Yes MIT, I believe that is the one I am talking about.

If you are referring to my post, then yes... I got Delvac 1 5W-40.

I decided to take a stroll around town one day. I happened to stop at a Mobil gas station with a service station and asked them if they carried Delvac. They had Delvac in storage, they order it for one of their customers. The manager sold me a case of Delvac for 72.00!

Kanuckster: I have had that noise occuring for the past 15-20,000 miles now! I currently have 75,000 miles on my vehicle and have not yet replaced the timing belt. I highly doubt that you needed a new TB and related parts because of that very common noise that many VW TDI's encounter when wet...

Anyone interested in starting a list of southeastern/south shore massachusetts diesel stations? There is a Gulf station in Weymouth, MA with Premium, DieselSelect with a cetane rating of 45 (posted on pump). I am very happy with this diesel, fairly pricey (1.71/gallon) but well worth it in my...

I need to replace my entire assembly, wiring and all. The black wire is completely fried, my bulb is constantly loose and needs adjustment to work and my highbeam does not work. This is all on the right headlight. Any ideas on what to do? Any directions on replacing the wiring, harness, etc.

Volkswagen Gallery in Norwood, MA and Paul Clark in Brockton, MA are pretty good. But, again... I dont recommend going to dealers. If you want a good mechanic, I suggest going to Brian's Garage in Needham, MA. Look him up, he has a webpage. www.briansgarage.com

I have that same problem. I am using Royal Purple 75W-90 (stupid mistake) and will be switching to Redline MTL this weekend. Let me know what your outcome is.

I have 75,000 miles on my original belt.

When I hit my brakes at high speeds, highway especially, my steering wheel shakes ALOT and the front end of the vehicle shakes. I recently replaced the factory rotors with Zimmerman cross-drilled rotors. The dealer and various brake places are telling me that my rotors are probably warped, no...

I have one brand new, never opened bottle of Royal Purple 75W-90 transmission oil. I will mail it to anyone that wants it... you only have to pay for shipping - thats it! Each bottle costs approx. $12.00

Is the serpentine belt and tensioner replaced when the timing belt gets done? I still havent done my timing belt and am way over due. I know... im on thin ice.

How do you check the "o-ring seating"? I just recently replaced my MAF with a 2.0 MAF. I also believe that I have problems with the glow plugs. I have a CEL, two codes - 1 for MAF, and 1 for glow plugs. Since I just replaced the MAF, I am assuming that the CEL is now for the glow plugs...

I changed the transmission fluid at around 70,000 miles and the car has been shifting horribly since then. I realize that it was my stupid mistake to use a 75W-90 oil and will soon be switching to Redline MTL. The dealer claims that the transmission fluid should never need to be replaced...

This morning, when i started up the car... the rpm's were fluttering like crazy. up, down, up, down between 800 - 1100 rpms. Finally, after warming up a bit, the rpms settled in the normal 900 range. I drove approximately 1 hour to work today, on the highway. The whole time driving, the car...

Mine has been doing that for a while. Let me know what the outcome is.....

Changing the oil in a 99.5 jetta tdi manual should be the same as changing the oil in a 2000 jetta tdi automatic correct? Is there any difference on what needs or should be done when changing the oil in comparison? I have a 99.5 jetta tdi manual and I will be changing the oil in my moms car for...

I recently switched to Royal Purple 75W-90 because I could not find Redline and I have heard good things about Royal Purple. Boy was that a stupid mistake. 75W-90 is waaaaay too thick for the winter (massachusetts). I am haveing extreme difficulties putting the car into 1st and especially...
