    Help ! Injector Pump Seal Leaks

    Well crap. I took the pump apart and put new top and bottom seals on. Marked the covers so that I could at least try to get them back to the right spot. It turns over and sputters, like its trying to start, but won't run.

    Trying to replace wheel bearings

    Thanks guys. All back together. Had a bad hub, and invested in a torque wrench to get the 195 ft/lb ..... $350 and 8 hrs into it and the alignment is just slightly off. Will get an alignment after I get some tires.

    Trying to replace wheel bearings

    About two years ago I replaced the front wheel bearings on my wifes 95 passat wagon. Its a GLX model with a TDI transplant. Over the last few weeks the car started acting up so I jacked up the front end and sure enough there was play on the wheels. Got one side out but can't seem to get the...

    Can't get start back in 95 passat TDI

    Took some fidgeting, but that is almost exactly what I did and just got the bottom one in. Next time will be sure to jack up and keep jacked up during the swap, which hopefully I shouldn't have to do to often. Thanks

    Thanks Abacus, that is what I thought. Man what a bear .... I have loosened the 17 mm cap screw that holds the bell housing to the bracket. Jacked the motor up and still can't get either of the bolts to line up, in fact the bottom one is way off, top one is close. Not sure were to go from...

    B4 days may be ending

    Wife just ran a red light and hit somebody. Its drive-able and she is on her way home. Hood got buckled and sounds like no one was hurt fortunately. We don't have collision on it so I am out of pocket on getting it fixed. May end up selling it :( Sucks being unemployed.

    Not sure on the control arms. The guy over in Mass who did the TDI swap on this GLX I now had to replace the springs .... Car was not riding right after taking the V6 out and putting the TDI in. Maybe I will do the shocks in back and struts in front first.
