Thanks for the response. I thought the same so as I was driving I pulled the park brake and it didnt shake at all. It was the only way to try and isolate the shake in my mind. Neighbour said it could still be a warped rotor so I'm going to see if I can set up a dial indicator to test it. I...

So here is the problem. 2011 Jetta DSG, I have strange intermediate shake only during medium braking from about 100km/h to 60km/h then its much less noticeable. It is also almost nonexistent when braking very hard at any speed. Here is the list of the most recent work I've done to the car...

I have a DSG in my 2011 Jetta. Its a great transmission, very responsive, down shifts well without any jerking. Its responsive off the line, no noticeable lag when clutches are engaging. I do fluid filter changes myself. I bought the service kit from ID parts. Being in Canada I have found...

Yes you will need to take the skid plate off to do this service. Its not a fun job, you absolutely need the service kit ID parts sells (funnel, hose, adaptor, 24mm socket). VCDS is pretty much a necessity too to make sure the transmission is at 24 deg before pulling the plug to check the fluid...

Found the issue, lower charge pipe popped off the intercooler. all working again!! :D:D:D

Good day, So the wires that go to my MAP frayed and caused me all kinds of problems. I pulled the harness out and repaired the wires. now I'm having issues with boost regulation. The car ran in limp mode for a couple hundred km before I could get it home and then I left the car alone for the...

Thanks for the help, I did pull apart the charge air pipes coming off the intercooler to the intake manifold. found my problem. wire to the MAP was completely frayed. I am going to soder and heat shrink it back together. I noticed the protective sleeve is very brittle on that harness. From what...

Good day, A6 Jetta 2.0. I have been having issues with the car the past couple weeks. Initially I got 2 trouble codes and flashing glow plug light. I reset it and it quickly took it out of limp mode. Didn't think much else. I drove from Petawawa to Barrie on friday and the codes came back. I...

Pic isnt the best. Any insight on this would be great.

Good day folks, As I'm not new to TDI's this is my third and I have had it since Oct 16. I believe this is caused by VW's fix for the intake freezing. There seems to be a little more than acceptable amount of oil weeping around the hose clamps. It's not staining the driveway but it is making a...

Just did mine the other day. 6 weeks away.....

I bought a FF at the dealer too and with the exchange rate it works out to be the same as buying from ID parts.

Ya I'm going by Moncton this week so i'll stop in to princess auto. I had a set years ago but I loaned them. Didn't think I'd need them for brakes. This model you have to take the carrier off to remove the rotor. No way around this one. Just left the dealership. Fuel filter, oil filter and...

Thanks. Maybe I'll have to stop by there on Thursday. Pretty frustrating when I've done the job on tons of A4's and come across that.... just makes people feel that the VW dealer is the only place that can do the job.

Does anyone in the fredericton area have the right size 12 point torx that I need for the rear calipers on this 2012 Jetta? I just got the fronts done and went back to discover that problem.... Not a happy camper right now! I'm in Oromocto / Fredericton area. Any help would be great!

Thanks Gents, I may have bought those. It's been a while. I got the car on Thursday evening in Truro. All used TDI's can be sold but not new. This car has 150k on it. It's in great shape for the age and km. Found the hose on the intake manifold has a wrinkle in it causing oil to moisten the...

Good day gents, It's been a long time since I posted as I have been without a VW for several years. After driving a F150 and the Escape, I have sold the junk Escape and I'm picking up a 2011 Jetta TDI highline I wil be picking it up in NS later this week. I'm now living in Fredericton and...

http://pei.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-auto-parts-tires-tires-rims-4-Volkswagen-Alloy-Wheels-Tires-W0QQAdIdZ350700292 These are 15's...Dont know if that helps. There was a guy down my way parting out a GLS. I'll see if he still has the rims and if they are 16's. BTW. Going to Charlottetown on...

Truth hurts eh?:p

Mine was about 5mpg less with it un plugged. Your mileage may vary!
