/vent My '15 Touareg TDI has been in my local VW shop since June 15th... at the end of May, it threw the "AdBlue System Fault; 200 miles remaining until no restart" error message in the dash panel. It is very much still under the extended emissions warranty, so rather than investigate myself...

It was time; my wife deserved a newer car, so we just bought a brand-new 2014 TDI Golf Wagon (JSW if you must) with the manual 6 from our local dealer today. After looking all over for a gently used one still under the bumper to bumper warranty, I came to the conclusion that paying a few...

Hi all, Not applicable to all, but those with Climatronics may be interested in my translation of the full list of Climatronic self-diagnostic modes and channels I finally finished this week for non-German speakers. I scrounged the original on dieselschrauber.de a couple of years ago, and have...

Hi all, FYI - this isn't my sale, but I'd feel better about giving up my TDI if I knew someone from TDIClub got it and kept taking good care of it. In case anyone is interested, my old '02 NB TDI that I traded in last weekend has been put up on eBay by the dealer I traded it to. Here's the...

Just thought I'd post this link for anyone looking for a slightly used NB in Dallas. Found it while looking for a car for my sister-in-law, and a NB is not her thing. This is the same dealer I bought my 02 NB from two years ago - highly recommend him if you want no hassles. Bring cash or your...

These turbo options for the VE engines have been discussed ad nauseam in their own threads (I've been reading... a lot!), but what I haven't found is a basic explanation of the tradeoffs between the two, which would be helpful for those of us looking to follow the trailblazers. So, let me...

About a year ago, I practically stole ($10!) a set of brand-new LWR motors for my Beetle's headlights off of fleaBay... and now I'm looking to complete my parts list and install the mod. I've been searching ebay for the part # for the NB LWR switch (1c0 941 333 a), for the last year or so with...

Hi - I've disassembed my north american (plastic lens) headlights for repair, and am not sure what to use to seal them back up again when I reassemble... has anyone got any tips or experience with different sealants? Please share... :D Thanks.

Does anyone know of a good junkyard for B4 parts in or near Fort Worth, TX? I'm trying to replace my headlight adjusters' internal parts cheaply, and want to look locally before I wait on shipping from elsewhere. Thanks!

Hi all, I'm looking for a used, but mechanically sound left (driver's side) B4 North American headlight. The foggier, the better (so the price is right) :D - I just need some internal adjuster parts to repair my pristine set of NA headlights so I can put them back onto my B4 that I'm selling...

:rolleyes: Sorry if I offend the on-topic demigods, but we have no "Off Topic" area, and this info could possibly be used for non-TDI upgrades. Plus, I think a lot of the resident electrical wizards hang out here. I need to replace a broken microswitch on one of the circuit boards in my...

Is anyone else who lives around DFW just as dumbfounded as I am at the amount of road hazards caused by: Careless pickup truck drivers (and others) who don't secure their loads Retreads?In the last three days, it has been especially bad around Lake Worth/Saginaw on the 820 loop. To date, since...

Basic question - I can't find a good pic of the latest NB cluster. I can see that the '06 NB ODO area is now pixelated, red and seems larger. I've heard rumors... can anyone confirm or deny if it has an MFA? (if not, I'll eventually drop by a dealer and check it out - just another mod idea...)

Just a basic question... in lieu of opening up my NB cluster (which I will have to do anyway) - my cruise control lamp burned out yesterday. Is the cruise indicator lit by a bulb or an led? I.e. easy... or hard? I haven't had any luck looking up a bulb part #. Thanks!

So, I post again - I've worked a deal to buy an '05 Passat TDI Wagon for my dad. :cool: Here's the VIN: WVWCE63B35E121260 *corrected* I trust what the seller is telling me, but as good 'ol Ronald said - trust but verify. ;) Could someone run the VIN for me and PM me? Thanks! :D

I'm posting this for my Dad - he's looking for a B5.5 Variant TDI, and lives in Granger, IN. I've warned him that recent asking prices for TDI Passat Wagons may induce fainting spells, shock, heart attack, etc, but he's still considering one. We tend to keep our cars for about 10 years, so...

I've been noticing a green Jetta wagon with "BIODIESEL TDI" in OEM-esque letters on the rear hatch around Keller, TX for the last week or so. I think it belongs to a TDI Clubber - it also has a "Dive Naked" bumper sticker. You were behind me on the Loop 820 - N I-35W ramp late last week. I...

Now that our old B4V GLX 5sp is mothballed (we bought a B5.5V), I'm thinking of selling it or eventually converting it to TDI for sale or use. (The tranny went south - 1st syncro - but still works for the time being) I've put out a feeler on the 'tex in case someone wants it as-is for a decent...

Greetings I just purchased a 2002 Passat (new family hauler - not TDI :frown:) , and the car only came with the valet key. :mad: The dealer (independent specialist in german lease returns) gave me two remote halves when I picked up the car yesterday, and has ordered two new keys/transponder...

Tried the search for a while and couldn't find a definitive answer on this question: Can a normal Double-DIN B5.5 headunit be recoded for Monsoon? I know you can recode a Monsoon to work without its amp, but my dilemma is the opposite: I'm picking up a B5.5V today after work that has the...
