Fred- What forum hosting software package do you use? Is it real expensive? Reason I ask, I'd like to recommend it to the hosts over at CRVOwnersClub. They just changed their software and it's real garbage.

It would be great if there was a Sticky describing the difference between a VE and PD in the VW MKIV-A4 TDIs (VE and PD). Much confusion noted there as well as lack of PD knowledge, although it's gotten much better as more folks are having issues with their 2004, 2005s.

Just wanted to say thank you to Fred and all the folks that make this site go. I use a lot of forums and this is the only one that has no Trackers. Outstanding!

Closed For my 2003 New Beetle. I imagine I'll need to get the mounting hardware new. Just not wanting to spend $300 on a new one.

Want to trade my Bentley CD for a Bentley CD. Mine covers Golf, GTI, Jetta 1999-2004 and Jetta Wagon 2001-2004. I need one that covers 2003 New Beetle. I need to be able to get it to run on my PC. Bentley does not approve of any private exchange so licensing and registration could be an issue. I...

It would be real nice if folks would post the final selling price in their threads. I'm doing research for a totaled vehicle to establish insurance value. Most of the threads I see only list asking and many list nothing. Please!!

I'll soon be putting together a new computer. It will run Windows 10 Pro. Has anyone got their electronic Bentley software to run on that platform? It don't come with XP Mode like 7 did, but from what I'm reading it might run using compatibility mode. From past experience, I don't imagine I'll...

This is odd, I pulled the front left turn signal bulb to replace, it's marked 4157NAK. Must be a holdover from the '99 A3 (minesa 99.5). Is the 4157 series bulbs the same as the 3457?

So I have the familiar tic tic on wheel rotation, sounds like a CV joint to me but I am no car mechanic. Tic when turning left no tic when turning right. Sometimes when going straight. Doesn't seem to get louder with speed, can't quite hear it at higher speed. So I got underneath expecting...

Just saw this over on another forum http://www3.epa.gov/otaq/cert/documents/vw-nov-caa-09-18-15.pdf

I have cracked and destroyed the plastic locking mechanism on the plugs (52&28 pin) that connect to the ECU. The plugs are back on tight, but I might want to repair these in the future. If I purchase this- http://www.worldimpex.com/assets/partimages/037989.jpg Would I be able to swap out just...

Broke the plastic wiper motor drive. I have 3 options; 1. new motor 2. try to locate plastic piece 3. super glue. Anyone know where I might be able to purchase the plastic piece? Wouldn't it be nice if there was a Bosch store where we could purchase the bits we need? Anyone who has dealt with...

So, after 15 years in the salt my muffler support has rusted through. I've rigged a new support, but a new exhaust is in my future. I know my downpipe is speckled with holes and all the pipes are pretty rusty. I'd like to know what products you folks are using to repair/replace the whole mess...

Are there any plans to incorporate the cluster read function into the VCDS device? Sure would be handy..............

I have a 10mm with 87k miles on it. It was rebuilt a year and a half ago by DFIS ($800) and run for 2,000 miles. I will ship it to you for $600 and guarantee it to work.

I’ve been fighting this problem for 2 years, it’s getting worse. The car runs fine under load, but sometimes (most of the time lately), with no load, will sputter terribly. --Sound Clip-- (clutch in 10 sec. clutch out 10 sec.). I had it idling smooth a few days ago and it sounded (background...

I'm buying a new Injection Pump. World Impex has it $300 cheaper than IDParts, but no warranty. Are they the same part? I've contacted both vendors, still don't know. Anyone purchased these recently? Please see this thread
