I recently acquired another 06 jetta TDI with DSG a couple weeks ago with a bad cam. The DMF is a little noisy but will be taken care of in the near future. I originally bought it as a project and was planning on selling it but the wife ended up really liking the car so it looks like its a...

I've got 188k miles on my car and I've had two glow plugs fail in the last 6 months. I've been tight on cash and I was able to find some replacement glow plugs at Napa for $11 a piece. The Napa catalog says that they were for the brm but they were steel champion plugs. I put them in and I havent...

I have the housing only without the filter. It takes the filter with the olympic style o ring. A couple of the bolts are missing for the lid but they could probably be replaced with other ones. Im asking $60 shipped. PM me if you want a pic.

I got pulled over specifically for my window tint recently after owning my car for almost 2 years. It was the first time I ever got pulled over in it. I also noticed that cops like to get behind me and it seems like they follow me for a little while but never pull me over. So does your vw...

I pulled my ASV the other day so that I could clean it and I was shocked when I saw this... I was just expecting a light film but nothing as bad as this. Since I bought it I always ran D2 but I ran two tanks of bio in it about a year ago. Has anyone here ever pulled the intake manifold to...

I have an extra set of 1/8 inch steel block off plates for a brm. One for the exhaust manifold side and one for the intake. I'll include a free gasket for the intake side. Asking 60$ shipped obo.

I've gotten into the habit of letting my car idle for about a minute before shutting it off to let things cool down. Is this really necessary with our cars?

I dont know if this is the right section to post this. But for the life of me I cannot find a door skin online. I have a dent in my drivers side door. Where would I be able to find a door skin for my jetta?

Ive been wanting to do this for a while and I finally got it done today. Its a 2.5 inch straight pipe from the cat all the way back. It has a slight rumble at idle and when driving my it sounds more like a truck if your outside. You cant really tell the difference in the car with the windows up...

I got a rock in my windshield today and it cracked it right where the rear view mirror is. The crack is about 6 to 8 inches long. Will something like that be repairable? I already called my insurance and they want a $500 deductible if I go through them. Any recommended shops in the Atlanta...

I finally got approved for financial aid so I got my money back that I sent for school. Is there anyone in the Atlanta area that can tune my 06 jetta? The main reason why I want to do this is because my egr is starting to leak and I want to disable it. And of course I wont mind having a little...

A friend of my dads has an 03 golf auto with 90k miles on it and a broken timing belt. About how much would it cost for an engine rebuild or a new engine for it? He's offering to sell it for about 4 grand and I'm thinking about picking it up and repairing it. Would it be worth it?

Other than the timing belt tools, will I need any other special tools when replacing the camshaft in the BRM? I have a bentley manual but it dosent go into much detail as far as the cam replacement goes.

I need the tools since im going to be replacing my TB/cam soon.

Im planning on switching over to mobil 1 TDT in my 06 jetta tdi when I do my next oil change. Can I find a zddp additive at an autozone or a pep boys or do I have to order it online?

I added an 8oz bottle of standyne for the first time today when I filled up. Immediately after I noticed that my car is smoking more than normal under heavy load. Is this just telling me that the standyne is doing its job or do I have a problem? I also noticed that the engine makes sort of a...
