    2006 Jetta Egr Cooler Pipe Leak

    A friend's '06 developed a sound upon acceleration. I don't remember how exactly he described it, but it was like a leaking air sound. I told him to check the EGR cooler pipe. Well he never did find the prob, but he took it to the dealer to get diagnosed. They told him it was the EGR valve...

    3 Bar MAP Low Readings

    According to SG my MAP readings are only 13.3 to 13.7 at idle. This is with RC4 and everything else in the signature. I am not at elevation so that's not it. Also boost is proportionately correct to where I think it should be from the low map readings. I know with the 2.5 MAP at idle it was...

    Hanging emergency brake

    Why do the Mk IV Jettas have the arc of, I believe it's the ebrake, hanging down on the rear? I don't see this on any other brands of cars. It just seems they could have designed it with a more buttoned-up appearance. Any real reason for this?

    Stalling and difficult starting...again

    I thought I had this problem licked the other day, guess not. I was driving on the freeway when my 02 jetta stuttered then lost power. I was unable to get it started so I had it towed back to my place and replaced the FF. Problem solved, so I thought. I drove it around the block and to a friends...

    Dirty snow screen w/pic

    This was awhile back at Jon's tuning session. When Jeff was doing my RC3 he asked I had ever seen my snow screen. Nope!!! He said this was pretty much the worst he had seen at the time. There was cardboard, gobs of dirt, a maple whirlybird, and even a dragonfly. Surprisingly, my MPG wasn't bad.

    Modded TDIs

    Today I was thinking about all the modded TDI's out there. RC is all over the place in addition to some of the others. I know it is almost impossible to figure out exactly how many performance modded TDI's are out there, but this is a discussion forum. So what do you think?

    Any one know why Gale Banks kits for our cars?
