I checked the wires from the battery going to the starter and could not find anything bad. The connections were still snug just dirty after all these years. I gave them a good cleaning, gave the starter a light tap or two with a wooden hammer handle. I put the key in the ignition and heard the...
P2B, many thanks. I'm not a VAG-COM guru by any stretch. I checked the battery with my volt/ohm meter, and it reads 12./12.2v. I guess the only way to check the starter is to pull it and put some power to it to see if the motor or solenoid works. Any other insights would be welcome.
I'm still...
I have checked the wires on the terminal block on top of the battery, appear GTG as does the three 30amp fuses. I checked the fuses inside the car located on the driver side fuse panel, all look good. I'm going to inspect the ABS sensors as there is a code for them, had one get the wire cut...
Had some really cold weather and my NB had trouble starting, couldn't get it to turn over. Meaning it cranked but couldn't spin fast enough to light. I had double dosed the tank with White Power Service prior to the cold snap.. I waited until the weather warmed up and the NB would not turn over...
I have used VW factory, Liqui-Moly, Febi-Bilstein with no issues. I use the top fill method. I buy the kits from IDParts, they say the filter is an OEM but the factory marked part is $5 more. They both look identical. 5L comes out so I put 5L back in.
I have a 2006 NB DSG. The DSG grenaded at 60k. Thankfully I had the extended warranty and after fighting with the Stealership and getting Corporate involved I got a new DSG installed at no additional cost. I do my own service using the top fill method every 40k. I have used OEM VW 1st, Pentosin...
I'm currently running the Liqui Moly 8100 in my 2006 NB DSG with zero issues. I previously used OEM, Pentosin, now Liqui Moly. I purchased everything from IDParts.com. I couldn't tell a difference between any of them in my vehicle.

The wires and connector on the head lamp itself, not the one on the car, are getting fried. Yes I'm running the hotter SYLVANIA H7 SilverStar Ultra. The stock bulbs suck at night.
I need to know how to get the connector out, the white plastic one with several flat blades facing up. I'm thinking...
Possibly the fuel filter/o-rings,you may have a vacuum leak and are sucking air.
I had my 2006 NB die on me and it was the o-rings,used the supplied black/black ones and not the VW black/blue ones.The filter was a Hengst from an approved TDI vendor. Had to bleed the air out of the fuel system...
Car died today,just stopped cold.Luckily I was only a mile from the house and had it towed back.Had power and it would turn over but wouldnt start.Thinking worst case scenario since Ive been having a string of problems as the car gets older.
Ran a Vag-Com and nothing.No fault codes,no idiot...
I have a 2006 NB TDI with DSG.Glad I bought the extended warranty.Normally I never opt for extended warranties(Japanese cars) but with VWs spotty QC and the DSG being new I did($1k).DSG grenaded at 60k and was over $5k just for a new tranny plus labor and related parts fluid filter etc.The...
I have a 2006 NB with the Monsoon 5.5 XM Satellite radio.I have had satellite service since day one with no problems until now.The radio says NO SIGNL when turned onto satellite mode.I do get FM but no AM,CD works fine.
I called XM and verified I was still getting service,im paid up till the...
My local dealer still claims the DSG on my NB is sealed and does not need the fluid changed.I told him he needs to re-think his answer.I politely showed him the VW parts numbers for the DSG fluid,filter,drain plug tool,drain plug,he was still in denial.
On the way out of the stealership I...
