Last night doing about 60 mph in the middle lane of a 5 lane parkway. The dash suddenly filled with smoke which heavily obscured vision through the windshield. I was barely able to see and navigate through traffic to pull into a Gulf station that luckily was 1/4 mile ahead. I thought it was...
I bought these for my black 96 Passat before I found ones that are the correct color so never used these. absolutely no rust and power windows work. $75 ea obo picked up in Derby Ct. I can also deliver within 75 mile radius for a fee.
This unit has been tested in my 96 B4V. You'll have to procure a key FOB. Replaces existing B4 door lock controller (behind head light switch) and make it wireless! $60 shipped CONUS.
Bought Sept 09 from a couple in MA. It was my first TDI. My intent was to fix it up with the help of TDI club and convert it to run on WVO. I have been running WVO successfully since 2005 with over 250k miles total on 3 different IDI diesels (Peugeot, Mercedes and a VW Jetta IDI) with no engine...
I felt a slow loss of power assist to the steering last night. Just so happen I have a fresh can of CH-11 pwr steering fluid so I filled the empty reservoir and started up the engine and saw fluid dripping out the bottom of engine.. Closeer look revealed the lower steel line on the pwr steering...

I was able to slide the connector about 1/2 inch and can see it moves at an angle up and out but it won't slide more than 1/2 inch.. is there a hidden locking pin somewhere? I tried lubing it with wd40 and prying and hammering with leverage and it won't budge. Don't want to break it. What's the...

Went to an air cooled VW show and a vedor there had a lot of water cooled parts, one of which was a GQ ECU from a 97 TDI for $10. Per seller the ECU is a good one. Any checks or precautions I should take before plugging in the harness?
On my 1Z, I need to re-route the 2 sections of plastic intercooler pipes that run from the intercooler (by the radiator fan switch) up to the aluminum piece which then go on to the turbo. This is so I can free up some space where the pipes currently occupy (above the fan motor). I was thinkng...
I don't know why VW does not pre-glow the glow plugs when ambient temp is above 40F, but it does have a 2 to 3 minute post glow after the engine starts. Having pre-glow, winter or summer, gives a cleaner start. I have verified that by forcing a pre-glow by unplugging the coolant temp sensor...
I can't minimize VCDS (ver 10.6.2) when it's running. It takes over the desktop and is always on the foreground. Windows 7, 64 bit CPU. Anyone else have this problem? .
Anyone notice the discrepancy between the fuel temp as reported in the lower left hand corner of the TDI timing graph and group 007?
In the graph, it says 130 with no units of measure so I assume that's in F. In group 007, it syas 40 C (104 F). That's a 26 degree difference! Which one is...
I had my glow plugs under manual control with a separate relay/solenoid but decided to go back to ECU control. I have a light bulb connected to the glow plugs so I can see whenever they are being powered.
This morning ambient temp was around 60F. I have VCDS monitoring group 012. All glow...
