Do you have a web address for API axles?

Just sold back our '11 Golf TDI. The buyback representative suggested we speak with a tax lawyer on how to claim the $5771.73 restitution payment. So is this Capital Gains, income, how does it get categorized on taxes? Did anyone bother filing this money on their taxes?

The owner's manual is very specific about using only low sulfur diesel and biodiesel not exceeding 5% bio. Sometimes on long distance trips, truck fueling stations only offer 20% biodiesel when we need fuel. How serious are these warnings? We'd like to take our GSW to Mexico this winter. Mexico...

Key fob battery Ours died at 4 weeks old. They are easy to replace, the manual shows you how, and the size is 2025.

Reduce oil level Bought my GSW in northern Indiana and immediately drove to FL. Got the yellow triangle of tragedy in southern IN. Oil level was at the top of the bead-like plastic just below the bare wire area. Rag showed oil at the top. Warning went out. 200 miles later the warning was back...

Highjacking this post. Anyone know where a Panzer pan or the like can be bought for the 2015 TDI GSW?

Bought from Highland VW, in Highland, IN 2015 GSW S TDI. Had 75 miles on it, only received $5000 discount so price out the door was $21380. Put $500 down have 72 mo 0% financing for 72 months, $303/mo. Guess we'll sell back our 2011 Golf with 70K on it to mostly pay it off. New car looks as if...

My experience with Class Action lawsuits is that the "up to $350" means we'll be very fortunate to receive $3.50. Lawyers love class action lawsuits. When they copy a file they can and will charge $10/ page. They will consume at least 75% of the settlement

We just bought a 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee diesel. Not new, but it is replacing a F250 4x4 power stroke diesel. We don't need a truck anymore, but still need 4x4. Gets about 10-15 mpg better than the truck. Our entire driving fleet is diesel, as is the tractor and standby genset.

Keeping the 2011 Golf with 68K miles. Nothing compares and we like everything. Also have a 2004 Passat wagon TDI, 190K and counting. If VW comes up with a fix we are doing it, if not we have 2 more years to find the terms EPA gives us.

We bought everything from REI. Base, bars, bike rack. Our mileage took a hit of about 5 mpg. We're doing a long trip starting tomorrow and pulled the rack off, so will be able to see if it is the rack or the Malone chip.

Trusted Mechanic in Houston, TX We were in the middle of a road trip from AZ to Houston, TX when we noticed the front of our 2004 Passat TDI wagon was vibrating on acceleration, and much more than it had been. We suspected a failing CV joint. But where to find a mechanic? We checked "trusted...

04 TDI Wagon mileage We bought our wagon in May in LV. Drove home following our Prius. Prius got 50 mpg while Passat got 40mpg. Around town averaging 36-38 driving like a Prius. Hwy mileage is 36-40. On a 2500 mile road trip it averaged 38, best tank was 42 with a tailwind. On the road trip we...

Bought one via car-parts.com

My LH tail light has a tiny crack. Didn't believe it was a problem but now that AZ monsoon season has arrived it's collecting water. Any source for replacement lenses? Would the wrap kits work at keeping dust and water out? Thanks.

Mine is cracked and leaking dust or water when driving dirt roads or when it rains. Any good used or new available? upfisk@aol.com

Can you send me a reply on this forum?

Another unchained Passat Just bought an '04 Passat TDI wagon with 87k in the odometer on May 12th. Drove it 600 miles to Phoenix and asked an independent shop to check out the timing belt. The previous owner had owned the car only 4K miles and said his mechanic observed that the timing belt...
