On deceleration, with a slight right turn, we get a pretty loud grumbling noise that I believe is the CV axle. I don't see the parts to rebuild the axle so now I am shopping for a GKN or Raxle replacement. Should I do both sides while I am down there or just the one that failed? Car has 129k...
Taking over maintenance on my Mom's car now that my Dad has passed. It's a 2012 with 129k miles on it and I noticed the other day when coasting in gear/decelerating there is like a low rumble coming from the passenger side I believe. Any guesses what this could be? Do the U Joints go bad on...
I need to stop touching things today because I keep striking out. My Dad passed away a month ago after a battle with cancer and I'm trying to help my Mom with a few things. One of those are some check engine codes on her car. It appears we have the "dreaded P2002 and P0401" as well as P240F...

Selling my Mom's 2002 Volkswagen TDI.
The Good:

Pretty sure it has a rocket chip (had a rocketchip sticker on the back window when we bought it and it's FAST compared my 2000 and my sisters 2003)
Rust free
Tires are decent
New fans and master...
I'm going to help my parents sell their 2002 Jetta TDI wagon. It's going to need a new accesory bracket, glove box and headliner. It also has a clearcoat failure on the roof and hood. It's a rust free FL car with leather interior. I'm also 90% sure it has a rocketchip. Due to this I would rate...
Hey there,
My Mom's 2002 TDI wagon appears to have had a engine grenade. I'm trying to figure out what this pulley attaches to. Whatever aluminum casting its bolted on has broke and I can't tell if it's part of the block, a bracket or what.
Any idea?

The only VW left in the family is my mom's so hopefully she doesn't need them. I only ask that you pay shipping and/or make a donation to Tampa Bay Watch for whatever amount you desire.
Time to sell the single best financial decision I've ever made in my life, what I call the Silver Bullet.
It's a 2000 VW Jetta TDI 4 door sedan with a 5 speed manual transmission. Grey leather interior, 45-50 mpg, very well maintained and fun to drive car ready for the next owner. The interior...
I'm looking for a AC clutch only for my 2000 Jetta TDI. If you have a good deal on a compressor I might go for that as well. Please respond with shipped price to 33626.
Thank you!
So...I went through the AC Guide and slowly started figuring out what's not working. I need to recheck power at the T4 connector because I miss interpreted the guide. Regarding grounds I have continuity from T4 4 to ground but NOT from T4 2. How do I troubleshoot that? Is that my issue?
I have...
I've looked through that A/C Troubleshooting guide and it's a bit over my head. I can turn a wrench but when it comes to electrical/multimeters I seem to cause more harm than good.
I did test for voltage at the G65 sensor. Nothing on the positive side, the white middle wire doesn't put out any...
This is an issue that has been plaguing me recently. It started happening once every 3 weeks and now it's a little more often. It happens in one of two ways as described below.
If the car is warm and I park it, sometimes it won't restart. No lights or indications of something wrong. It will...
Hello,
My A/C fans are not spinning and my A/C compressor is not engaging so I suspect I am low on R134a/Freon. However, when I hook up my gauge to the low side line, either my gauge is broken or I'm not getting a reading. Is there something I am missing?
Started with my drivers side door and then my passenger side door (both within a couple months). Basically once the car is locked, I have to push on the entire door until I hear a click then I can open the door normally. I don't have to push very hard, just slight pressure around the door handle...
Someone gave me this but its just been collecting dust in my closet. It's a double din radio/CD player out of I believe a 2004 Golf. Sorry, no radio key or knobs. If anyone wants it I have no problem getting a box and shipping it provided you pay shipping. Otherwise, pick it up in Tampa.
Just a friendly reminder to check your sunroof drains. A year ago my car was flooded on the inside because of clogged sunroof drains found in the drivers side and passenger side door jams (by hinges). Yesterday I was trouble shooting my trailer light wiring harness when I found 2" of standing...
I was driving home Sunday when I realized my battery light was on. A little later my car was a little difficult to start but started. Next morning, it was completely dead. I thought my battery had finally died because it was from 2006. So I put it on the trickle charger and drove it to work the...
So Advance stopped carrying Beck/Arnley and Bosch, Napa doesn't carry either nor their Gold filters and Autozone has garbage. Is everyone going to the dealer now?
