    MK7 Golf TDI low end power gone and black smoke after thermostat housing change

    I had to change my thermostat housing and in doing so had my car apart for about a week with the battery out. I had to take out the throttle valve also. Put it all back together and now there's a ton of black smoke and no power below 1900ish RPM, literally feels like a big turbo car. Car ran...

    Torque Convertor

    I'm sorry to beat a dead horse but I just picked this car up 2 months ago and now I see why it was such a good deal. I only have 129k on it and the TC code popped up a couple weeks ago. I'm a MKIII and MKIV guy so I have a OBD Scanner in every car. I scanned it and then cleared it. I haven't had...
