancy lock box most of the time. If I can get a part into the Kanab NAPA and a local...

Thanks for the help guys. Here's where I am at now on the situation. We departed Colo Springs this morning since we had to be in Kanab Utah by tonight. Through the day today I got very little smoke during acceleration but the battery light issue has gotten worse. From what I can tell I seem to...

Am driving from Missouri to Grand Canyon via Colorado Springs this weekend. Am in Colorado Springs currently and am experiencing issues with my 2001 Jetta (146,000 ALH, timing belt changed 20K ago). Here's the symptoms: During acceleration the car feels very sluggish and if engine isn't at...

I'm not sure about the internal politics of the forum but I will firmly back and attend a STL located fest! Viva STL!

Noooooooooo! Missed a semi-local GTG dang it! Gotta keep my eyes open for the next one!

Hmmm was thinking there was quite a few more parts than that. But thanks for the ones listed...got them noted down.

I've got a 1999.5 Jetta and as the years have gone on I have been having to replace more and more items. I'm never 100% sure that a part I look for from a newer MKIV is going to be compatible with the kinda screwy 99.5. I'd like to compile a list of parts that come stock in the 99.5 that arent...

Ouch...I just called our local upholstery place and the lady there quoted me $160 and they would remove and reinstall. Wonder why no one there would touch yours. Is there something about Jetta headliners that cause repeat problems?

Never mind....found answers :)

Production date....not sure. I'll take a peek at the door sticker and check what it has to say tomorrow morning.

Hmmm see now I'm even more curious. My vin starts with 3 so by that it's Mexican built. But I have a hard time believing a German coin could make it's way under the felt and to the middle of the back passenger footwell after it was assembled....and I can't imagine it was placed there by a...

Not sure on the value of it....gonna try and look it up some time. This was a 1979 Mint mark J. The wheat side was in good condition. The side that was down was pretty oxidized. I had always though this car was manufactured in Mexico....maybe part of it is built in Germany and shipped to Mexico?

Left the window down in my Jetta earlier this week and was lucky enough that we got about 2 inches of rain that night. Anyways to dry everything out I stripped out the seats, carpet and sound deadening felt. Underneath the sound material in the back passenger seat I found a 10 Pfennig German...

Shift box, shift tower and linkages available? Cost? Was your shifter pretty tight when the car died?

What's the condition on the floormats? Been so long since I had mine I can't remember if those plastic snaps are broke out on yours or are still fine.

PM sent

Sent you a PM. There's an issue with what was shipped....

Do you happen to have a black center console piece that goes around the shifter and also has the ashtray and door? If so how much?
