    Why I do MY OWN service..unless Federally mandated

    I had my Passat at Leith VW in Raleigh NC for the emissions software and snow flap recall back in July. Today I went to check my oil and found the airbox screws were ALL loose and the top of the airbox lid was just up there flopping around, allowing unfiltered air to enter my engine for the...

    Throwing expensive parts at CEL light...........

    Well I have been trying to get my CEL decoded but there aren't many VAGCOM owners in my area (none). So after researching the related posts on this forum I bought the green coolant temp sensor (059 919 501a) and the "180" relay (138 911 253) for the glow plug system. As expected, neither one...

    USA SPEC 6 disc changer - is it any good?

    Just bought a 6 disc changer on Ebay. The details claim it is VW Monsoon compatible. The model number is USA Spec SCD-VW44. I did some research on the forums here and I learned that it is probably the Clarion spec unit. Does Panasonic make the OEM unit? What I want to know is, should I have held...

    Just bought this used TDI Jetta GLS

    Figured I'd throw together a page with some pics of the Jetta I bought Sept 6. It has 60,000 miles on it but the owner was not a smoker and used it for commuting, mostly highway miles. I couldn't believe how clean this car was! I was going to buy a new 2003 Jetta TDI GLS but I saved almost...

    I just bought a used TDI that needs a timing belt

    Bad news. I am bit upset that I bought a used VW in overall excellent condition with a tad over 60,000 miles. Looks like I will be shelling out $500 to get the timing belt and tensioner replaced! I found out about the 60K belt replacement requirement browsing the TDI Club forums this...

    Just bought my first VW TDI!

    Hey everyone! I've been lurking this forum for a while doing TDI research and this is my fist post here.
