I'm sure most of you know I have stopped repairing and modifying B4 clusters. Lots of life changes over the last year, and I just simply don't have time for it anymore. My computer with all my EEPROM data dying and not having anything backed up was the final nail in the coffin. I was very happy...

Ive been thinking about and researching this swap for a long time and I'm finally getting started doing it. This past year my shop Chub's Auto got its rebuilding license from the state. Having a rebuilders license has allowed me to get some really good deals on salvage title cars. Earlier in...

I dunno if this is the correct section to post this in, but I figure most of the people I do work for will see it here. I was woken up yesterday morning to being told my shop was burning, not a real great way to start a long weekend...

Ive been to a few GTG's that were a few hours away but there really isnt much happening in my area. Im located about 30 miles south of Springfield in Taylorville, IL. There are getting to be more and more TDI's around town and I know there are quite a few of you upstate and downstate from me. I...

I got an 03 1.8T Jetta not to long ago that was rolled badly, so I decided to part it out. I pulled the complete drive train and all related components. The engine is a 180 Hp 1.8 turbo engine with a 5 speed tiptronic auto transmission that had 100K on it . The car took most of its damage to the...

Im in need of a shift housing for my 96 Passat. I couldnt shift any farther then 2nd gear, took the housing off the transmission only to find it damaged beyond just a simple bushing and seal replacement. I tried to order a new one and there on national back order. I only need the housing but I...

I have 2 MFA clusters that I converted over to TDI MFA clusters. These clusters started out as VR6 clusters, I install the missing LED for the relocated MIL, install the 2 missing surface mount resistors, I also install a pin in the blank connector on the back of the cluster so the second plug...

Its starting to get warmer finally and Im going to be needing my A/C again here shortly. When I rebuilt the motor in my car I had to drain the A/C and for some reason the Robinair A/C machine we have thats been used on lots of other cars wont open the service ports. I ended up replacing the...

I was driving by KFC here in Taylorville, Il and I see a green B4 wagon turn into KFC, I couldnt see if it was a TDI so I circled back around to look and sure enough it was a pretty nice looking green B4 TDI wagon. I have no clue who owns it, Ive never seen it around town before. Must have been...

Im looking for any and all B4 Passat instrument clusters V6, 4 cylinder gas, and TDI. As long as they dont have the screws next to the speedo and tach I may be interested. Doesnt matter if they work or not, I need parts clusters and repairable cores. Thanks

Well today was not a good day, on the way back from a junk yard up by Chicago I lost oil pressure and now have a nice knock in my engine. Im not sure what exactly happened just driving along on the interstate I hear a slight tick starting then the oil light flashes. I pulled over shut it off and...

My cluster was on its way out when I bought the car about a year ago, I replaced the power supply caps in the cluster and it fixed it till last night. Last night it was good and cold, I turned the key on let it glow, all the lights came on, the clock and odometer worked but none of the needles...

I was at pick and pull seeing if they had any B4 Passats and there was not one to be found. I did see a A4 Jetta, its red with tan leather interior, has heated seats, 2.0 with a 5 speed. The car is almost complete a few small parts missing, the interior is in great shape with no cracks or tears...

I have left over parts from replacing and engine in a 98 B5 Passat 1.8T auto code AEB. The engine broke the timing chain tensioner in the back of the head causing the cam gear to shear and strip the timing belt. The head has at least 2 bent valve, I didnt take it apart but I can see 2 bent ones...
