Electric window problems A quick question on the electric windows issue. Is it simply possible to replace all the electric windows with roll windows? The window cranks that we all used to know as kids? Are they imported to the states, or do I need to look elsewhere??? any ideas? I'm...

I need to replace or rebuild my fuel pump. Does anyone know of a good source for that (with fast shipping) or a rebuild shop. I'm in Socal, so local is nice, but mail works too. Ideas? Hans

Hmmm, that's probably why I haven't seen any effect at the pump yet. It's still about $3.40/gal here in LA. Waiting to buy til the price comes down. May just convert to SVO if it never comes...

Thanks Chris, Glad to hear that it's nothing more than that. It also let's me adjust the IQ, which is a long overdue thing. Best, Hans

Hello A3 group. I have a '98 Jetta TDi. My fuel pump has recently started to leak some fuel, I believe through the gaskets??? I'm not entirely sure what is wrong or how desperate the situation is. The car still runs fine, but has a smell of unburnt fuel when driven. What's wrong? and what...

My question to the forum is this. As soybeans moved up in price last winter and this spring, we were told that incrases in biodiesel price were due to the increased price paid for the feedstock, whether that be yellow grease or virgin soy. My memory [and quick check of cbot data] confirms that...

Well, I was treated to the nice surprise of having the badge 'vw' stolen out of my grill today. Does anyone know what these run? Is there any way to secure them any better than they are? They didn't break things up terribly in getting it out. It looks like it unscrews and pops out pretty...

Is there any room to actually want diesel and hybrid technology? I think both are pretty smart technologies and would like to utilize both of them, especially a serial hybrid.

Official: SFBA \"Other\" Car Dyno Day 7/17 Pretty neat! I'd like to hit one of these dyno days, but i got plans for saturday and the 400 mi up there is a little too far this weekend... Hans

dlai, I would like to see this car sometime. and any other radically modded cars here in the west. are there any gtg's in the bay or la basin in the near future? you should have told me you were doing the vegas trip. I would have come out to the overpass to watch. H

Well, complain as you will, I think either way it goes it's just semantics. Last time I drove on the autobahn it was more destaut than it was flowing. I think I drove faster (on average) in Spain by far.

PWR 4"x10" air to water intercooler for sale. Never used. Bought with the best of intentions, but never implemented on my TDI. Excellent condition. $425. + shipping.

Sounds like quite the testing circuit. I live in Pasadena, so your description of the urban warfare and barstow drive were familiar. One question for you. I'm very interested in this Up 3 setup, but listen with a little concern about a few things. One, what are those type of exhaust gas...

Wow, I thought I was done with mods, but stuff like this really gets the juices flowing. Should I sell my 911?

Biodiesel in Lancaster Co. PA what are they selling? B20? B100? I'll let my friends out there know... H

I started running B100 back in 2001. Had to change the fuel filter twice and put a hydroguard filter on my pump. that's all. otherwise, it's been pure frosting.

I personally don't know why they put refineries in someone else's back yard. If I were in the refining business, I would put my refinery halfway across the pacific. ship the crude to it, turn it into carbob, and move it on its way to cali. ie, collect the cali premium without having to do the...

I understand the need for refining capacity, because we all drive cars on this board at least. But refineries are definitely not something you want to call a neighbour. pretty smelly and polluting. But how would you know? THere aren't any down in SD. We refine all your gas/diesel up in LA.
