Update, bad throwout bearing.

Forgot to update, the oil pump was worn. From the increased amount of play it didnt prime on idle, u needed to rev it up so it can prime. Changed the oil pump no problems.

I just installed a brand new vacuum pump, because on the old one the white part with one way valve broke. Symptoms didn't change regarding to oil pressure light. What to look for when looking at the oil pump shaft? Havent seen anything alarming.

So I have a '87 Passat with 1.6 td. Sometimes when I start the engine the oil pressure light comes on and also no vacuum(stiff brake pedal). As soon as I rev it oil light goes away and I get vacuum (soft pedal) and no problems after that. Doesn't matter if engine is cold or hot. Does vacuum...

So i still havent found the source of the noise. I did some research and guys have similar noise with the input shaft bearing being bad. But they have that noise in all of the rev range. I'll try checking out the input shaft bearing, lucky me on this transmission the input shaft bearing is in...

Funny thing they were made in china until 2012 under the name Santana, which is also used I think in south america. They are made on the Audi 80 b2 platform or for you guys in USA Audi 4000.

Thanks man!

Here is a visual representation that hopefully helps understand that being in neutral doesn't really matter when there is play in diff. Hopefully that's not the case for you.

There is always a noise when rocking wheel front back, it is connected to the differential. But there should be little play. Also banging noise when letting off throttle and then again flooring it could be due to worn inner joints or a worn differential. Also if it vibrates when driving it is a...

I've seen an Alfa Romeo 147 spread open when we had the lock carrier removed. Basically it had been in a severe accident and someone repaired most of it but didn't straighten the frame. So he had the front rails pulled in somehow just enough to put the lock carrier, and sold it like that.

There isnt a pivot ball. Cable goes to the lever on the trans. and that lever is connected to the shaft that goes through the bell housing. When looking in the bell housing the shaft is above the input shaft, and it has two arms pointing down on each side the input shaft. And on those arms throw...

'87 1.6TD, I replaced flywheel, clutch plate, clutch pressure plate, pilot bearing and throw out bearing, along with a good used transmission. So now i have a grinding noise at idle if i bring up rpms by just a little bit it stops, or when i press down on the clutch pedal. As soon as you start...

Could be the dmf. Does it bang when turning the car off. If so that's probably it. I had a vibration when taking off only, and sometime later started shaking very bad at 1200 to 1600 rpm in gear out of gear, when stopped when moving, also when engine off and moving, it was the pressure plate.

So here is my Passat although not a TDI but close :D. It has been in our family for more than 20 years. It originally came with 1.6 td 51kw, but someone long time ago swapped it for a regular 1.6 diesel from I'm guessing golf mk1 (mechanical lifters). Some months ago I bought a 1.6 td 51kw...
