I second your recommendation. I have used Roman for years and won't go to anyone else now. He's the only reason my car is still on the road! He saved me after a crappy mechanic did a manual trans swap with unknown parts. I then had him rebuild my suspension. 3 years later I needed a TB, new...

Bought a 02J trans swap from Ksmoker (Kyle Smoker of Prospect, VA cell: (434) 414-8724) and assisted him in a 2 day 01m to 02J trans swap. Also acted as his runner to get parts to complete the swap.

mikey141414 kindly replied to my inquiry about how this clear-coat-on-plastic-headlights process had fared for him:
I have kind of gotten out of the TDi game and justed logged in today to put my wifes car up for sale.
I actually sold my black jetta a little over a year ago and the lights were...
Hi tongsli, I bought a set of these off my mechanic and installed them recently. They use a H1 bulb. He bought them off someone on a forum, so said he doesn't know the source. Mine came fitted with 55w bulbs, what about yours? Do you know if the H1 100w bulbs which are ca. 1 cm longer would fit...
I did a manual swap with an 02J out of a donor with 240k miles on it, this donor car had thrown a rod and when we opened it up it had a race clutch installed. I have no idea if that trans was original to the car or was part of the upgrades, it was a DQY btw. We filled it with Synchomesh found at...
Good prices on parts!
I had a good parts buying experience and got good prices from Roman of Automotive Consulting by Roman, aka: GotEuroCorrado here on TDIclub. His clutch kit is a good value and feels very much like a factory DMF when it's actually stronger than the stock set-up, a SMF and...
Does anyone have experience with the units from YaTour? The latest models have integrated bluetooth modules.

I have often thought that the diesel gate deception has very similar parallels to Lance Armstrong's doping scandal. It came almost out of nowhere, has been going on for years, a lie too big to let out of the bag, too many people would be let down and a brand boosted out of the product of that...
I had called a dealer, they took down my # and had a region supervisor call me (or something like that).
I was told I'd have to leave the car for the day, wile it was looked t. Sionce it was a small dealer I asked where the body shop was and they said it was 15 miles away and they would tow my...

Thanks for that Map @SoaceMunky
My current TC does lock up, just not when the ATF temp gets too hot (ca. 115c and up) I saw the receipt of what my PO paid for a TC replacement. I could get the 5 speed installed for that and take a vacation! I am not able to do a 5 speed swap or a TC swap myself.
I looked at the IPT TC and was...
Did you look into getting the rust fixed on the VW 12 year rust warranty? Is the paint original?
The dealer will check the pain thickness and if it's original will honor the rust repairs for free. I had my 2 front fenders replaced in 2013 on my 2002 Jetta wagon, just in time.
I am the 3rd owner of a nice 02 Jettawagon GLS. The trans had been rebuilt (&rebuilt VB) by owner #1 @90k because it was locked up in reverse.
@107k the 2nd owner had to replace the TC.
I bought it with 135k 4 years ago and it was having TCC lock issues.
Fluid changed 2 years ago ca. 155k and...
