    Gear shifter noise

    I still have the DMF and it has at least 200k on it but maybe more. I don't have signs of failure yet or noise from it that I can tell. I got the car at 190k. I have no issues going into 1st or reverse. The engine mount was replaced with an OEM one at last timing belt at 230k. I have near...

    Gear shifter noise

    I have a 2001 Jetta TDI with 393k miles and I've been getting a gear shift stick rattling noise in 3rd and 4th gears when accelerating. When I grab the shifter stick and move it a bit and hold it, the noise stops. It sounds like a loose washer rattling but I see nothing loose. I replaced all...

    Nicktane 1 micron fuel filters.

    Which model of Cim Tek filter did you go with and does it have water separation? Which thread size is it? I'm curious if the Donaldson p553203 has a similar filtration capacity/change interval to the Cat IR-750. Some people are changing those Cat filters every 100k miles or more.

    New VW OE TDI Battery Philadelphia area

    Hi all, I bought a non-returnable VW battery from the dealer two weeks ago and I ended up not needing it. I have the original receipt form the dealer. It is the 80ah battery, part number 000-915-105-DH. I'm looking to sell it to a local person to get back some of my money. If anybody is...

    I emailed Jim and he said only the MK5 & MK6 cars can use the stock pan under the panzer plate. It is sold....

    FS stock plastic belly cover / skid plate

    I just noticed your profile says you have a 2011 jetta....I have an MKIV these are different installs. I think we might be talking apples and oranges. I'll call Jim at Diesel Geek and ask him about installing the stock pan under the aluminum one.

    FS stock plastic belly cover / skid plate

    I have heard of people doing this. My install from Dieselgeek has only 13 pages. Maybe you have a different version PDF than I do. My panzer plate screws right into the side skirts and there is no gap near the belts. Seems to seal pretty well. I think it is maybe a bit louder than the stock...

    FS stock plastic belly cover / skid plate

    I just put on a panzer skid plate and I don't really want the plastic one laying around. It is in good shape. PM me for a picture. I'm outside of Philadelphia if anybody needs one. I have no idea what shipping might cost. Thanks Shane

    Sticky rotor

    Did you figure out what the problem was? I am having a similar issue. the drivers side wheel hesitates at one part when you spin the wheel. It is making a thumping noise at highway speeds. It might be useful to see how you resolved your problem.

    100k Timing Belt Kits

    Thanks! there are some good ideas there. I am thinking about the oil pump chain and tensioner. Is the oil pump itself likely to fail? I have no shake during acceleration and it shifts smoothly in every gear so I think the mounts are ok. I also just did the intake cleaning and it was very...

    100k Timing Belt Kits

    I'm changing my belt and I had a similar question as the OP. My '01 is at 230K and I have no idea what has been changed at 180K when it was done. I just looked at the belt and it has no writing left on it. I can clearly see paint marks from the mark and pray. My timing is right on the red...

    Poor highway mpg

    Well there is a reason for the MPG dropoff and I'm not giving up until find it. Today I tested the MAF with VCDS and it seems to be ok until I get to about 3600rpms then I get 850 specified and 700 actual. Actual goes down from there with higher RPMS, the pedal on the floor and a steady 850...
