    The Golf/Rabbit VI

    I quite like the looks of the new Golf....although at first glance, the front end looks very similar to the current Ford Focus. But all in all, I think that this is a much better looking design than the A5....

    Having a problem stripping an ABA engine...

    Hmm....I'll give that a shot as a "last ditch" option....I'm a little hesitant to do what you suggest, only because of the potential to damage these bolts. There is a problem with getting the correct ones from Volkswagen - ETKA shows a supersession to a part that is ot even remotely related to...

    Having a problem stripping an ABA engine...

    Hi Folks; I'm in the process of tearing down an ABA 2.0L for my 1990 Jetta GLI, and I was wondering if there is a trick to getting the main bearing caps off of the block once they are unbolted. the #3 main bearing cap seems to be stuck on the block/crank, and I wasn't sure if it was safe to...

    The Motonav system is Bluetooth based and uses Navteq maps....I find that it works really well.

    FS: Motorola Q w/ Motonav Navigation System

    And the reason for posting this thread in this forum? When your timing belt breaks, having this phone will not only allow you to call a tow truck, but the navigation system will allow you to give the tow truck driver your EXACT location. hehehe.....

    FS: Motorola Q w/ Motonav Navigation System

    Hey Guys; I'm selling my MotoQ as I now have a new cell phone that I was given by my employer. I also have the unit listed on Kijiji, but I figured that I would post it here as well, seeing that it is equipped with Motonav, I'm sure that someone would appreciate being able to integrate their...

    Alarm Doesn't Chirp when Locking

    Hmm...when I scan, I'm not getting anything....I'm going to have a look and see if there is a way to search for malfunctioning alarm components.... Now, if anyone can answer part 2 of my question - TDI Stumble on deceleration/EGR adjustment - that would be great.

    Alarm Doesn't Chirp when Locking

    Is there any way to search with VAG COM what switch is at fault? The door, trunk, and all doors are latched, as is the hood.......I'm wondering if there is any way to tell if there is an open circuit somewhere in the system?

    Alarm Doesn't Chirp when Locking

    Hey Guys; I'm having a funny problem with my Jetta Wagon.... When I lock the car, the alarm no longer chirps to confirm that the vehicle is locked. I have checked the coding for the alarm and everything is set so that the alarm should chirp when locking...however, for some reason this isn't...

    VW Canada

    Volkswagen doesn't offer a rust module....the 12 year/unlimited mileage corrosion warranty covers rust....and those rust modules don't really work anyway.

    Need to quit Smoking

    After reading the issues that you are describing...my first thought was timing. That would make the most sense to me, however it could also be an issue with injected fuel quantity, or possibly even an O2 Sensor.

    I'm embarrassed to admit this...but I don't have any friends that I could call over to work on the car with me....believe me, I would have thought about this.

    How do you guys get/stay motivated?

    Well, the truth of the matter is, I do have a new car that I bought a few months ago. Yhe GLI is more of a summer fun car....I just can't bring myself to get rid of it, and yet at the same time, I seem to be having issues getting it done.

    How do you guys get/stay motivated?

    Hey Everyone... I'm turning to my fellow VW people for some support. One of my many projects in a 1990 Jetta GLI that has been in my family since it was new. My Mom bought it in 1990 and it was given to me on my 16th birthday. I have had it off the road since 2004 when I started an ABA...
