    (Sold): Michelin X-Ice3 Winter Tires w/steel wheels 195/65-15 (Set of 4) - $200 - New London PA

    4 Michelin X-Ice3 tires mounted on steel wheels from my MKV Jetta TDI. 195/65-R15. $200 for all 4. Lots of good tread left. I only used these when temps stayed below 45ºF. They have about 15K miles of wear. I got tired of swapping and now have CrossClimates. I always liked the way these...

    FREE: MKV OEM Radio/CD

    I have a MKV OEM head unit radio from my 06 TDI that I no longer need. It is in excellent condition, no wear on buttons. I have the security code for it. It is yours for the taking. I live in SE Chester County near the PA/MD/DE line. Pickup only. Contact me via brentrn at gmail.

    How do I straighten the steering wheel?

    My MK7 Golf came with the steering wheel pointed to 10 o'clock. The dealer aligned it and the wheel was at 11 o'clock. I tried them again and they got it to 11:30, just enough to drive me a little crazy. Is there another way to straighten out a steering wheel without an alignment?

    VW Still Believes In Diesels; Unveils New 2.0 TDI Mild Hybrid

    I have seen some Nissan Leaf's that are just a few years old. They are the older version with only about 100 miles of range. They are selling for less than $6000. At that price it could be tempting to get one as a spare car for errands and local trips.

    Mk7 sunroof leak

    I did a limo tint on my MKVII sunroof. It was too bright in the cabin even with the shade drawn. It also seems to help keep the car much cooler in the summer.

    TDI Survivor Edition Sportwagen

    In Strasburg, Pennsylvania on Friday, October 26 I spotted a gleaming white TDI Sportwagen with off-white lettering along the door sill that said "TDI Survivor Edition" driving by the PA Railroad Museum on PA 741. Went by too fast to get a picture but I was impressed with that kind of TDI...

    Endless calls for TDI Extended Warranty

    Somehow VW TDIs are targeted by these calls. They started before the diesel scandal. I have never received a call for any of my other vehicles. Somehow these companies are seeking/getting the names, addresses, and phone numbers of VW owners. Perhaps in my state of Pennsylvania it is the state...

    Endless calls for TDI Extended Warranty

    I use NoMoRobo and set up call blocks but these calls have been using a different number every time. There must be many different companies selling this junk because the mailings and calls all seem to come from different sources.

    Endless calls for TDI Extended Warranty

    We bought a new 2012 TDI Sportwagen in January of 2012. In December of 2013 my wife was broadsided and the car was totaled. The problem is for the last two years I keep getting letters and phone calls asking if I want and extended warranty on the car. I tell the car is totaled but the calls keep...

    new leftover 2015 Passat SE TDI...value?

    This is my big question about buying a refurbished TDI. They are charging what a lot of new cars cost for a 3 to 4 year old car, many with lots of miles on the odometer. I wonder what you would get from insurance if it was totaled within a year of purchase?

    I hate some new features

    My 2018 Golf SE on has front collision avoidance. It has warnings well before braking. It can turned off through the Infotainment system. I’m glad to have it and don’t plan to disable it. I also found that while there is no ESP defeat button it can still be temporarily disabled through the...

    No response from VW about fixing my emissions recall

    I would speak to the owner of the dealership and explain the trouble you are having with the service department. VW wants to clear these cars from their books so the dealer should be under pressure to get this done. Keep a record of all calls, who you spoke to, and what they said to do.

    No response from VW about fixing my emissions recall

    My friend with a 2009 got his fixed last fall. He was happy with the results and got some cash too. Maybe you should call a different dealer to see if you get the same answer. Perhaps Alaska is taking longer to get the repair
